Hummingbird Deployment

FTP Process

For deployment projects, if you need to FTP the wizard-generated files from your output folder to a web server directory, make sure you include all of the following files:

  • All of the package (.dpf) files, the Package Assembly (.dpa) files, and any .cab or .jar files for the project (located in a subfolder called hepackages).
  • The .htm file for the project.
  • Any images you specified for the project. If your web server has a separate folder for images, FTP these images to the correct folder.

For HTML indexes, FTP the following files:

  • The .htm file for the index.
  • The background image for the index (if any). If your web server has a separate folder for images, FTP these images to the correct folder.

Hummingbird provides an FTP program that you can operate from within Hummingbird Neighborhood. .

Note: 
  When copying files from the output folder to a web server directory, you must preserve the original directory structure.
