Windows
The Windows version is distributed as a self-extracting
.EXE file, containing a graphical installation program.
Run the self-extracting archive file and follow the instructions
given by the installation wizard. You will be prompted to select where
you want to store Challenger.
You can choose to install Challenger as a service, which is
probably what you want if you intend to use it as your web server. You
can also choose to launch Challenger directly after installing.
Starting Challenger
If you installed Challenger as a service it should start itself at
boot-time. Otherwise you start it with the appropriate menu. By default
Challenger will use the configuration port 22202, so connecting to http://localhost:22202/ should take
you to the configuration interface.
You can also start Challenger by double-clicking on the
ntroxenloader.pike program in the install directory.
Running Challenger as a Windows NT Service
You can install Challenger as a service at a later time by running
server\bin\roxen_service.exe -install. You can remove it with
server\bin\roxen_service.exe -remove.
When Challenger is running as a service you start or stop it with
the Services control panel. Or you can run net start
roxen_service or net stop roxen_service.
Uninstalling Challenger
Challenger is uninstalled like any program with the Add/Remove
Programs control panel.
