Creating new projects

[Phillip Duba-4]

Since I am dealing with the FC5 RLC, I thought I would post this here,
but it could probably go to farcry-dev as well. Anyways, what is the
"best" way to create new projects once the FarCry core and associated
plugins have been deployed for one project under the "Advanced
Configuration" installation process (I'm using the webserver one, not
the CF mapping)? I'm thinking something along the lines of the
following and would like feedback/suggestion on the process:

1. Create a new folder in {Install Path}/farcry/projects for the new
site
2. Create the (virtual) site for the project in the web server
3. Create two virtual mappings:

Since it sent before I was done, here's the rest of the process I laid
out:

    a. /webtop: {Install Path}/farcry/core/webtop
    b. /farcry: {Install Path}/farcry
4. Create a blank db and datasource for CF
5. Point the broswer to http://{site url}/webtop and execute insall
script

Again, just making sure this is the right approach and I'm not missing
anything or messing up other project installs on the same box/core
install. Thanks,

Phil

Thats exactly what I do although if your using IIS, you cant create  
virtuals on folders that don't exist. So for IIS, the process is.


1. Create a new folder in {Install Path}/farcry/projects for the new  
site
2. Create the Web Server  site for the project {site url} pointing to  
the folder you just created.
3. Create two virtual mappings:
    a. /webtop: {Install Path}/farcry/core/webtop
    b. /farcry: {Install Path}/farcry
4. Point the broswer to http://{site url}/webtop and execute install
5. After install complete, Change the Web Server site for the project  
pointing to {Install Path}/farcry/projects/newProjectName/www in the  
web server

I think thats about right (although I generally don't use IIS.

Keep in mind, you can't have multiple sites in the XP/Vista version of  
IIS so this process is really only if your running on a Server version  
of Windows.

Thanks Matt. I forgot about #5 below and I also anticipate using Apache as the web server in my instance. Thanks again,

Phil
