Dewarping of Axis hemispheric cameras does not work through web service

Affected platforms

exacqVision web service 7.4

<br>

Symptom

The Axis dewarping library uses OpenGL and therefor will not work when launched as a Windows service or without access to X Windows in Linux.

<br>

Workaround

Run the webservice as an application rather than a service.

In Windows:
1. Start => Run cmd enter
2. Run the command “c:\Program Files (x86)\exacqVision\WebService\bin\evws-frontend.exe” debug
NOTE: The quotes are required

In Linux:
1. Open the terminal
2. Run command /usr/local/exacq/webservice/webservice

<br>

Resolution

Any fix is dependent on Axis modifying how their dewarping libraries work.
