Troubleshooting
The two directories that were copied in the deployment should be found in c:\users\<login account>\
There should be directories:
c:\users\<login account>\appworx\
c:\users\<login account>\apwxproditec\
Within the first directory there should be another directory with two files
c:\users\<login account>\appworx\APWXPROD\user_keystore
c:\users\<login account>\appworx\APWXPROD\user_keystore_config
Within the second directory there should be the following:
A zip file of the Java release used by the Appworx client.
RunClient.jar file
A StartClient.log file
jre directory (jre17 currently)
A log directory
A client.properties file
Debug Help
The StartClient.log file and the log directory should provide information if the client is not starting.
