WEBDEV administrator: Setups
The "Setups" tab allows you to configure the different administration features of the WEBDEV Application Server. Details of the "Setups" tab The "Setups" tab allows you to: - Configure the server for the site installations and updates.
- Manage the installation log file.
- Manage WEBDEV Application Server updates.
Application installation and updates These options allow the server administrator to authorize and configure remote installations and updates. The different options are as follows: - Allow updating connection parameters
Enables the server administrator to allow the customization of connection parameters when installing a site via FTP or HTTP. If this option is checked, the connection options defined by the site creator will be taken into account. If this option is unchecked, only the connection options defined in this tab by the server administrator will be taken into account. The custom options will be ignored. Note: WEBDEV websites can be installed and updated remotely via FTP or HTTP. For more details, see Remote deployment. - Allow remote site installation
Enables the server administrator to allow the installation of dynamic WEBDEV websites on the server via FTP. - Allow remote site update
Enables the server administrator to allow the update of sites installed on the server via FTP or HTTP. - Allow installing sites with same name for different users:
Enables the administrator to allow the deployment of several sites with the same name on different WEBDEV accounts on the same hosting server. This option is very useful for shared hosting. - "Activate the following page to list installed applications: http[s]:///":
Enables the administrator to allow the use of the following syntax "http[s]://<server>/" to list the sites hosted on the server. In this case, the "http[s]://<server>/" syntax shows a page with a link to each site installed on the server. - "Prevent access to directories of other WEBDEV accounts":
Indicates whether the option that prevents users from accessing directories of other WEBDEV accounts was enabled when installing the WEBDEV Application Server. This option is particularly useful for shared servers. This option cannot be modified directly.
Installation log file The installation log file contains records of the installed elements of a site. This log is particularly useful if you need to contact Technical Support in case you encounter any errors during deployment. To use the installation log, simply specify the full path of the corresponding file ("WDInstall_log.txt" file by default). WEBDEV Application Server update - The "Lock server (for update)" option simplifies updating the WEBDEV Application Server by preventing new users from logging on. Each time users try to connect to one of the sites on the server, they receive a message indicating the site is temporarily unavailable, and prompting them to try again later. Users who are already connected can continue to use the current WEBDEV site.
Note: When the WEBDEV website is updated via FTP or HTTP, it is automatically locked. - The major and minor version numbers of the WEBDEV Application Server are displayed.
- The "Update server..." button is used to manually update the WEBDEV Application Server.. In the window that opens, you can choose the version to install.
- Enable automatic update: Enables automatic WEBDEV Application Server updates. For more details, see WEBDEV Application Server automatic update.
