Title: Re: Witango-Talk:  DefaultErrorFile Help

The structure of the ini files has not changed between T2K and W5 and the same rules apply to it.  You can find the documentation on the application.ini file on page 528 of the T2K User Guide.

You need to define a PATH attribute for applications to work as this is what defines an application.

Your file should look something like this.  I have added a few other settings to illustrate how it works.

[Applications]
Default=This application controls everything in the web root which is not part of another application.
MyApp=This is the application I have created in IIS

[Default]
PATH=/
CUSTOMSCOPESWITCH=off
EXTERNALSWITCH=on
FILEDELETESWITCH=off
FILEREADSWITCH=on
FILEWRITESWITCH=off
_javascript_SWITCH=on
JAVASWITCH=off
MAILSWITCH=on
PASSTHROUGHSWITCH=on
DEFAULTERRORFILE=c:\\Program Files\\Witango\\Server\\MiscFiles\\error.tml

[MyApp]
PATH=/MyApp/
CUSTOMSCOPESWITCH=on
EXTERNALSWITCH=on
FILEDELETESWITCH=on
FILEREADSWITCH=on
FILEWRITESWITCH=on
_javascript_SWITCH=on
JAVASWITCH=on
MAILSWITCH=on
PASSTHROUGHSWITCH=on
DEFAULTERRORFILE=c:\\Program Files\\Witango\\Server\\MiscFiles\\myapperror.tml


We will be releasing a Server Manager application that can be used to manage a wider range of functions in the coming weeks.
