Web DataWindow on COM+ or IIS

You can run the Web DataWindow server component on COM+ using ASP as the page server. You can also run the Web DataWindow on a Microsoft IIS application server.

Files required on the COM+ or IIS server

Two types of files are required on the COM+ or IIS server:

• The PBLs or PBDs containing the definitions of your DataWindow objects.

  Make sure that they are installed in a directory on the system path.

  Use the system path and system DSNs Because COM+ and IIS both run as system services, required files must be available on the system path and data sources must be defined as system DSNs. The user path and user DSNs are not referenced by the server.

• PowerBuilder runtime files and PBDWR105.DLL, which contains the implementation of the DataWindow HTMLGenerator component.

  Table 41-20: PowerBuilder files required on COM+ or IIS server

  Name	Description
  PBVM105.DLL	PowerBuilder virtual machine
  PBSHR105.DLL	Required by PBVM105.DLL
  LIBJCC.DLL	Required by PBVM105.DLL
  LIBJUTILS.DLL	Required by LIBJCC.DLL
  PBDWE105.DLL	DataWindow support
  PBODB105.DLL	PowerBuilder ODBC interface
  PBODB105.INI	PowerBuilder ODBC interface setup file
  PBDWR105.DLL	DataWindow HTMLGenerator component

Installed path If PowerBuilder is not installed on the COM+ or IIS server computer, these files must be installed in a directory on the system path on the COM+ or IIS server. They can be obtained from the Sybase\Shared\PowerBuilder directory on the computer on which PowerBuilder is installed.

Registry entries If PBDWR105.DLL was copied from another computer, it must be registered on the COM+ or IIS server.

Notes ODBC data sources must be defined as system DSNs. For more information about configuring ODBC, see “Configuring ODBC data sources and drivers”.

If COM+ is hosting the server component and running on a different computer from IIS, you need to create a client install package and install it on the IIS server.

Files required on the ASP server

To use ASP as the page server and connect to the COM+ or IIS component using ActiveX, the following files are required on the ASP server computer:

HTML pages, templates, and scripts These are the files that you created for your application. If you used a Web target to generate these files, you can set up a deployment configuration in PowerBuilder to deploy them to ASP. For more information, see Working with Web and JSP Targets.
