7.  Start the JSCAPE MFT Server Service.  Service will start automatically following installation.  If service is not started then you may start it manually as root user using the ./start_service.sh command from a terminal shell prompt.

 

In order to have service start automatically upon system reboot edit the /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.jscape.MFTServer.plist file and set the value for the OnDemand parameter to false.

 

8.  Verify that JSCAPE MFT Server Service is running using the following commands from your shell prompt:

 

netstat -a | grep 10880

netstat -a | grep 11880

 

where 10880 is the listening port for JSCAPE MFT Server Service, and 11880 is listening port for REST web service.
