New setup

There is a new installation routine for Intrexx Steady Track. This simplifies the installation under Linux in particular.

Linux

In the course of the installation, you can now create or select a technical user directly via Intrexx, who will be used to execute the installation. You can also select "root" as the user if your company's security policy allows it.

Therefore, it is no longer necessary to create corresponding users via a Linux terminal before the Intrexx installation.

The new installation routine also eliminates the need to stop and restart Intrexx services under Linux.

Components

When selecting the components, the "Intrexx Portal Manager" option is no longer available with the Intrexx Steady Track. This is related to improvements related to the Portal Manager. More information is available in the section Portal Manager vs. Portal Manager (server).

Detailed information on the new setup or installing Intrexx is available in the following sections:

• Windows - Install Intrexx

• Linux - Install Intrexx

Update process

A new, significantly simplified update procedure has been implemented for theIntrexx Steady Track.

If updates are available, you will be informed about them in the Portal Manager via a message window.

Portal Manager vs. Portal Manager (server)

In the Intrexx Steady Track, the Intrexx Portal Manager is available in two versions: Portal Manager (Server) and Portal Manager.

In both versions, the Portal Manager has all components for developing, customizing and administering Intrexx portals. The permissions for the portal users for applications and data are also controlled here. You can connect to an Intrexx Portal Server and administrate the portals on the start page of the Portal Manager.

Portal Manager (Server) and Portal Manager differ in the following ways.

Portal Manager (Server) The Portal Manager (Server) is always installed along with the Intrexx Portal Server. It cannot be installed separately from the Portal Server. The Portal Manager (Server) must always be available in the corresponding version for the Intrexx Portal Server. You can update the Intrexx Portal Server with the Portal Manager (Server).

Portal Manager The Portal Manager does not need to be installed. You can download it and start right away. The Portal Manager can connect to different versions of the Intrexx Server. It automatically adjusts its own version to the version of the Portal Server (upgrade and downgrade). You cannot update the Intrexx Portal Server with the Portal Manager.

More detailed information about synchronizing the Portal Manager with the Portal Server is available in the following section:
