QuickerSite

Unzip the archive to a location of your choice - eg: "c:\inetpub\wwwroot\quickersite"

Create a website or virtual directory in IIS and specify the above location as the home directory of the site. The default document for any QuickerSite is default.asp

Make sure you configure web_config.asp following the guidelines below:

1. Virtual Directory?
   Use ONLY if you install QuickerSite in a VIRTUAL DIRECTORY in IIS
   const C_VIRT_DIR="" 'virtual directory -> DO NOT FORGET a preceding slash: eg: '/QuickerSite'
   const C_DIRECTORY_QUICKERSITE="" 'COPY the value of C_VIRT_DIR here ! 
    
2. Userfiles
   Folder that stores USERFILES (uploaded files & images)  The IUSR needs "full control" permissions on this folder! Check out how to do this. Make sure 'Directory Browsing' is disabled for this folder (it is by default). If it isn't, all your userfiles will be exposed to any visitor browsing to it!
   Application("QS_CMS_userfiles")="/userfiles/" 'do not forget both slashes, at the start & end! 
    
3. Mailing Component
   Supported components: persits.mailsender; cdo.message; cdonts.newmail; jmail.message
   const C_MAILCOMPONENT="cdo.message"
   const C_SMTPSERVER="localhost" ' your own smtp server
   const C_SMTPPORT=25 'port smtp server 
    
4. PATH to Access databases
   IUSR needs full control-permissions on the DB-folder. Check out how to do this. Make sure there are no read-permissions for public visitors on these files. If there are, anyone can download your Access-database... If you do not have that option, you should at least rename the QuickerSite.mdb-file to something pretty uncommon and use that name here!
   dim C_DATABASE, C_DATABASE_LABELS
   C_DATABASE = server.MapPath (C_VIRT_DIR & "/db/QuickerSite.mdb") 'YOU MUST RENAME THIS FILE!
   C_DATABASE_LABELS = server.MapPath (C_VIRT_DIR & "/db/QuickerLabels.mdb") 
    
5. MS SQLSERVER CONNECTION SETTINGS - leave all parameters BLANK in case you use ACCESS!
   If you use SQLServer, you still HAVE to (re)move/name "/db/QuickerSite.mdb" since it could store non-encrypted passwords!!!
   SQL2005_SERVER = "" 'server
   SQL2005_DB = "" 'database
   SQL2005_UID = "" 'user
   SQL2005_PWD = "" 'password 
    
6. iCustomerID
   This value corresponds to the value for iId in the table tblCustomer of your QuickerSite DB. You can have multiple sites in 1 database and running on 1 codebase. You then have to move this variable to the global.asa of every QuickerSite you host.
   Application("QS_CMS_iCustomerID")=73 'Sample Site! If you are ready to go, you'd better
   'switch this to 74, a clean QS in the same database!  
    
7. Constants for developing purposes only!
   const C_ADMINEMAIL="" 'the email address to forward VBScript runtime errors to
   const C_ADMINPASSWORD="admin" 'not used in this version of QS
   const C_DEV=false 'True takes your QuickerSite offline (for upgrading purposes)

Finally, you can test the setup of your QuickerSite by browsing to it.

To logon to the backsite, simply add "/backsite" to your domain and login with the password (default: admin).
