How to Copy Files to the Remote Server
- From the computer where Flare is installed, use Windows File Explorer to navigate to the Elasticsearch folder (e.g., C:\Program Files\MadCap Software\MadCap Flare 20\Flare.app\Resources\Elasticsearch).
-
Copy the Elasticsearch folder to the remote server computer (e.g., C:\Elasticsearch). (If you copy files to this location, you may receive a message requiring administrative permission for this action. Click Continue.)
Note The Elasticsearch folder can be copied anywhere on the computer. It is also better to keep the Elasticsearch folder outside of the web server for security purposes.
- Navigate to the Web.ContentServices folder from the location where you have Flare installed (e.g., C:\Program Files\MadCap Software\MadCap Flare 20\Flare.app\Resources\WebHelp2\ContentServices\Web.ContentServices).
-
Copy the Web.ContentServices folder to the web server folder of the remote server (e.g., C:\inetpub\wwwroot). (If you copy files to this location, you may receive a message requiring administrative permission. Click Continue.)
