WEBDEV Concepts

214 Part 7: Deploying a Web site 4. Configuring the site . These options are used to configure the options for connecting to the site after its setup. These parameters can be modified if necessary: • by the deployment administrator found on the server. • by the remote administrator, that can be used by the site manager. 5.  If the analysis was updated, select the automatic modification of data files . Remark : if this option is selected, the update will be proposed during the setup. Special case : If the data files found on the server are in Hyper File 5.5 format, they must be migrated to HFSQL Classic format. This migration must be performed during the first site update. 6. Specify whether your site uses the Native AS/400 Connector . Reminder: if your site uses the Native AS/400 Connector, the AS/400 DLLs must be installed on the Web server. If you are using a license for a limited number of computers, the number of current connections must be managed in the WEBDEV site (INI file or registry, etc.). Summary of elements installed as well as their location : Site server Data server Directory of WEBDEV sites of user N Data directory of user N Directory defined by the hosting company. A subdirectory will be created in this directory for each site of user N. Directory defined by the hosting company. A subdirectory will be created in this directory for the data files of each site of user N. The HTML pages, the library (".WDL") and the image directory are installed in this subdirectory. ".FIC", ".NDX" and ".MMO" files are installed in this data subdirectory. Example: The directory of sites for user N is "C:\ UserN\WEBDEV sites". The user N installs his site named "Boat". This site will be installed in the "C:\UserN\WEBDEV sites\ Boat" directory. Example : The data directory of user N is "D:\UserN\ WEBDEV data". The user N installs his site named "Boat". By default, the data files will be installed in the "D:\UserN\ WEBDEV data\Boat" directory. 3 Deployment by deployment package 3.1 Steps The deployment steps are as follows: 1. Creating the deployment package from the editor: on the "Project" tab, in the "Generation" group, expand "Deploy site" and select "Generate and deploy site". In the wizard, select "Create a remote deployment package". A setup file is created. 2. Sending the deployment package (via the Internet) to the web server administrator (hosting company, for example). 3. Installing the WEBDEV Application Server at the hosting company (optional step). For more details, see the documentation about the WEBDEV Application Server. 4. The hosting company creates a deployment account (via the Hosting Control Center) and an FTP account (in the FTP server) if necessary. 5. Running the deployment package on a computer and installing the WEBDEV site. 6. On-lining the WEBDEV site.
