Working with Hippo (a Java CMS)

Difficulty:

Getting started
We will run Hippo CMS via the Jetty Application Container,
which is included in the Quickstart
Hippo CMS download package.
Download it and unzip it. For example:
D:Projectshippo-ecm

Make sure a Java JDK is installed:

See my other blog post

Open the windows command line and type: start.bat
in the folder where Hippo CMS is installed.
For example:

D:Projectshippo-ecmstart.bat

When this line is returned in your prompt:

SelectChannelConnector@127.0.0.1:8080

you can open a new browser window, and locate:
http://localhost:8080/cms/

Login to Hippo with: username = admin and password = admin.

Change the admin password
Click on the ‘gear icon’, to access the control panel.
Click, on the ‘users’ panel, ‘admin’ user, ’set password’.

Users  User: admin  Set password for admin

Type in your new password and press Save.
In the user panel, you can also create new users and user groups.
