Prerequisites: web server and FTP server (optional)
The WEBDEV Application Server requires a web server. In Windows, the web server installed by default is "Internet Information Services", called IIS. This server is managed automatically, this is why it was chosen in this document. The Apache Web Server can also be used but its configuration will not be presented here.
By default, remote site installations and updates are performed via HTTP.
Remark: You can also install and update sites remotely via FTP. In this case, an FTP server is required. IIS includes an FTP server, this is the one that will be used in this document.
In order for the WEBDEV Application Server to manage IIS automatically, IIS must be installed with some specific options.

  1. In the "Start" menu of Windows, right-click "Computer" and select "Manage".
