Configuring Web Gateway on IIS Server

This topic describes the procedure to configure Web gateway on an IIS server.

During Process Platform installation, you can either configure the Web Gateway on IIS or Apache. If you have configured the Web Gateway on the Apache Web server then you can configure it on a IIS Web server later. This topic describes the procedure for configuring Web gateway with IIS after Process Platform was configured with Apache during installation.

1. Create a new folder and name it Process Platform in the <IIS Web root> folder. For example, C:\Inetpub\wwwroot where C is the C drive in the computer.
2. Create another new folder and name it <instance name> in the <IIS Web root>\Cordys folder.
   Note: In Windows XP, if Process Platform is already installed in the Default Web Site, new instances cannot be created from IIS.
3. Create two folders and name them anonymous and wcpdev in the <IIS Web root>\Cordys\<instance name> folder.
4. Navigate to the <Apache Web root>\anonymous folder and copy all the files within the folder.
