This task is a step in "Process of Setting Up Siebel Mobile Connected Applications" and is required under the following conditions:
For new installations. The virtual directories are created by default in the language or languages selected during Siebel CRM installation. For example, if ENU and ESP are selected, then virtual directories are automatically added for ENU and ESP so it is not necessary to add them again. If you want to run your Siebel Mobile connected application subsequently in a new language, then you must run the new_virdirs script for each language that must be supported, but only after first completing all the standard tasks to install and deploy a new language.
For migration installations. You must run the new_virdirs script to add the virtual directories for new Siebel Mobile connected applications not present in any prior installation, for the existing installed and deployed languages. For Siebel Web Server Extension (SWSE), run the script once and specify all languages.
For additional languages. You must run the new_virdirs script after adding a new language on the Siebel Server, but only after first completing all the standard tasks to install and deploy a new language.
The following procedure shows you how to run the new_virdirs script to add virtual directories for Siebel Mobile connected applications. You create virtual directories on a particular Web server where SWSE is installed. You must create the virtual directories on every Web server that supports Siebel Mobile connected applications.
Note: For more information about new installations, migration installations, and additional language installations, including the standard tasks to install and deploy a new language and how to create custom virtual directories, see Siebel Installation Guide for the operating system you are using. |
To add virtual directories for Siebel Mobile using the new_virdirs script

Web server configuration files. For example, obj.conf, httpd.conf, and so on.
