Hi Mike,

We use 4D 2004 Runtime VL with the 4D Web Server and A4D.

Make sure you have your license numbers entered correctly. In the Build Application Licenses tab you must have your 4D developer licenses first, and your Runtime VL license second.

In the generated application, make sure you have a license in the Licenses folder. On MacOS we have to manually enter it but on Windows 4D puts it in. Also if you use plugins, verify that they are correctly copied into the application. Our experience is that this is not always the case. Same for your A4D key.

The web folder and Active4D folder both go in the Database folder of the Final Application. You can probably move the web folder out of the application if you make the necessary entries for SAFE DOC DIRS in Active4D.ini. By default A4D looks for the Active4D.ini file in the database directory but you can move it to the shared 4D directory or the ~/Library/Preferences or Windows directory. We have elected to leave the web folder and Active4D folder in the database directory as we deploy a complete application and not individual patches. We have moved the database and other installation specific files outside of the application so that we can simply replace the application with a new version.

Using port 80 on the MacOS can be a problem. If you're testing on a Mac try a different port, for example 8080.

Hope that helps

Flemming

I am sure one of you is doing this, but I cant seem to get it working.

I am trying to create a merged application (4D Runtime VL) and the application works fine, but hitting the website returns the famous 404 error.

So, where does the web folder and active4d folder belong? I was thinking (hoping) it would sit next to application so that I could easily update pages, etc. (part of the reason for chosing A4D) and not have to put it in the application bundle (where the Active4d Uploads directory was created).
