Altova MobileTogether Server Advanced Edition

This topic describes the installation and setup of MobileTogether Server on macOS systems.

 

Uninstall MobileTogether Server

Before uninstalling MobileTogether Server, stop the service with the following command:

 

sudo launchctl unload /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.altova.MobileTogetherServer.plist  

 

To check whether the service has been stopped, open the Activity Monitor in Finder and make sure that MobileTogether Server is not in the list. In the Applications folder in Finder, right-click the MobileTogether Server icon and select Move to Trash. The application will be moved to Trash. You will, however, still need to remove the application from the usr folder. Do this with the following command:

 

sudo rm -rf /usr/local/Altova/MobileTogetherServer/

 

If you need to uninstall an old version of Altova LicenseServer, you must first stop it running as a service. Do this with the following command:

 

sudo launchctl unload /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.altova.LicenseServer.plist

 

To check whether the service has been stopped, open the Activity Monitor in Finder and make sure that LicenseServer is not in the list. Then proceed to uninstall in the same way as described above for MobileTogether Server.

 

Install MobileTogether Server

To install MobileTogether Server, do the following:

 

1.Download the disk image (.dmg) file of MobileTogether Server from the Altova website (https://www.altova.com/download.html).

2.Click to open the downloaded disk image (.dmg). This causes the MobileTogether Server installer to appear as a new virtual drive on your computer.

3.On the new virtual drive, double-click the installer package (.pkg).

4.Go through the successive steps of the installer wizard. These are self-explanatory and include one step in which you have to agree to the license agreement before being able to proceed. See also Licensing MobileTogether Server.

5.To eject the drive after installation, right-click it and select Eject.

 

The MobileTogether Server package will be installed in the folder:

 

/usr/local/Altova/MobileTogetherServer (application binaries)

/var/Altova/MobileTogetherServer (data files: database and logs)

 

The MobileTogether Server server daemon starts automatically after installation and a re-boot of the machine. You can always start MobileTogether Server as a daemon with the following command:

 

sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.altova.MobileTogetherServer.plist

 

After starting the MobileTogether Server server daemon, you can open the Web UI page of MobileTogether Server in order to configure MobileTogether Server. Open this page by going to the Applications folder in Finder and double-clicking the MobileTogether Server icon there.
