An XSL processor accepts the XML data from the Application Server, converts it to HTML, and returns it to the server. You must have at least one XSL processor running in order for Information Portal to display properly. By default, the installation program installs an initial XSL processor on your Application Server.
If you create additional XSL processors on other machines to handle a larger number of users accessing Information Portal, you must tell the Application Server where they are located.
Depending upon the size of your library and the number of users that you expect to access Information Portal at any given time, you may want to have multiple XSL processors running simultaneously. The hardware configuration of your library determines how you choose to set up the necessary XSL processors, but you do not have to have a separate machine for each processor. You can have multiple XSL processors installed on the Application Server or on other machines. (For example, you could have four XSL processors installed to handle the number of users that you have accessing Information Portal. Those four processors could all be on the Application Server, or they could be split between two other machines.)
This section explains these topics:

• | Changing XSL Processor Settings |

Before You Begin
You need to install Java and the XSL processor software on the machine where you want to run the XSL processor. You can install the processor on a Windows, UNIX, or Linux machine.
To install the processor do these tasks in this order:
• | Installing Java |
• | Installing an XSL Processor |
• | Starting an XSL Processor |
(For instructions on completing these tasks, see the Application Suite Installation and Upgrade Directory for your specific operating system. For instructions on starting any other Information Portal components or services, see Starting and Stopping Processes for Information Portal.)
