Installing multiple installs of Printer Installer as non-default web sites
To install Printer Installer multiple times on a single IIS web server, do the following for each installation:
First web site:
- Create a DNS host record, that will be used to access the web site, with the IIS server’s IP address. Example:print1.example.com
- On the IIS server, create folder “pi” in the c:\ folder
- Create folder “print1” in the c:\pi folder
- From within the IIS Administrator, add a new Web Site and call it “Print1”, with physical path “c:\pi\print1” and Host name “print.example.com”
- Run PrinterInstallerSetup.exe
- Select Advanced Installation and click Next
- Select "Print1" from the Web-sites drop down, click Next
- Select “MySQL is not installed, install it”,
- Change the database name to print1, and then click Install
- Click Close
Subsequent web sites:
- Create a DNS host record, that will be used to access the web site, with the IIS server’s IP address. Example:printx.example.com
- On the IIS server, create folder “pi” in the c:\ folder
- Create folder “printx” in the c:\pi folder
- From within the IIS Administrator, add a new Web Site and call it “Printx”, with physical path “c:\pi\printx” and Host name “printx.example.com”
- Run PrinterInstallerSetup.exe
- Select Advanced Installation and click Next
- Select "Printx" from the Web-sites drop down, click Next
- Select “MySQL is installed, use the following settings” and open C:\pi\print1\config\settings.php and copy the DBPASSWORD value and paste it into the install dialog's Password field. Do not include the quotes surrounding the password value when you copy the password.
