Appendix C. Installing the Tropical Green Website
Tropical Green is the fictitious gardening society upon which the book’s sample website is based. In the earlier book, Building Websites with Microsoft Content Management Server (Packt Publishing, January 2005, ISBN 1-904811-16-7), we built the Tropical Green website from scratch. In this appendix, we provide a quick start guide for setting up the Tropical Green website. In a nutshell, here’s what we will do:
Download the sample code from the Packt website.
Create the TropicalGreen Web Application.
Import the objects in the Site Deployment Object file.
Create an account for the Guest user.
Ensure that the server settings in Server Configuration Application are correct.
Set
www.tropicalgreen.netto execute locally.Configure the browser to bypass the proxy server.
You should already have Microsoft Content Management Server 2002 installed with the latest service packs applied. We will also assume that you are working with Internet Information Services 5.x. If you are running Windows Server 2003 and therefore have IIS 6.0 installed, the steps are similar although some aspects will be different. Have a look at Appendix A if you’d like to see an example of a similar process using IIS 6.
