Development - Deployment
|
|
| n_steenkiste@hotmail.com 2005-07-26, 7:56 am |
| Hello,
We are planning to use CMS to develop a new website. We have experience
in developing websites in asp.net with VS 2003.
We build the sites on local machines and the database is a local SQL
Server.
Question. If we install CMS on a local workstation and use a local SQL
server, is it possible with CMS to deploy this site and database to an
external server? And how is this done?
Kind regards,
Nicolas

| Hi Nicolas,
yes that can be done.
But you also need to have CMS on the external server and this server also
needs to have access to an SQL server.
To deploy it XCOPY the content of the template project virtual directory
content to an identical named virtual directory on the production machine.
Ensure that the project virtual directory is configured as a web
application.
Then create the "CMS" virtual directory inside the template project web
application and point it to the IIS_CMS virtual directory. Ensure that this
virtual directory is NOT(!) a web application.
Now use site deployment using SiteManager or using Site Deployment API to
deploy the MCMS repository content to the production machine.
Cheers,
Stefan
