- .. _wps_install:
- Installing the WPS extension
- ============================
- The WPS module is not a part of GeoServer core, but instead must be installed as an extension. To install WPS:
- #. Navigate to the :website:`GeoServer download page <download>`.
- #. Find the page that matches the exact version of GeoServer you are running.
- .. warning:: Be sure to match the version of the extension with that of GeoServer, otherwise errors will occur.
- #. Download the WPS extension: :download_extension:`wps`
-
- The download link for :guilabel:`WPS` will be in the :guilabel:`Extensions` section under :guilabel:`Other`.
- #. Extract the files in this archive to the :file:`WEB-INF/lib` directory of your GeoServer installation.
- #. Restart GeoServer.
- After restarting, load the :ref:`web_admin`. If the extension loaded properly, you should see an extra entry for WPS in the :guilabel:`Service Capabilities` column. If you don't see this entry, check the logs for errors.

- Configuring WPS
- ---------------
- WPS processes are subject to the same feature limit as the WFS service.
- The limit applies to process **input**, so even processes which summarize data
- and return few results will be affected if applied to very large datasets.
- The limit is set on the :ref:`services_webadmin_wfs` Admin page.
- .. warning:: If the limit is encountered during process execution, no error is given. Any results computed by the process may be incomplete
