Here are some tips for installation on Win2003.
- After running SCSetup.exe, make sure there is a file named ZaphodsMap.cfg in your c:\windows folder. If not, create a file with that name and these contents:
If this file was not present, stop/start IIS to reload StreamCatcher.
- Check the VERY TOP WEB SITES node in IIS Manager, look on the ISAPI Filters tab. You should see StreamCatcher listed there. It should be, and detailed instructions are in the StreamCatcher manual.
- Also in IIS Manager, under Web Service Extensions, make sure that c:\Apps\StreamCatcher\Application\StreamCatcher.dll is ALLOWED.
- After following the normal installation procedure plus the steps above, you should be able to bring up your master console URL and either (a) see a message that the console is disabled (which is normal for Win2003), or (b) see the actual console (if you are running IIS 6 in IIS 5 compatibility mode). IF YOU DO NOT SEE (a) or (b),
you probably have permissions problem, so check:
- Make sure the IIS_WPG (IIS worker process group) has READ rights on c:\AppsData\ZaphodsMap folder
- Make sure the IIS_WPG has READ, WRITE and MODIFY rights on c:\Apps\StreamCatcher folder and subfolders
- Make sure the IIS_WPG has READ, WRITE and MODIFY rights on c:\AppsData\StreamCatcher folder and subfolders
- After changing permissions, Stop/Start IIS to reload StreamCatcher.
- Look in c:\Apps\StreamCatcher\ErrorLogs for additional clues. As long as StreamCatcher.dll is able to write to this folder, it will report any configuration errors to you.
- If you are working with a test server, we recommend that you temporarily run it in IIS 5 compatibility mode ("IIS 5.0 isolation mode") so that you can use StreamCatcher's consoles to make changes, see the trace log, reload settings without stopping IIS, etc. etc. When you are done configuring StreamCatcher, reset the mode. You must stop/restart the IIS service from outside IIS Manager whenever you change modes; otherwise StreamCatcher will not reload its rules.
You can find screenshots and instructions on MSDN -- search for "Selecting Execution Mode".
