Top Level Directory Structure

The top level Civic Platform installation directory contains several main subdirectories that store key Civic Platform components. See Top Level Directory Structure in Civic Platform Destination Folder. For description on each directory, see Civic Platform Top-Level Directory Structure.

The top level directory also contains the server cmd files for starting the server services. For example, you can click the run.av.ads.cmd file to start the application server service.


Note:

If you manually start a server service by clicking the cmd file, make sure that the corresponding service in Services is not started. Otherwise, the server may not function properly due to conflict between the services.
