Installation 

Note: Automated setup was made since the version 10-3201. For a quick preview installation you only need steps 3 and 9 below. However according to the feedback there is an issue: When trying to connect to UltiDev Cassini  for the first time after its installation, the web server is inaccessible. To fix that you need to restart the UtilDev Cassini service and everything works fine.

1. Internet Information Services

Make sure that the IIS component is installed on the system. If it is not, go to Start, Control Panel, Add or remove programs, Add/Remove Windows components, check Internet Information Services, continue ...

2. MS .Net framework 2.0

Install .NET Framework 2.0 (You can download it from http://www.microsoft.com)

3. MySql server

Setup MySql from 5.0. Vesion 5.0.45 was tested and works well (You can download it from http://dev.mysql.com/ ) Select "Multifunctional database" because the application uses InnoDB tables. Remember the password of the "root" account. You will need it later.

4. MySql Connector

Install MySql Connector NET from version 5.0. Version 5.0.8.1 was tested (You can download it from http://dev.mysql.com/)

5. Application directory

Create a directory where application executable files will be stored (for example: C:\Program Files\EvpoDC). Extract the content of the installation archive into the directory

6. Install IIS virtual directory for the application

1) Start, Control Panel, Administrative tools, Internet Information Services
2) Expand the tree view nodes and right click on the "Default web site" node
3) Select "New>", "Virtual directory...", Click "Next".
4) Enter alias. "EvpoDC" is recommended. Click "Next"
5) Choose the "EDCWeb" directory in the application directory created at step 5
6) Click "Next", Click "Next", Click "Finish"


7. Set MySql Connector version in web.config file (must be only done, if the version installed at step 4 is newer than 5.0.8.1)

Open web.config file in EDCWeb directory with Notepad and find "<bindingRedirect oldVersion="5.0.7.0" newVersion="5.0.8.1"/>". Replace the newVersion attribute value with the number of the version installed at step 4.

8. Start application*

Enter in your browser http://localhost/EvpoDC

Configuration wizard will appear. Follow the instructions of the wizard. During the configuration, when the wizard says, you will need to add MODIFY access for the ASP.NET process account in two subdirectories inside the application directory (created at step 5). They are EDCFILES and EDCWEB\SETTINGS. These steps should be done to add required permissions in the folders to ASP.NET process account:

1)    In the explorer window right click on the folder, select Properties,
2)    change to the Security tab (if there is no Security tab, do the following: in the explorer window, Tools, Folder Options..., View, Advanced Settings, Clear the "Use simple file sharing (recommended)" checkbox)
3)    Click "Add..." button
4)    Enter the ASP.NET process account name appropriate for your system (the wizard will tell you the account name), click "OK"
5)    Click MODIFY check box.
6)    Click OK to close the window
7)    Proceed with the wizard

9. Application login

After the wizard saving the settings the application will be restarted and you will be asked to enter credentials. You can enter the following credentials: login "DocCircAdmin" password "1". It is recommended to change the password later.

* The user interface language is set to English by default. You can select another language. In EDCWeb directory open web.config text file. Find the "<globalization ..." tag and change "culture" and "uiCulture" attribute values to "en-US" for English and "ru-RU" for Russian.

Note: After creating a new item in the system you need to press "Refresh" button to see it on the relevant list page.
