Run directly
You can now run the MapTiler Server using the following command:
maptiler-server
The MapTiler Server will start in the current directory. A randomly generated password for the administration interface will be generated and printed in the command line. Use this password to sign in at http://localhost:3650/admin where you can also change the password to something else.
You can also specify a different working directory (using a --workDir option), change the default port (--port), and set the administration password to a specific value (--adminPassword).
Run maptiler-server --help to see all the available options.
Running as a systemd service
Part of the Linux installation package is a script for optionally installing MapTiler Server as a systemd service.
Run maptiler-server-servicify to start the interactive installation, which will allow you to specify the desired root directory, network port, and administration password and it will create the systemd service specification and start the service.
Production deployment behind Nginx or Apache servers
