Installing Web Manager

Installation - Windows 2000 Server

Procedure

  1. Insert the BlueZone CD-ROM into the CD drive of the Microsoft web server you wish to install Web Manager.  An AutoRun program will launch and you will be presented with a Welcome to BlueZone “Splash” screen.

  2. Click the BlueZone Web-to-Host link.

  3. Click the BlueZone ASP Web Manager link.  This will start the installation process.

  4. The BlueZone ASP Web Manager Setup dialog will be displayed.  The Install BlueZone ASP Web Manager radio button will automatically be selected.  Click the Next button.

  5. The BlueZone License Manager License dialog will be displayed.  To continue, select the "Yes" radio button and click the Next button.

  6. The Installation Directory dialog will be displayed.  We recommend using the default value for the Installation Drive and Directory.  You can choose any name you wish for the Virtual Directory.  Click the Next button.

  7. The Copy Software Activation File dialog will be displayed.  If you have a Software Activation File, browse to it now.  If you do not have a Software Activation File at this time, you can manually install it later.  Click the Next button.

  8. The Launch Selected Items dialog will be displayed.  Select any items that you want to automatically launch immediately after the installation is completed.  Click the Finish button.

  9. The Web Manager files will now be copied to your web server.  After the Web Manager installation program is complete, you will receive the following message: “The BlueZone ASP Web Manager installation completed successfully”.

  10. Click the OK button to continue.

  11. Any items that you selected in the Launch Selected Items dialog above, will be launched now.

Deny Web Browser Access to the Database

IMPORTANT! This step is very important.  If you do not perform this step, any end user will be able to download the entire Web Manager database if they happen to know the correct “path”.

  1. Using the Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager, go to the SWM folder and expand it by clicking on the plus sign.

  2. Find the folder called "access" and select it. This is where Web Manager stores its database.

  3. Right click and select Properties. The Properties dialog for this folder will display.

  4. De-select the Read checkbox and set the Permissions drop  down box None.

  5. Click OK to close the dialog.

The SWM application will have permission to access the data via ODBC, but End Users will not be able to download the database file to their workstations.

Congratulations!  The basic installation portion of the BlueZone ASP Web Manager is complete.
