After You Install
After running the setup program, there are still a couple of
options that you will need to set. You must tell the server where
you will put your Web site files and you must enter your e-mail
information.
The following instructions will take you through the final
setup process.
1. Right click on the server icon in the system tray (lower
right-hand corner of your screen) and click Properties.
Most likely, during the installation you chose to have the
server automatically boot when you turn on the computer; so, the
server icon will always display in the system tray. If not, start
the server as described earlier.
2. Click the Main tab. Under the Mapping/Domain root
directory field, enter the name of the directory where you
will place your Web site files. All Web documents must be in the
directory tree beginning at this directory. Also, keep in mind
that all files in this directory tree will be visible to everyone
who has access to your site. Under the Mapping/Default
document field, enter the name of the document that will be
returned in each subdirectory if the user specifies no document
name. That is, a request for www.domain.com/ is translated into
the document name:
DomainRootDirectory/DefaultDocument
Similarly, www.domain.com/examples/ is
DomainRootDirectory/examples/DefaultDocument
3. Click the Sessions tab. In the Mapping/Script
root directory field, enter the same path as in the Mapping/Domain
root directory field on the Main page.
4. In the E-Mail/Reply e-mail address field, enter the
return e-mail address that you want to be used on all automatic
e-mail messages sent by DecisionScript. Under the Outgoing
SMTP server field, enter the domain name of the server used
for outgoing e-mail. These fields are used only if a script you
build calls the mail built-in
function.
5. Click OK. The server will restart automatically to
reflect the changes.
