In IIS, you set the home directory as a share on another computer.
You set the path using UNC notation, like \\server1\webfiles\mysite
or whatever. This path must point to same files for the IIS server,
and all witango services. I have a setup with 7 servers for instance.
2 IIS servers with witango plugins, and 6 witango servers and one
file server they can all see with same UNC path.
When IIS gets a request, it passes it on to witango service with
path, and the witango service pulls the file and processes.

Robert,
Where in Windows, IIS or Witango do you indicate or use this? My
setup is
working correctly without this.
Unless:
Maybe because I have shares setup on each server with
Administrative Rights
as follows:
\\ics9\wwwroot
\\ics14\wwwroot
Thanks,
Steve

Both servers need to have access to the files, and the web directory,
and the path to the files must be the same for both servers. LIke:
\\Server1\webfiles\mysite\

Hi,
I ran a test with the following setup.
Server A will run one Witango service and the databases will reside
here.
Server B will run IIS, Witango Client and one Witango service
Server B contains all the Witango and web files in the wwwroot
folder. IIS
is setup to run this website.
Server A does not contain any Witango and web files for this
application.
IIS is not setup to run this web site.
DNS points to the IIS website running on Server B.
The apps runs fine repeatedly (closing the browser and opening a
new one). I
can tell which Witango Service is serving the browser because one
of my
Witango services is running on a 30 day trial license and the green
trailer
displays when the browser is using this service. Also the Witango
log files
on both servers show evidence of the app running on them.
I am concluding that the Witango apps and html files only have to
be placed
on the server hosting the IIS service and Witango Client. In this
test,
server B. It appears that server A reads the Witango files from
server B and
caches them for further use.
So it also appears that you only have to maintain one set of files
on the
IIS and Witango Client server. You don't need them on subsequent
Witango
servers included in the load balancing farm.
Comments would be appreciated. Maybe everyone knows this and I just
didn't
get it.
Thanks
