Update ART-DECOR configuration
- Log into ART-DECOR. If you run it locally you probably have it running on http://localhost:8080/art-decor, otherwise you go [host]/art-decor
- Go to Configuration > Server settings and check at least the ART server prefix and ART services prefix to see if they match your server hostname/portname.
- Check ART maintenance manual#ART_Server_Settings for details
- Go to Configuration > Users
