Supported Platforms
Microsoft Personal Web Server
(PWS)TM

General

The PWS 1.0, 2.0 and 4.0 work very well with heitml. All you need to do is to install heitml after installing the PWS. You might need to uninstall heitml if you did it in the wrong order. The heitml setup program will take care of everything else. For PWS on Windows NT, read the Internet Information Server 2.0/3.0 and 4.0/5.x pages.

Note: Neither heitml nor any other application can be configured for the restricted version of PWS that comes with Microsoft FrontPage. You should use the stand-alone PWS 1.0, 2.0 or 4.0 described below.

PWS for Windows Me or Windows XP Home Edition

Microsoft does not support PWS on Windows Me and Windows XP Home Edition.

PWS 4.0 for Windows 95/98

PWS 4.0 download and installation

For Windows 95, PWS 4.0 is shipped with the Microsoft Windows NT Option Pack 4.0 which can be downloaded from Microsoft's Web site. You need to have installed Microsoft's Internet Explorer 4.01 before you can install PWS 4.0. Get further installation instructions from Microsoft's Web site. For Windows 98, PWS 4.0 is shipped as an add-on with the Windows 98 CD and can be installed through 'Control Panel/Software/Windows-Setup'.

Stop/Start PWS 4.0 on Windows 95/98

If there is a 'Personal Web Server' icon on the taskbar do the following:

  • With the secondary mouse button click the 'Personal Web Server' icon on the taskbar and choose 'Stop Service' from the popup menu.
  • With the secondary mouse button click the 'Personal Web Server' icon on the taskbar and choose 'Start Service' from the popup menu.
If there is no 'Personal Web Server' icon on the taskbar, start the 'Personal Web Manager' from the program group 'Personal Web Server' on Windows 95 or from the program group 'Internet Explorer/Personal Web Server' on Windows 98 and click the 'Stop' or 'Start' button.

Verifying the heitml configuration for PWS 4.0

Verify that the virtual directory /heitml2.1 exists and is mapped onto C:\heitml2.1\htdocs\heitml2.1,,205 where "C:\heitml2.1" is the directory where you installed heitml2.1.
You can do this by starting the 'Personal Web Manager', clicking on the 'Advanced' icon and checking the virtual directory /heitml2.1 for Read and Execute permissions.
You can also use the Windows Explorer to verify this mapping by clicking on the directory C:\heitml2.1\htdocs\heitml2.1, choosing 'Properties' from the 'File' menu and choosing the 'Web Sharing' tab.

PWS 1.0 and 2.0 for Windows 95

PWS 1.0 or 2.0 download and installation

We recommend using PWS 4.0 or later, if you have not yet installed PWS, since there are no download links anymore to the versions 1.0 and 2.0 of PWS on Microsoft's Web site. Nevertheless, you'll find the US-English version of PWS (1.0a) on the Microsoft Project 98 CD-ROM. There were also non-English versions of PWS available like the German version of PWS.

Start/Stop PWS 1.0 or 2.0

After Installation of heitml you need to restart the Web server. This works as follows:

  1. Open the Control Panel. Find the 'Personal Web Server' or 'Web-Server' icon and double click on it.
  2. In the 'Properties of Personal Web Server' window, click on the 'Startup' Tab. A message will appear telling you the current state of the Web Server. At this point in time it should say 'The Web Server is stopped.' Click on the 'Start' button and the message will change to 'The Web Server is Running.' Click on OK to close the window. Alternatively, you can choose the 'Services' tab, choose the 'HTTP' service, click the 'End' button, click the 'Start' button and click 'OK' to close the window.
  3. Close the Control Panel Window.

Verifying the heitml configuration for PWS 1.0 or 2.0 (or IIS 2.0/3.0)

 1. In this step you verify the association of files with extension .hei and
    the heitml application. To do this, start the Registry Editor and verify that

 \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\W3SVC\Parameters\ScriptMap\.hei	

 is set to 

 "C:\heitml2.1\program\heitmlisapi.dll" (ISAPI version)
 "C:\heitml2.1\program\heitml.exe /C %s" (CGI version)


 where "C:\heitml2.1" is the directory where you installed heitml 2.1.

 2. In this step you verify the association of files with extension .ini and
    the heitml application. To do this, start the Registry Editor and verify that

 \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\W3SVC\Parameters\ScriptMap\.ini	

 is set to 

 "C:\heitml2.1\program\heitmlisapi.dll" (ISAPI version)
 "C:\heitml2.1\program\heitml.exe" (CGI version)

 where "C:\heitml2.1" is the directory where you installed heitml 2.1.

 3. In this step you verify that the virtual root /heitml2.1 exists for PWS.
    To do this, start the Registry Editor and verify that

 \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\W3SVC\Parameters\Virtual Roots\/heitml2.1	

 is set to 

 "C:\heitml2.1\htdocs\heitml2.1,,5"

 where "C:\heitml2.1" is the directory where you installed heitml 2.1.

 4. Stop and restart the server or reboot your machine.

 5. If you use a proxy server, configure your browser so that no
    proxy server is used for localhost.

 6. Double-click the 'doc' icon in the 'RADpage with heitml' program group.

Creating new Virtual Directories

Using the PWS administrative functions you can create new virtual directories that are shown in the WWW. Note that you have to enable execute permission in these directories in order to make heitml work.
