IV: Access and Management

Running your new Hyrax Application

Starting up your application

After completing the previous instructions, the Hyrax application should be ready for initial development. The next steps will assist you in accessing the application's user interface as well as the Fedora repository and Solr engine.

• In your previously used terminal or in a new one, ensure that you are within the application's root directory. In order to initiate the rails server for your Hyrax application, run the command rails hydra:server. Once it renders and initiates the server configurations, you can access it by opening up your web browser of choice (Google Chrome in this example) and in the address bar use the URL Localhost:3000. You will see the the default welcome page for Rails confirming that the run was successful.

Fedora4 and Solr

• In your terminal, during the execution of the of the rails server and before the => Booting Puma script , you will see two lines that read:

  Fedora: http://#.#.#.#:#####/rest

  Solr..: http://#.#.#.#:####/solr/hydra-development

These address can be put into your web browsers address bar on different tabs in order to view the Fedora and Solr admin UI's.
