CAPS Configuration Tool

To facilitate CAPS configuration, you can use the CAPS Configuration Tool. The CAPS Configuration Tool has been packaged with Simphony releases (since version 18.1) during an installation or upgrade, and is written to the Simphony server to the [Drive letter]:\MICROS\Simphony2\Tools folder, and is named CAPSConfigurator.

If privileged to do so, when you click CAPSConfigurator, use your EMC logon credentials to sign onto the tool. The tool provides an option to upgrade CAPS to future versions of Simphony, create the CAPS database schema on either an Oracle or Microsoft SQL Server database. The tool can also assist you in configuring the service on IIS, and finally, it can authenticate CAPS on existing Services Hosts running instances of CAPS on IIS.

Starting with Simphony 19.6, the CAPS Configuration tool shows the Secure Port number and the secure URL by default. The secure port number is not configurable.
