This will create a directory called Phewr. All references to source files are relative to this Phewr directory. Note that the Admin and Public websites do NOT have to reside on the same web server. PHEWR Database In order to create the Phewr database you should have an existing SQL Server 2005 setup and be able to login with administrative rights. Phewr has currently not been tested with SQL Server 2008. 1. Using SQL Server Management Studio, login to SQL Server as the sa user or a user that has rights to create a new database. ○ Right-click on the database folder in the left most window and select “New Database”. 2. Create a new database called Phewr. Make the datafile 10MB and the log file 10MB. ○ Select and click on the ‘Initial size” column of the corresponding file and set the size to 10 mb for each file. ○ When complete, press the ‘OK’ button to create the database 3. Create a new login called phewr by; ○ Right clicking on the “Security” folder located in the left margin ○ Select ‘New Login’ ○ Create a login ID called ‘phewr’ ○ Select the SQL Server Authentication radio button, enter your password of choice. {Note: you will need to use this password when installing the Admin and Public web sites} 2 ○ Uncheck the following options: ● Enforce Password policy ● Enforce Password expiration ● User must change password at next login. ● Modify the default database to Phewr. ○ Change the default Database to ‘Phewr’ 4. Create a new user in the Phewr database also called phewr. Make this user a member of the db_owner role as follows {see screen shot below}; ○ Under ‘Security/logins’ right click on the ‘phewr’ user you created then select ‘Properties’. ○ Select ‘User Mappings’ ○ A list of users and associated roles will be listed. Check the box next to the ‘phewr’ user. ○ Find listed and select the ‘DB-Owner’ check-box ○ Select OK to save your changes 3 5. Disconnect the administrative login and reconnect as the phewr user you just created. 6. In the “SQL Server Management Studio” application select File/Open and navigate to the folder where you expanded the phewr.zip file (refer to page 1 “Installation Guide ‘phewr.zip expansion’) 7. Find and Open the ./Phewr/Database/Phewr.sql script in the Enterprise Manager and execute on the Phewr database. 8. Disconnect the phewr user and exit Enterprise Manager. Admin 1. Review the Prerequisite Guide for PHEWR Admin guide to make sure the IIS server is configured properly for silverlight applications. 2. Create a folder at the root of your website for housing the Phewr Admin module. Example:C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\PhewrAdmin 3. Copy the contents in the ‘PhewrAdmin’ folder to the website folder you just created. 4. Edit the web.config file and modify the elements in the <connectionStrings> tag to reflect your database server and passwords. Editing can be performed by right-clicking on the web.config file in Windows File Explorer and selecting ‘Open with’ Notepad. 5. Edit the file by replacing the words ‘YOUR_SERVER’ and ‘YOUR_PASSWORD’ with values to 4 reflect the name of your database server and the phewr password respectively. Note: there are two occurrences of YOUR_SERVER and YOUR_PASSWORD in the file, you must change both. 6. To save your changes in Notepad select ‘Save as’ and change the save-as -type- to ‘all’. Save the file with the same file name and extension. ie. ‘web.config’. 7. Run IIS Manager; IIS Manager can be found as follows; ○ Start Button / Programs / Administrative Tools / IIS Manager 8. Locate the ‘PhewrAdmin’ folder listed in the website area of IIS Manager. Right-click on the ‘PhewrAdmin’ website folder and select properties. 9. In IIS Manager create a website application using the website folder created in step 2 as follows; ○ In the Directory tab, ensure the Application Pool is using ‘.NET 4.0 Pool’ (See ‘Prerequisite Guide for PHEWR Admin’ for help if you do not see this option. ○ In the Documents tab, Add a default content page called “Phewr.aspx” and move it to the top of the list. ○ 5 ○ In the ASP.NET tab, make sure the ‘ASP.NET version’ property is set to the the installed Framework 4 version. ○ You are now ready to verify access to the Phewr Admin via the following url: http://{Your Server Name}/PhewrAdmin Note: If the SilverLight browser add-in has not yet been installed you will be prompted to install it. Click the following link for additional SilverLight installation instructions; 6 http://www.microsoft.com/getsilverlight/Get-Started/Install/Default.aspx Configuration In order for the Admin module to communicate with the Public module, the Public website URL MUST be setup in the System Options of the admin module. 1. Log into the Admin application as the admin user (by default, the admin password is password) Example: http://{Your Server Name}/PhewrAdmin Note: When logging into the Admin application for the first time, the application will require you to reset the admin password to something other than password. If, in the future, one forgets the admin password (and no other users exist in the system to reset the password), please run the script called CreateAdminUser.sql in the Database folder. 2. Click on the Systems menu option and select the System Options. 3. In the System Options dialog form, replace the value in the Public Registration Website URL field with the URL address of your Public application Example: http://{Your Server Name}/PhewrPublic 4. In the System Options dialog form, update the Administrator Email field by entering an email address that will receive system and error emails and be the “from” address on outgoing emails. 5. Please refer to the User Guide (section Configuration) to customize the Public website for your use. 7 Public Using ColdFusion 1. Create a folder at the root of your website for housing the Phewr Public Registration module. Example: C:\inetpub\wwwroot\PhewrPublic 2. Copy the contents in the Phewr\Public folder to the website folder you just created. 3. Login to the ColdFusion Administrator page (Start | Adobe | ColdFusion | Administrator). 4. Click on the Data Sources link on the left and add the “phewr” data source using the Microsoft SQL Server driver. 5. Add the ‘phewr’ Datasource Name, ‘phewr’ database name, as well as the user ID and password setup as part of the database creation steps as found in the Admin section of this guide. 8 6. Click on the Java and JVM link on the left and add the Java class path for the BBQ (Bar code generator) folder inside the PhewrPublic website. See ColdFusion Class Path section in: 7. You must restart the ColdFusion Application Service after completing this step. Use the Services Control Panel to do so. 8. If not already set, configure the SMTP server to handle ColdFusion email by clicking on the Mail link on the left and entering your SMTP server value. 9. Configure IIS to use index.cfm as the default document for the PhewrPublic website. The CF install may have done this. You can move this one to the top. 10. You are now ready to test phewr public by accessing the url: http://{Your Server Name}/PhewrPublic Using Railo Download the latest version of the Railo open-source CFML engine from http://www.getrailo.org/. Instructions below are for the Railo Server with Tomcat 7 version. 1. Run the installation file. 2. Answer prompts according to your desired configuration (password, location, port, etc.) 3.
