[U2] U2 Web DE Re-install
My PC dies a few weeks ago and I am trying to re-install the U2 Web DE package on my PC so that I can connect to UniData Redback on my UNIX box. Note that my web server running IIS is on yet a 3rd box. My documentation is slim to none and I am hoping to get some guidance. Everything is working fine on my UNIX box (RedBack and UniData) and all is good on my web server. I just need to get U2WebDE running from my PC. As I recall, when it asks if I want the Complete or Custom setup, I choose Custom. I am fine with the destination of C:\IBM\U2WEBDE When it asks for which features, it defaults to 1) U2 Web Designer, 2) IIS Gateway 3) International Licenses. If I click Next, I get a window showing an empty box stating: 0 IIS web sites are defined. Select one to use in this installation. Obviously, I am missing something here. If I backup to the features and also turn on the RedBack Object Server for UniData, and click next, it wants to start a Database service on my PC, but UniData is on a UNIX box. Where am I going wrong? JRI ___ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users

Hi You need to make sure that you have install the IIS 6 compatibility options (under Add/Remove Windows Components), or the setup won't find your web sites.

Also, to set up the database side portion, you need to run WebDE developer, connect to the account and use the option to enable the account from there. Remember that unlike RedBack, there are no responders on the server. It is all done from the web server running pooled UniObjects connections. So you need to set up the new ini file (rgw5.ini) in place of the old rgw.ini on the web server, with the min/max pools and the connection credentials (encrypted password). Bad luck if that has an expiry policy. Setting up the ini file also requires WebDE developer, though once created you can copy the rgw5.ini around.

And after all of *that*, make sure you have installed .NET framework 4 on the web server, and if you are using old ASP style pages, you need to register the COM wrappers. Only supports the connection by name (the old open2 syntax) not the older connection via ADODB.
