Publish a web site with one application server

You publish the (contents of) the site periodically using the Profit Update Service. We advise you to launch this service automatically (not manually, as the service will not start after a restart of the server).

To configure the Profit Update Service:

1. Go to: ...\Profit\AFAS Windows\Kernel\Profit Update Service\Profit Update Service Controller.exe
2. Right-click on Profit Update Service Controller.
3. Click on: Run as administrator.
4. Click on: Edit Settings.
5. Deselect the Communicate via Profit Application Services  check box.
6. Click on: Refresh.
7. Select the Update Service added to Profit.

   If the update service is not present, click on Refresh.

8. Click on: OK.
9. Click on: Start.
10. During the installation the website is added according to the settings of the share of the web server. The different virtual paths are added as a folder. When the installation is complete, a message is displayed.

    If the folder is not filled, an incorrect web site name has been entered for certain settings. Check the settings for consistency in the names!

11. Go to: General / In & OutSite / Site.

    Once the Profit Update Service has been launched and linked to a web server with a site published on it, you will see the status of the publication in the view of the site(s). When the update service is ready, the status is Published in full. You can refresh this window using F5.
