4.2 Server Management for Linux

When Chili!Soft ASP is installed, it is associated with a web server, allowing it to handle Active Server Page requests. The installation can also be associated with additional web servers so that they, too, can handle ASP requests. Each of these associations is called an "ASP Server", which is identified by the path to the webserver, and a user-supplied "friendly name". For example, the web server at `/opt/apache/server1' might be known as the "Marketing Website" and the web server at `/opt/apache/server2' as the "Development Website". Each of these ASP Servers can be administered separately.
 
The top level page shows all installed ASP Servers with their "friendly name". It also shows the status of the Server (running, stopped), links for stopping or starting a Server, a link to remove a server, and a link to the properties of each ASP Server (Virtual Hosts, Database, Applications, Settings, Logs).
 
Each ASP Server will show a "Restart Required" link if a setting has been changed that requires the ASP Server to be restarted (stopped and started again). The documentation will use the indication [RESTART REQUIRED] for any configuration changes that require the ASP Server to be restarted.
 

Note:

Restarting an ASP Server will reset all existing Session and Application variables. Where a restart is required, it will be indicated in the text as: [RESTART REQUIRED]
