Installing on Windows IIS web server platform

This procedure is written under the assumption that the Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) is already installed, configured, and running on the Microsoft Server.

This procedure installs the Web-to-Host Wizard, which is a Java application, that is used to create and configure BlueZone Web-to-Host sessions.

Insert the BlueZone CD-ROM into the CD drive.

The BlueZone DemoShield auto-runs and the Welcome to BlueZone screen appears.

If you don't have a physical BlueZone CD-ROM but have a BlueZone CD image, double-click bluezone_cd.dbd which is located in the root of the CD image to manually launch the BlueZone DemoShield by

Click BlueZone Web-to-Host.

Several options display.

Click the BlueZone Web-to-Host link.

The BlueZone Web-to-Host Setup dialog opens. You can install or uninstall BlueZone Web-to-Host from this dialog.

The option Install BlueZone Web-to-Host is automatically selected. Click Next.

The BlueZone Software License Agreement opens.

Respond to the question and click Next.

The Installation Directory dialog opens.

It is recommended that you use the default installation location. Click Next.

The Copy Software Activation File dialog opens.

This dialog gives you the opportunity to browse to the location where you have stored your Software Activation File (SAF):

•

If you have a SAF, click Browse and locate your SAF file. Click Next.

•

If you don't have a SAF, or you don't know what a SAF is, you can skip this step and continue with the installation. You can install the SAF at a later time. Refer to Manually installing the software activation file for help in obtaining and manually installing a SAF file. Click Next.

The Program Group, Program Icons, Desktop Shortcuts dialog opens.

It is recommended to use the default values. Click Next.

The Launch Selected Items dialog opens.

Select any items that you want to launch immediately after the installation is completed. Click Finish.

The Web-to-Host Wizard files are now installed. When complete, you receive the following message: BlueZone Web-to-Host installation has completed successfully.

10.

Click OK.

The BlueZone Web-to-Host Wizard is now installed. A desktop shortcut called BlueZone Web-to-Host Wizard is automatically placed on your desktop.

Any items that you previously selected in the Launch Selected Items dialog, launch now.

Note

The following steps apply to Microsoft Windows 2003 Servers only. If you have just installed the Web-to-Host Wizard on a Windows 2000 Server, the installation is now complete. You can launch the Web-to-Host Wizard from the desktop shortcut.

For Windows 2003 only

Due to improved security features of the Microsoft Windows 2003 Server operating system, additional configuration is required.

By default, on Microsoft Windows 2003 Servers, Internet Information Services (IIS) is configured to allow the downloading of certain common files like .htm, .html, .gif, .jpg, and so on. IIS stores them in a list called the MIME Types list. All file extensions that are not registered via the MIME Types list, can not be downloaded from the web server. Since BlueZone Web-to-Host requires the downloading of files that are not on the list, these file types will have to be added before BlueZone Web-to-Host can operate.

On the BlueZone CD-ROM , browse to the BlueZone Web-to-Host folder and locate the mime_map.vbs file.

Double-click mime_map.vbs.

The script runs and you receive the following message: BlueZone MIME Types Successfully Added.

Refer to Configuring MIME types in IIS on Windows 2003 web servers to learn how to view or edit the IIS MIME Types list.

For IIS 7 on Windows 2008 only

If you are installing for IIS 7 on Windows 2008, you must perform the following steps:

Copy web.config to the website hosting the BlueZone Web-to-Host sites that are created with the Web-to-Host Wizard.

The web.config file is at the same level as the BlueZone Web-to-Host site folder, so the web server can find the file when a BlueZone web page is accessed.

If there are conflicts between the MIME types specified in web.config and other MIME types already configured on the server, open web.config with a text editor and delete the line containing the conflicting extension.

For example, if IIS generates an error for the .mdp file extension, open web.config and delete the following line:

<mimeMap fileExtension=".mdp" mimeType="application/octet-stream" />

Note

Ensure you delete the entire line and remove any blanks to close the space.
