Configure the Oracle Empirica Signal software

Before you can use Oracle Empirica Signal, you must configure the Oracle Empirica Signal software.

For information about each task, see the User Guide and Online Help.

1. In a Web browser window, navigate to the login page, for example:

   https://< server name >:7004/Signal

   Note:

   This example is for a site that requires SSL and does not use single sign-on.

   If your site does not require SSL, use:

   http://< server name >:7003/Signal

   If your site uses SSO, use the native login port that Oracle or the administrator who configured SSO for the application provided to you.

   If the login page appears, the site is set up correctly.

2. Enter the credentials necessary to log in as the admin user.
   • Username—admin
   • Password—The password you created in Set the passwords of the system and admin users.

   Note:

   For upgrades, use the credentials from your previous installation.

   If this is a new installation, you are prompted to change your password.

   1. Change the password.

      You are logged out of the application.

   2. Log in as the admin user with the new password.

      The home page appears.

3. Set your site options.
   1. Click Settings and then click Set Site Options.

      The Site Options page appears.

   2. Verify the SMTP server name.
   3. If R is installed on your system, and you set the rgps parameters in the listener.properties file, select Enable RGPS Option in MGPS Data Mining Runs.

      Alternatively, verify that the option is deselected.

      For more information, see Set up the listener.properties file.

   4. In the following fields, specify the email address for your support team:
      • From Email Address
      • Error Email

      The default email address is for the Oracle Empirica Signal support team ([e-mail]).

   5. Verify that all other site options are set correctly.
   6. Click Save.
4. Click Exit.

   You are logged out.

5. If your site uses SSO, create a new user and test the SSO login:
   1. Create an SSO user in your SSO application, if it does not already exist.
   2. If you self-host Oracle Empirica Signal and use Oracle Access Manager for SSO, create the same user in the Oracle Empirica Signal application.

      If Oracle hosts your instance of Oracle Empirica Signal, you do not need to perform this step.

   3. In a Web browser window, navigate to the login page.
   4. Log in as the newly created SSO user.

      The home page appears.

   5. Click Exit.

      You are logged out.
