Verifying the Click Through Daemon Installation


To verify the Click Through Daemon installation was successful, you start the Click Through Daemon and then perform the installation test. For information about testing how the Email Marketing components and the Marketing Component Group work together, see Process of Testing the Email Marketing Components with Siebel Marketing.

Starting the Click Through Daemon on a Windows Server

The following procedure describes how to start the Click Through Daemon on a Windows server.

To start the Click Through Daemon on a Windows Server

  1. From the Start menu, choose Settings and then the Control Panel menu item.
  2. In Control Panel, choose Administrative Tools and then Services.
  3. Right-click the ctd service and select Start.

Starting the Click Through Daemon on a UNIX Server

The following procedure describes how to start the Click Through Daemon on a UNIX server.

To start the Click Through Daemon on a UNIX server

  1. Open a window and navigate to the Click Through Daemon install directory.
  2. Enter and run the following command:

    ./tomcat-ctl.sh start &

  3. Optionally, you can enter and run the following commands:

    ./tomcat-ctl.sh start &; tail -f logs/ctd.log

    NOTE:  The first command (./tomcat-ctl.sh start &) launches the daemon. The second command (tail -f logs/ctd.log) displays output to the ctd log as it is running without generating a read lock on the file. A read lock would prevent the tail command from working.
