SUPPORT Q&A - Virtual directory not created

itie - Wednesday, August 15, 2007 12:28 PM:

Hi All,
We have installed Aras Innovator 8.1.1 and SQL server 2005 and .net framework 2.0 on windows 2003 server 64-bit (OS). We are able to install the Aras properly but we are not getting the virtual directory in IIS. Can you help us? Your quick and positive response will be highly appreciated.

Thanks.
Sanjeev

Hello Sanjeev,

to setup required directories manually please do the following:
1) Find a folder on your HDD where you installed the Innovator. (For example C:Program FilesArasInnovator. There should be DB, Innovator, InstallDll1..3, VaultServer folders there.)
2) In the same folder there should be virtualdirs.xml. Open that file in notepad. There is a list of some virtual folders you need to create. Something like this

    <
VirtualDirs>
       <Directory>Innovator </Directory>
       <Directory> Innovator/vault</Directory>
    </ VirtualDirs>

3) Open IIS Manager and create virtual directory Innovator under Default Web Site. The folder should point to C:Program FilesArasInnovatorInnovator. You need to allow Read and Run Scripts (Such as ASP) permissions for the directory. Please check properties of just created Innovator directory and ensure there is default.aspx specified on Documents tab.

4) After that you need to create 3 virtual directories under just created Innovator directory. All them should get
Read and Run Scripts (Such as ASP) permissions:
   Client - points to
C:Program FilesArasInnovatorInnovatorClient
   Server - points to C:Program FilesArasInnovatorInnovatorServer
   vault
- points to C:Program FilesArasInnovatorVaultServer
