Upload your Oxygen plugin

To use a new plugin for IXIASOFT CCMS Web, it must be uploaded to CCMS Web.

You must have access to the Apache Tomcat server, which might require direct access if it is not exposed externally. Therefore, if you are a CCMS administrator, you might require assistance from IT staff.
Note: In a dedicated SaaS deployment, you cannot directly access the Oxygen XML Web Author Component. Contact IXIASOFT Customer Support about uploading your Oxygen XML Web Author framework extension.
  1. Open the administration page of the Oxygen Web Author Component by entering the following URL in a browser:
    http://host name:TOMCAT_HTTP_PORT/oxygen-webapp/app/oxygen.html

    Where for host name and TOMCAT_HTTP_PORT:

    • host name is the name of the machine where you installed the Apache Tomcat service
    • TOMCAT_HTTP_PORT is the value you specified in the properties.txt file for that parameter

    For example: http://localhost:8080/oxygen-webapp/app/oxygen.html

  2. At the top of the web page, click Administration Page.
  3. Enter the Apache Tomcat username and password.

    The username and password are the TOMCAT_USER and TOMCAT_PASSWORD values you specified in the properties.txt file for those parameters.

  4. In the left pane, click Plugins.
  5. Click Upload plugin.
  6. Select the plugin that you want to install, and click Open.
    Important: Depending on the size of the plugin, it might take a few minutes and does not display a progress indicator. Do not click anywhere else while the plugin is uploading. Once the plugin is uploaded, it should appear highlighted in green on the Plugins page.
  7. Restart the IXIASOFT CCMS service.
  8. Save the plugin file in a place you can reference later.
    Tip: Keep a copy of the dita-company folder with your backups of the Content Store in case you need to update your plugin folder again. You can save this plugin there.
