| Q: |
What does IWS mean? |
| A: |
IWS is the abbreviation of IntraWeb
Studio |
|
| Q: |
What kind of server do I need? |
| A: |
For the repository you will need a .NET enabled IIS server
(Windows). For the actual Web sites any Web
server will work, IWS produces plain html files in legacy mode.
If the Web server is .NET enabled, then you can deploy
using the advanced .NET mode of IWS (producing .iwp or aspx files)
|

| Q: |
Where do I get a Server, if I don't have one? |
| A: |
As Webserver that serves your Website you can use
any known Web hoster that supports FTP uploads, and
html files. (Windows, Linux, Unix or what ever). If you want to take
advantage of the special dynamic features (like language recognition),
then you need to choose a .NET enabled Windows server. (For Mono see
below).
As Repository server you need a .NET enabled
Windows server, which allows you to install a custom Web service. Basic
hosting packages usually do not have that option. Ask your Web hoster, or
select on of our approved IWS hosting services: IWS Hosting |
|
| Q: |
Do I need .NET on my server? |
| A: |
Only the repository server needs .NET to be
installed. The Web server does not not need .NET. |
|
| Q: |
Is Linux / Mono supported? |
| A: |
As Webserver you can use any Web server, Linux and Apache are supported
that is.
For the Repository server and the IWS Client, we support Windows only
currently. There are some efforts though to support Mono here as
well, but we have not time frame for that yet. |
|
| Q: |
What is the difference between Personal/Desktop Editons and
Professional/Enterprise Editions? |
| A: |
Personal/Desktop are stand alone single user versions. The do
not require an repository server to be
installed. Professional/Enterprise are multi-user client-server
versions. They need an IWS Repository Server to be installed.
