Images Folder

Visual LANSA Framework

Images Folder

For a System i web server this is the folder where you have put LANSA for the Web images (the LANSA for the Web Images folder). This is the actual IFS directory, not the HTTP alias assigned to it.

For pre Version 11.0 LANSA systems the default LANSA for the Web images folder is LANSAIMG.

For brand new Version 11.0 LANSA systems, the default LANSA for the Web images folder is /LANSA_dc@pgmlib/webserver/images

Type in the IFS directory name of your LANSA for the Web images folder.

For a Windows web server this is the HTTP alias name of the folder where you have put your LANSA for the Web images. If your Windows server is using IIS, by default the HTTP alias name assigned to it is Images. If you are unsure, please contact your Web Server Administrator.

Type in the Windows web server images alias name.

Verify the path name is correct and that the folder is accessible by clicking on the Verify button.

Note that by default, Directory Browsing is disabled in IIS. To enable Directory Browsing, go to the Control Panel/Administrative Tools and double click on  Internet Information Services. Expand the local computer, then the Web Sites folder, then the Default Web Site folder. Right-click on the Images folder, select Properties and tick the Directory Browsing box.

The resulting Internet Explorer display should show the index of the images folder.

If the verification process fails, stop and resolve the problem before proceeding further.

This property is in the Developer Preferences – Web Server tab.
