This screen
allows you to set the following options:
- Server Root Directory - This is the
directory where the web server (not the web documents) is installed. If you
are changing the installation directory for your web server, you must change
this directory name. When changing your Server Root Directory, keep in mind
the following:
- If your TeamWSD installation is installed
within a user account (instead on a global "all-server basis") in an
ISP-based environment, the Server Root directory may be same as the
Document Root directory. It may be located in, or as a subdirectory of, the
"public_html" directory that is assigned to your account.
- Most Server Root directories will have
a cgi-bin sub-directory, where most CGI scripts or programs are installed.
Note: Some web servers will
only allow CGI scripts or programs to be run from the cgi-bin directory.
If your web server is configured in such a way, your TeamWSD software must
be installed in or under the cgi-bin directory.
- Document Root Directory - This is the
root directory where all of the server's web pages are stored. If you are
changing the location of your web server (see above), note the following
items:
- If your TeamWSD installation is on an
ISP-based shared web server, the Document Root directory may be
called "public_html" (also read the note under Server Root Directory).
- Most web servers will only allow public
access to web pages in and under the Document Root directory.
Note: For this reason the
TeamWSD Support directory, which contains the header and button
image files and help pages used in most TeamWSD screens, must be a
sub-directory of the Document Root directory
- Support Directory - This directory is
the top-level directory where all of the support files used by TeamWSD are
stored. This directory contains the header and button image files, and help
pages used in most TeamWSD screens. It must be a subdirectory of the Document
Root directory.
- This directory should not
contain any files other than the TeamWSD support files.
- Password File - This file contains the
user names and passwords for the users validated to use TeamWSD. This file
should be in or under the web server's "cgi-bin" directory to prevent direct
access to the file by a web browser.
- Activity Log File - This file contains
log entries for all activity that occurs in TeamWSD. This file should be in or
under the web server's "cgi-bin" directory to prevent direct access to the
file by a web browser.
- MIME Types File - This file contains the
list of valid MIME types and the associated file extensions for the web
server. It should point to the MIME Types file that is configured for your web
server. If a MIME types files does not exist in the directory you specified,
TeamWSD will install one for you.
- URL Prefix: - Some installations,
specifically many Internet Service Provider (ISP) installations, place the
Document Root directory under a User Home Directory as a method of separating
access to each user's web content from that of other users. To access files in
that home directory, a URL Prefix (such as "/~username" or "/username") is
sometimes required at the beginning of every URL. Because TeamWSD generates
URLs to access its support files, this field should be set to any URL Prefix
(without a trailing "/") needed to access documents under the User Home
Directory. If no URL Prefix is needed, this field should be left blank.
- Shared Support URL: - If
multiple repositories are in different virtual domains, they can't use the
same automatic support URL. The Shared Support URL is the URL to the support
images/help files, possibly on a different server.
- File Permissions for new files (UNIX only) - if you are not using CGIWrap or an
equivalent utility, and you want to be able to update files in the Working
Directory outside of WSD, click the appropriate Read and Write
checkboxes to assign permissions as follows:
-
- Owner - assign Read and/or Write file
permissions to the repository owner's UID displayed above.
- Group - assign Read and/or Write file
permissions to the repository owner's GID displayed above.
- Other - assign Read and/or Write file
permissions to all other users who are not the UID or GID owner.
The following functions are
available on this screen:
- [SYSTEM DEFAULTS ] - Takes
you to the System Defaults screen that contains the default values that are
used in the Create Repository, Configure Virtual Host, and Configure New
Repository screens.
- [MIME
TYPES] - Takes you to the Maintain Mime Types
screen where you can Add, Edit and Delete Mime Types.
- [MAINTAIN
SERVERS] - Takes you to the Maintain Servers
screen where you can Add, Edit, Delete and Synchronize servers.
- [CHECK
PERMISSIONS] - Displays the
TeamWSD Permissions Check report.
- [UPDATE
CONFIG] - Make the appropriate changes to the fields displayed
on this screen, and click to save the changes and return to the TeamWSD
Application Desktop screen.
- [RETURN] - Click to return to the TeamWSD
Application Desktop screen without making any changes.
