The Unica Interact Message Connector is deployed as a stand-alone web application
on a supported web application server.
Before you begin
Before you can deploy the Message Connector, be sure that
the following tasks have been complete:
- You must have installed the Unica Interact runtime
server. The deployable Message Connector application is automatically
installed along with the runtime server, and is ready to deploy from
your Unica Interact home directory.
- You must also have run the SQL scripts provided with your installation
to create the necessary tables in the Unica Interact runtime
database for use by the Message Connector as described in Creating the Message Connector Tables
About this task
Just as you deploy other applications
on a web application server before you can run them, you must deploy
the Message Connector application to make it available for serving
offers.
Procedure
- Connect to your web application server management interface
with the necessary privileges to deploy an application.
- Follow the instructions for your web application server
to deploy and run the file called
<Unica Interact_home>/msgconnector/MessageConnector.war
Replace <Unica Interact_home> with the actual directory into which the Unica Interact runtime
server is installed.
-
Following steps are needed in case of configuring message connector with JBOSS
-
Add a database module.
-
Note name of Module given at the time of module creation.
-
goto
<INSTALL_DIR>/Interact/msgconnector/MessageConnector.war/WEB-INF/jboss-deployment-structure.xml
uncomment section in dependency and give module name same as given at time of module creation.
For example: - The module created at time JBoss setup for DB2 is ---> com.ibm, then
jboss-depolyment-structure.xml should have entries as shown below: <?xml
version="1.0"
encoding="UTF-8"?><deployment><dependencies><module
name="com.ibm"
export="true"/></dependencies></deployment></jboss-deployment-structure>
Results
The Message Connector is now available for use. After you
have configured your Unica Interact installation
to create the underlying data that the Message Connector will use
to provide offers, such as interactive channels and strategies, flowcharts,
offers, and so on, you can create the links in your electronic media
that the Message Connector will accept.
