Installing WEBDEV Application Server (Windows)
Caution: The setup must be performed as computer administrator once the prerequisites have been checked. The serial number and the setup key are required.
In this example, a full setup will be performed in the following directory: "C:\WEBDEV2024\" with the option for hosting sites in earlier versions.
Don't forget to check the option allowing the administrator to be installed as service. Otherwise, you will not be able to connect to the WEBDEV websites if no session is opened on the server.
The installation steps are as follows:
  1. Select the setup language.
  2. Select the type of version to install: full version or 10 connections. In this case, let's install a full version. Enter the serial number and setup key.
  3. Validate the license.
  4. Specify the installation directory (C:\WEBDEV 2024 by default).
  5. In the next step, request the installation of a standalone server.
  6. Specify the root directory for sites and web services.
  7. Specify the advanced parameters (default in this example).
  8. Specify a Windows account to be used as WEBDEV administrator. This account will also be called "Hosting account".
    You can create a new Windows account or use an existing Windows account.
    Select an option and go to the next step.
  1. Specify the remote administration sites to be installed:
    • the WEBDEV Application Server administration site.
    • the HFSQL database administration site.
  2. Enable or disable SaaS management.
  3. Enable or disable the replication server.
  4. Enable or disable the telemetry server.
  5. Enable or disable the WDBaas modules.
  6. Enable or disable external databases.
  7. In the next step, you can specify that a secure connection is required to access all remote administration sites.
  8. Specify whether the ODBC drivers for HFSQL should be installed.
The setup program automatically detects and configures the Web server (IIS in this example). If necessary, the information regarding to the manual configuration of Web server can be found in the WEBDEV online help.
Once the WEBDEV Application Server is installed, you can find the web server for which it is configured and the virtual sites in which it is configured at any time.
To do so, you must:
  1. Start the interface of WEBDEV administrator.
  2. Select the "Advanced" tab and click the "Server" button.
  3. Choose the server in the list.
  4. Click the "Virtual servers" button.
    In the table, simply check the virtual servers in which you want the WEBDEV Application Server to be configured:
You will be able to run one or more dynamic WEBDEV websites (sites in Session or AWP mode) in each virtual server in which the Application Server is configured.
Important security note:
As soon as the WEBDEV Application Server is installed, don't forget to change the password of WEBDEV account (ADMIN account). To do so:
  1. Start the WEBDEV administrator.
  2. In the "Setups/Accounts" tab, click the "Accounts" button.
  3. Double-click the "ADMIN" line.
  4. In the "General" tab, click the "Password" button.
  5. Change the password and confirm.
