- What will be required for the setup
This document is a tutorial intended to remind you of the different steps required to configure a new Windows computer for a WEBDEV Application Server. This document is not exhaustive, additional information is available in the first section of this book. Configuration of this example: - Operating system of server: Windows Server 2008/2012
- Web server: IIS
- FTP server (for the remote setups): IIS
Hosting and maintaining a Web server are not easy things to do, it is a tough job, requiring specific skills regarding: - the operating system of server.
- the Web server used.
- the FTP server used.
- the management of rights.
- the WEBDEV application server.
If you do not possess these skills, we recommend that you have your site hosted by a professional company. If you want to host your WEBDEV site, choose a server according to your own skills. What will be required for the setup The following elements are required: - The WEBDEV Application Server setup package (with the serial number and setup key).
- A Windows administrator account of the computer (with the rights to create a Windows user account and a group of Windows users).
- A Web server (IIS for this example).
- An FTP server for the remote setups (IIS for this example).
- An HFSQL Client/Server server (optional).
By default, the 64-bit version of the WEBDEV Application Server is installed. Make sure that all the desired features (including access to databases) are available. Remarks: - In the WEBDEV editor, you can test the site using WEBDEV Application Server 32-bit (default) or 64-bit ("Debug in 64-bit" option).
- For the HFSQL server, we advise you to install the 64-bit version. Indeed, if a large number of connections are established and each of these connections performs many operations, the 2 GB memory limit of the 32-bit server may be reached more quickly.
Furthermore, the same features are supported regardless of the version of HFSQL server (32 or 64-bit). It is seamless for the WEBDEV sites and WINDEV applications that connect to it: they can be 32 or 64-bit, Linux, Mac, etc.
