Select IIS Computers, Web Sites and Paths Dialog Box

Use the Select IIS Computers, Web Sites and Paths dialog box to modify the default assignments made for the Web site name and virtual directory path for each Commerce Server Web application service that you want to unpack.

Note

Site Packager locates your applications in separate subfolders inside the IIS Web site that you specify, and inside the physical folders that the IIS Web site points to. It will name those subfolders with the Virtual Directory path name that you specify for each application. By default, these virtual directory names are the same as the application names. If you have an existing commerce site that uses the default names, you will want to change the Virtual Directory path names in this dialog box for the commerce applications to be unpacked. Also, you may want to change the Commerce Application Name of an application in case you already have an application with that name in the current site.

Use this

To do this

Commerce Application

From the list of applications, select the application on which you want to perform an action, such as changing the IIS Web site.

Commerce Application Name

Modify the name of the application or leave the default assignment unchanged.

The Commerce Application Name should be unique across all applications in the commerce Web site.

IIS Web site

Select an existing IIS Web site to which you want to unpack the application files, the location of your site on the server.

Virtual Directory path

Specify the name of the IIS path of your site. This name will appear in the URL path of your site. Change the path name for each new site and new application that you unpack to avoid changing the content of applications that have previously been unpacked.

Dd451284.alert_caution(en-US,CS.90).gifImportant Note:
The virtual directories for each application must point to different locations and not conflict with any other virtual directories, including ones that are not in the site, so that the files in the virtual directories do not overwrite each other.

To unpack an application to the root of the Web site, use the ‘/’ character or leave this field blank.
