Configure MIRC server to install RadPix

Here are the instructions to run/install the program via the MIRC server: Contact info@radpix.com for specific installation files. The result of this is that all clients that are installed via the MIRC server will be automatically configured as described below.

Create a folder "install" in

• C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0\webapps\ROOT
• This allows you to access files via the server with the URL:
  • http://MIRC IP ADDRESS HERE/install/

Unzip the install zip file that was sent to you and put all the files and the folder in

• C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0\webapps\ROOT\install

One of the configuration files on the MIRC server must be modified in order to Deploy .Net Applications". The file is C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0\conf\web.xml. You can either modify your own file, or download a modified file from [1].

• To edit it yourself, open the web.xml file and add the following mime mapping lines towards the end of the file with the rest of the mime mappings.

    
    <mime-mapping>
        <extension>application/extension>
        <mime-type>application/x-ms-application/mime-type>
    </mime-mapping>    
    <mime-mapping>
        <extension>manifest/extension>
        <mime-type>application/x-ms-manifest/mime-type>
    </mime-mapping>    
    <mime-mapping>
        <extension>deploy/extension>
        <mime-type>application/octet-stream/mime-type>
    </mime-mapping>
    

A configuration file called MIRCConfig.xml will be included with the installation files and must be placed in:

• C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0\webapps\ROOT\install
• You can edit this file as desired, as long as it is a valid XML file. This configures all PCs that are installed/run from the MIRC server with your specific info. Additional options which may be preconfigured include
  • url (base MIRC server, including port number if not 80)
  • ss (storage service name)
  • copyright
  • autopasteclipboard (RadPix monitors the clipboard and automatically inserts an image when an image is copied to clipboard. Values are true or false.)
  • locked (locks down the configuration values. Values are true or false.) This also prevents the clients from saving documents to the workstations, in the case of locked down workstations. RadPix is installed essentially as a web plugin, and can only save files to the temporary files area of the logged in user.
  • CaptureDelay (time in msec before a screen capture is run. May be useful on some PACS and slower workstations. Default is 50 msec.)
  • PHI (allows user to enter protected health information, i.e. patient name and identification number. Values are true or false.)
  • logMIRC (allows server to log access to cases. Values are true or false.)
  • tabicon (allows thumbnail options when viewing case in MIRC. Enumerated values are image, icon, none.)
  • Solr (allows uploading cases to Apache Solr server. Values are true or false.)

Install the program via

• • http://MIRC IP ADDRESS HERE/install/install.html
• Note: You need to add the port number to "MIRC IP ADDRESS HERE" if you are not using port 80.

Free software Utility tool from Weadock Software, LLC.

Create many MIRC users with Add Users Tool. This is very useful when first starting a MIRC site. It will statr with a file containing username, password, and user, and create the required tomcat-users.xml and authors.xml files. Highly recommended. Will definitely save time when first starting a MIRC server.
