Knowage Server Home Page Differs From Knowage 6.x CE Documentation

Question

The Server Manager (home) page of my Knowage 6.1 server does not have the same tools as shown in the CE documentation (Page 102 of the English version).  For example, there is no "Server Manager" sub menu.

Are these menus and tools supposed to be available in the CE version or did you use an image from the enterprise version in the CE documentation?

The only "problem" that might explain this that I could see might be some "INFO" level log messages on start up.

Thank you.

Answer 1

Yes, you are right.

Some of the features, such us the ones under the Server Manager submenu, are available only in the Enterprise Edition.

We will review the documentation of Knowage CE to correct such wrong images.

I've read the comparison already and you'll see a second question from me regarding other things I didn't find in the CE edition.

I realize that this is free software, that it belongs to you, and that I have no right to ask anything more of you.  However, I work in an extremely large company (350,000+ employees) and for Knowage to have any chance of establishing any presence there, let alone the use of the Enterprise version, I need help figuring some things out.

Thank you for the response.
