If you use an external hosting service (not the Mirage Hosting Service), which does not allow to use a MSI file, the installation can be done manually.

 

The MSI file does the entire necessary configuration for the IIS-Server, which has to be done manually when using the ZIP file.

 

Perform the following steps to use a hosting service:

 

•Make sure, that you provider has installed all the components listed in System Requirements

•Unzip the lpweb.zip file to a local folder

•Copy the complete folder structure of your local Web directory to your provider

•Set up the database as described

•Customize the configuration files

•Your provider has to add the necessary rights for the ASP service

•Your provider has to perform a system check

•You have to test the Administration Interface
