Initialize DocCare

 

After first running DocCare, you can open the following URL in a browser. http://localhost:8088/doccare
DocCare will display an initializing web page.
The initializing web page has three parts, basic settings, mail sending service configuration and web setting configuration.


Basic Settings

All the fields of basic settings are required.

Basic settings looks like the figure below:

In basic settings, 'Organization' is a read-only field. The value of the organization is obtained from user account license file.

DocCare will create an administrator account according to the content in basic settings.
The administrator account is the first user account in DocCare. It contains all privileges.
Please keep the administrator account secure.

The config of mail sending service is optional at this moment. You can do it after DocCare initialization.
To configure mail sending service, you can enter menu [Option] ->[Configure Mail Sending Service] to configure or change the settings.
Mail sending service is a basic service in DocCare. DocCare uses it to send messages, notifications, documents and requests, etc.

Note: We recommend that you create a dedicated email account for mail sending service.


Configure Web Settings

Configure Web Settings looks like the figure below:
Initialize DocCare - Configure Web Settings
The config of Web Settings is optional at this moment. You can do it after DocCare initialization.
To configure web settings, you can enter [Option] -> [Configure Web Settings] to configure or change the settings.

Web settings will be used in mail templates.
Normally, most user will change the default localhost to a real host name or IP address.
If you have installed a fire wall or configured network port mapping, and you need to access DocCare outside DocCare, then you should configure the domain name and HTTP port available for users outside the fire wall.
The default web context is 'doccare'. If you need to change this value, you can edit ${BURGEON_HOME}/deploy/20tomcat.sar/conf/module.xml.
