Installation prerequisites and other important information
Before installing Web Application Platform with services, you need to:
- Have a working instance of Magic Collaboration Studio.
- If you intend to install the Cameo Collaborator for Teamwork Cloud service, make sure that DSLS or the FlexNet license server is installed beforehand.

- Increase the open file limit for the OS (or for Web Application Platform/Tomcat) to a minimum of 20 000 files.
- Have access to the KeyStore file with the same certificate that is used in Magic Collaboration Studio for authentication configuration.
Before starting the installation, you should know the following:
- We recommend installing Web Application Platform and Magic Collaboration Studio on different machines.
- Before installing Web Application Platform, make sure to note down Zookeeper, Cassandra, Magic Collaboration Studio, and the license server information (e.g., hostname and port), as well as the KeyStore file location (you can find it in the <install_root>/TeamworkCloud/configuration directory). You will need this data during installation.
