Accessing the MarkVision Web Client
Since the MarkVision Web Client is browser-based, you will need to open your browser and point it to
the MarkVision URL:
http://<your server>/markvision
In this URL <your server> is the IP address or hostname of the machine that is running the
MarkVision Server.
Note: If during installation you did not make MarkVision Professional the default server
on your machine, you must use the non-standard port number (9180) in the URL:
http://<your server>:9180/markvision.
Starting the MarkVision Application on a UNIX system
If you are using MarkVision Professional from a UNIX system, you can access MVP from either a
command line or the MarkVision Professional Web Client.
Using the MVP UNIX Client from the command line:
If it is supported by your workstation, you can use the X Window system. To use MarkVision with X,
you must set the display variable.
1 Set the DISPLAY environment variable
• Korn (ksh) and Bourne (sh) shell users type the following:
Display=hostname:0.0
export DISPLAY
Where hostname is the name of your workstation.
• C shell users type the following:
setenv DISPLAY disphost:0.0
2 If you are running the MarkVision Professional UNIX client on a different host computer than
your X server, make sure the remote host has permission to access your display. For
example, if the MVP UNIX client is running on the host flora, type the following in the
command line:
xhost + flora
3 Type mvp in the command line, and then press Enter.
Using the MVP UNIX client from a web browser:
Once the MarkVision web server is configured, a MarkVision web client starts when you connect to
/markvision on that server with your browser.
