The MixConfig Tool
Since creating a Mix configuration for operating a Mix server is quite a
complex task, we developed a configuration tool called MixConfig. It is
both a tool for creating the XML file that is used later on by your Mix server,
as well as a certificate management tool for the server's cryptographic keys.
MixConfig is a Java application which runs on Java 1.6 and above. The tool can
be downloaded from this page or
directly from here. The
MixConfig tool can be started by typing the following command:
java -jar MixConfig.jar
You can query a list of possible options with
java -jar MixConfig.jar --help
Please note: This is a graphical tool that you cannot run on
your Mix server. You need a desktop environment (Windows, Mac OS X, X Windows)
for using the tool.
Start Screen
The MixConfig tool has two modes of operation: The wizard mode, where
you get complete guidance to create the configuration file for your Mix, and
the expert mode, where you have some more options, but less support.
(See also View menu for further details). If you
choose one of the following options, the MixConfig tool will start in the
wizard mode:
- Create new configuration
Creates a new configuration with default values.
- Load/Resume existing configuration
Loads a configuration from a file.
