Setting Up the WebClient Install and Bootstrap Mechanism
Follow these steps to set up the WebClient install and bootstrap mechanism:
- Insert the Progress CDROM into the CDROM drive.
- Recursively copy the
webinstall\webclient\web_image
directory to theweb_image
subdirectory of your Web server’s document root directory.- Edit the
bootstrap.htm
file (which was copied in Step 2) so it references your WebClient install image and your application configuration file as follows:In the
bootstrap.htm
file, replace thedocument.location.href
andwindow.location
URLs to match the location of your configuration andwebclient.htm
files, respectively.For example:
document.location.href = "http://pctest/web_image/sportspro.prowcapc";
window.location = "http://pctest/web_image/webclient.htm";
- Edit the
webclient.htm
file (which was copied in Step 2) as follows:
- Uncomment the lines that invoke the WebClient initializer. (Keep commented the lines that invoke the One-Click application install directly.)
- Change <URL to your .prowcapc file> to
http://%
MYWEBSERVER%/web_image/sportspro.prowcapc
.For example:
ether.SetProperty(“ProwcappURL”, “http://pctest/web_image/sportpro.prowcapc”);
