The content of this chapter is intended for system administrators. Here, you can learn how to install and configure Web Application Platform with Cameo Collaborator and other services used with Teamwork Cloud.
Installation prerequisites and other important information
Before installing Web Application Platform with services, you need to:
- Have a working instance of Teamwork Cloud.
- Download the Web_App_Platform_<version number>_win64.exe file.
- Have access to the KeyStore file with the same certificate that is used in Teamwork Cloud for authentication configuration.
Before starting the installation, you should know the following:
- We recommend installing Web Application Platform and Teamwork Cloud on different machines.
- Before installing Web Application Platform, make sure to note down Zookeeper, Cassandra, Teamwork Cloud, and the FlexNet 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.
- After installing Web Application Platform, it is recommended to stop the WebApp service on the machine where Teamwork Cloud is installed.
To install Web Application Platform and services (advanced installation)
- Run the Web_App_Platform_<version number>_win64.exe file as an administrator to start the installation wizard.
- Specify the location where you want to install Web Application Platform and click Next.
- Select the Advanced Install radio button and click Next.
- Follow the on-screen instructions in the installation wizard and click Next after each step.
When the Pre-Installation Summary is displayed, check if all the installation properties are specified correctly and click Install.
- After successful installation, click Next.
- If you do not want to start the WebApp service right after installation, clear the Start WebApp Service check box.
- Click Done to close the installation wizard.
- Go to the <install_root>\WebAppPlatform\shared\conf directory and open for editing the authserver.properties file.

Web Application Platform is now installed with the selected services. To access Web Application Platform, open a web browser and go to http(s)://<domain_name>:<port>/webapp.
