Tutorial ======== Once Orthanc is installed, you can test your installation with: $ xdg-open http://localhost:8042/app/explorer.html Then click on the "Upload" button, drag/drop a DICOM file, click on the "Start the upload" button, and you should be going. For more info, check out the Orthanc Book, starting with the "Quickstart" section: http://book.orthanc-server.com/index.html Optimizing boot time ==================== If the postgresql package is installed on the local host, the Orthanc service will start after PostgreSQL service. This is because Orthanc can be configured to use PostgreSQL as its database back-end instead of the default SQLite back-end (cf. the "orthanc-postgresql" package). This dependency of Orthanc against PostgreSQL can slightly impair the boot time if Orthanc is configured to use SQLite or an external PostgreSQL server. If you wish to optimize your boot time, you can safely remove "postgresql" from the following part of "/etc/init.d/orthanc": >>>>> # Should-Start: postgresql # Should-Stop: postgresql <<<<< provided that the 2 following conditions are both met: (1) Orthanc uses SQLite OR an external PostgreSQL server, AND (2) the local "postgresql" package is installed.
