Note:

These are the instructions you would follow on your Web server, when you are using the replication model.

 

1.  Under the "Tools" menu, click on "Web Server Setup Console".  If "Web Server Setup Console" does not appear under the "Tools" menu, you need to give yourself permission to view it.

 

2.  If you haven't already, run the Web Server Prereqs.

 

3.  Check the box for "Enable buttons for Web Synchronization." in the lower left corner.

4.  Click on "Web Synchronization Prereqs".

 

5.  Notice the name of the distribution database, the directory that will be used for the distribution database, and the directory that will be used to store replication data.

6.  Click "OK".

 

 

Note:

The "Web Synchronization Prereqs" screen is designed to allow being repeatedly without disrupting the availability of the Web service.  However, unless you're making major changes, you should only need to run the "Web Synchronization Prereqs" once.
