Now it's time to set up your local machine to log into the software. The saved information from the previous section are the URLs and IP addresses referenced below.
Leave the current terminal window open and open a second terminal window. Enter the following command:
sudo nano /etc/hosts
It will then ask for your password, enter your password when asked.
In the host record, add the IP addresses and URLs from your copied information where needed.
The copied data may show 2 IP addresses, then the URL. You only want to focus on the 2nd IP address.
Control + X = exit the doc
Y = to save
Enter = to save as the same document name
Open a browser and navigate to your local web site's URL. Be sure to include the "http://" in the URL. The site will open. If you encounter any errors feel free to ignore them.
Open a new browser tab after opening your URL and navigate to the WEB API Login URL. You might be prompted with an error about safety. This is warning you that, though the URL is "https://" (secure), the site is actually not secured by an SSL certificate. Since this URL was just generated it's understandable that there isn't an SSL certificate, so there isn't an issue. Feel free to continue with the login and move past this warning. Now log into the web client.
Open the ERP Desktop client. Enter the required access information and login. You will be prompted for a registration key. Enter the information that has been delivered to you by xTuple. If your don't have a registration key, reach out to your contact at xTuple for more information.
