Starting Phoronix Server on a Windows

[ciderdude]

Hi There

Is there a detailed guide on how to configure the user-config.xml file? I am very new to PTS and I am trying to get the server process running on a Windows system.

I have managed to get to a point where the start-phoromatic-server doesn't produce any errors, but it doesn't seem to do anything either, I am not sure exactly what to expect to be honest, is it supposed to fire up a web browser interface automatically? See the output below, is this what I should expect to see? Is it not supposed to fire off a GUI of some sort at this point?

c:\phoronix-test-suite>phoronix-test-suite start-phoromatic-server

Do you see in the message anywhere on startup a port number? If you do not assign one it will randomly generate one. On Ubuntu, I use the IP assigned to the machine or http://localhost:xxxx in a web browser to access the Web GUI.

user-config.xml in this file (at least for linux) the entries that say random when assigning a port is where you would start to assign a static port for all of them and there are 3 of them in the linux flavor config.
