View Full Version : Releases and Web Install/Update

The Docs say we should put each set of web install/update files in seperate folders. That means that for different releases (single user, network 5 user, network 10 user, demo, etc) there must be different web install/update folders and logins and passwords.

However, when I click "Enable Web Installation" in the Visualizer, no entry is made in the script that I can see. Thus, it is not obvious how to use the "Release" feature to select the correct login info for the selected release.

Am I missing something?

Debugging software is ALWAYS harder than writing it. Therefore, if your code is as clever as you are capable of making it, you are, by definition, inadequate to debug it.

Hello,

I checked the documentation, but can't find the above. Is it in the latest documentation?

We have all web installation and web update files for all ever released products in the same web folder.

I'll take an another look. I may have picked up that tip from the online postings. If different web installs/updates can be placed in the same web folder, that neatly solves the problem.

Freidrich,

I've checked the docs and cannot find the stuff I thought was in there. I have found several forum postings that I may have erroneously thought meant that I had to put them in unique folders with different logiins. The following is an example one:

"My web updates are independant of the full installations so similar files
names do not matter. Full installs and updates are stored in different
folders."

I save text files of things I need to reference later. I may have excerpted a line similar to "Full installs and updates are stored in different
folders" and then come to the conclusion that they HAD to be in different folders.

Sorry for the confusion and I sincerely hope this did not cause you any lost time from more important endeavers such as adding new features to the greatest installer program ever written!
