Install the Three Components

The simplest way to install is to run the single RasterexInstaller.exe file as Administrator. It installs Backend Engine, Rasterex Backend, and Rasterex Canvas in sequence.

• Right-click RasterexInstaller.exe and select "Run as administrator"
• Accept the Backend Engine (RxView360) license agreement when prompted
• Wait for all three packages to install
• Installation completes automatically
• Read more about Backend Engine (RxView360)

For scripted deployments, use command-line options. Open an elevated PowerShell prompt.

# Install with logging
.\RasterexInstaller.exe /log "%TEMP%\RasterexInstaller.exe.log"

# Silent install (Note: Backend Engine may still show license UI)
.\RasterexInstaller.exe /quiet /norestart /log "%TEMP%\RasterexInstaller.exe.log"

Confirm that the installer completed before beginning the required configuration steps.

• Check IIS Manager -> Sites for "Rasterex Canvas"
• Verify backend files exist at C:\Program Files\RasterexBackend
• Confirm the Canvas site binding is configured for port 4203

The installer is complete, but the local system is not ready to test until Rasterex Backend and Canvas are configured.

• Configure Rasterex Backend: set the database connection, start the backend, and seed common data.
• Configure Canvas: set the Backend Engine and Rasterex Backend service URLs.
• Verify local installation.
