OpenInfoMan Installation

• Install Openinfoman with below steps <source lang='bash'> $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:openhie/release $ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get install openinfoman </source> Type 'https://localhost:5000' when asked for 'Base URL' (replace localhost with the public IP for which OpenInfoMan is running). This will make OpenInfoMan accessible with an address https://localhost:5000/CSD
• Now disable port 8984 from public access and make it accessible through localhost only.

NB: Username and Password filled when creating client in OpenHIM is the one that will be used to login to OpenInfoMan
