Installing a server on Linux via Docker container

Running the ELMA RPA server on Linux requires:

  • operating system: 64-bit Linux family OS;
  • additional software: 19.03.1;
  • processor: 2 cores, 3 GHz and higher (Intel Xeon is recommended);
  • RAM: 4 GB;
  • hard disk: at least 10 GB of free space on a system disk.

The installation process consists of several steps.

Step 1. Copy the archive elma_rpa_server_v1.0.9_linux_amd64_docker.tar to the folder containing the ELMA RPA server (the server root folder).

Port change

After you installed the Orchestrator you need to check its correct operation.

You can only work with the Orchestrator using the supported web-browsers Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox. In the browser address bar enter the server address or name and a port for connection: http://<server_address>:<port>. The default port is 48080.

You can change the port if it is occupied by another application.

To do this, perform the following actions (illustrated on Linux):

  1. Edit the rpa_server_docker/docker-compose.yml file.

  1. Edit the rpa_server_docker/dockerfile/envoy-compose/envoy.yaml file.
