ecflow_server log files and check point files are created in the current directory by default, and have a prefix <machine_name>.<port_number>. As this allows multiple servers to run on the same machine. If you had previously run the same ecflow_server in the past it will also attempt to recover the suite definition from the check point file.

What to do

1. Type   module load ecflow/4.12.0   to set up up the paths.

2. Create the $HOME/course directory

3. Start the server using ecflow_start.sh -d $HOME/course

4. Make a note of the ECF_HOST and ECF_PORT variables.
5. Note: If in the subsequent sections, you have the need to start a new shell, and want access to the server, then ensure that ECF_PORT is set.(also call module load ecflow/4.
