Transcription

1 Guided Exercise 1.1: Setting up the sample OpenEdge Data Object Services Overview Before you can develop a web app, you must set up the back-end services for the data providers that the web app will use. In this Guided Exercise you will extract the database files for the sample application and start the Database Server for the Sports3000 database. Then you will import the ABL Web App project that contains pre-written OpenEdge Data Object Service code into Progress Developer Studio for OpenEdge and modify some workspace configuration settings. Finally, you will deploy the OpenEdge Data Object Services to an instance of PAS for OpenEdge, which is the application server that hosts the sample application. These deployed OpenEdge Data Object Services will be the source of the data for the web app that you create in this course. This exercise has 3 parts. The exercise steps take approximately 30 minutes to complete. You perform this exercise in your live version of Progress OpenEdge and Kendo UI Builder by Progress. Important: If you already have a Developer Studio workspace where you have deployed the OpenEdge Data Object Services for SportsInc from the course Creating Progress OpenEdge Data Object Services for Kendo UI Builder, you can continue using that workspace (\progress_education\openedge\pdo-kuib\workspace) for this course. Before you begin Before you begin, you must: Step Description 1. Complete the course setup instructions to extract the course files to the \progress_education\openedge\kuib directory. 2. Ensure that Progress Developer Studio for OpenEdge (V ) is installed. 3. Ensure that Kendo UI Builder by Progress: OpenEdge Edition (V 1.0) is installed. 4. Ensure the Admin Service for Progress OpenEdge 11.6 is running. Hint: Use the Windows Service Viewer to check it and start it if necessary. Location of files: Exercise files: \progress_education\openedge\kuib\exercise\lesson01

2 Guided Exercise 1.1: Setting up the sample OpenEdge Data Object Services, Steps Steps, Part 1 Starting the Database Server Note: If you will be using the \progress_education\openedge\pdo- KUIB\workspace from the course, Creating Progress OpenEdge Data Object Services for Kendo UI Builder, you can skip this part of the exercise. Before you can test the web app, the database for the application (Sports3000) must be started. Follow these steps to set up and start the database that is used for the sample application for this course. Step Task 1. Extract the files in Sports3000_OE116.zip to C:\OpenEdge\WRK. The files extracted are the database files, as well as a sub-folder of database triggers. 2. Open a Proenv window by selecting Start > Progress > OpenEdge > Proenv. 3. Start the database server for the sports3000 database as follows: proserve sports3000 H localhost S 9999 Note: If port 9999 is unavailable on your system, use a different port number. 4. Close the Proenv window.
