Installation and
Configuration Guide
Installing the Messenger Executable
The WebSpeed Messenger must reside on the same machine as your Web server. The Messenger executables are tailored to run with a specific type of Web server. WebSpeed provides a Messenger executable that supports the Web server types described in Table 7–1.
Table 7–1: Windows NT WebSpeed Messengers Web Server Type Messenger Messenger Executable Microsoft IIS ISAPIWSASP1 Netscape NSAPI CGI-compatible CGI
The NSAPI executables reside and run from the install-path
\bin
directory. The CGI Messenger and ISAPI executables reside and run from the\scripts
directory on the Web server.You can use the sample file
cgiip.wsc
to set up a file association for running the CGIIP Messenger under Microsoft’s IIS Server. For details, see thecgiip.wsc
file, which is located in the install-path\bin
directory.NOTE: You must restart an ISAPI or Netscape NSAPI Web server after installing and configuring the Messenger.Compatibility With the Web Server Type and Operating System
The Messenger executable comes with the WebSpeed Transaction Server product. You install the Transaction Server on the machine where you want to run the broker and agents.
If you purchased a WebSpeed Transaction Server for an operating system that is different from the operating system that runs your Web server, go to the Download area on Progress Technical Support’s Web site at
http://www.progress.com/services/support/
and download a compatible Messenger. This is necessary because you must install a Messenger that is compatible with the Web server’s operating system. For example, if you are distributing WebSpeed components across networked machines and your Web server is running on UNIX, be sure to install a WebSpeed Messenger executable that is suitable for running on UNIX. Make sure that you download a Messenger for the appropriate UNIX platform and for the appropriate Web server type.
