Follow these steps to create your site in IIS and configure common mappings.

Create your site in IIS at the following location:

Path:
yourdrive:\HostingSpaces\ClientSites\ClientName-gitrepo-\wwwroot

To simplify setup, we recommend using the following mappings.

1. Run the following command in the Command Line (Admin Mode):
   (Only required once per machine)

mklink /d D:\HostingSpaces\ewcommon_v5-1 D:\HostingSpaces\ProteanCMS\wwwroot\ewcommon  

2. Map the ewcommon Directory in IIS:
   • Open IIS Manager for your site.
   • Click on View Applications.
   • Select Add Application.
   • Set the Alias to: ewcommon.
   • Set the Physical Path to: yourdrive:\HostingSpaces\ewcommon.
   • Click OK.

Edit the hosts file (C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts) using Notepad or another text editor, and add the following line to create a local name:

127.0.0.1 clientsite.co.uk  

1. In SQL Server 2008, create a database username and password using SQL authentication.

2. Run the ProteanCMS Setup:

   • Open your browser and go to:
     http://clientsite.co.uk/ewcommon/setup.
   • Fill in any fields that aren't auto-populated and click Continue to set up the database and copy files. This may take a few moments.

3. Set Database Permissions:

   • Open the properties for the SQL login you just created.
   • Select User Mapping.
   • Tick the box next to the newly created database.
   • Tick the box next to the db_owner role.

1. On the next page of the eonicweb 5 setup, click Continue to populate the database.

2. Copy the ewThemes Directory:
   Copy (do not map) the ewThemes directory to the wwwroot directory. You may need to fix references (this might be done automatically during setup).

3. Log into eonicweb:

   • Username: admin
   • Password: buster

   If the login is successful, the installation has completed.

• Back to ProteanCMS Version 5
