Running the new_virdirs Script

You run the new_virdirs script to add the virtual directory for the specified language that Siebel Composer (the Siebel Web Tools application) uses. Perform this task after you perform the task to edit the new_virdirs script. For more information, see Editing the new_virdirs Script.

NOTE:  If running the new_virdirs script does not create the required virtual directory, then you must restore the files on the Web server from the backup files that you created in Step 2.

To run the new_virdirs script

1. Navigate to SWSE_HOME/config.

   In this directory, SWSE_HOME is the SWSE installation location. (Use the backslash for Microsoft Windows; use the forward slash for UNIX or Linux.)

2. Open a command window or shell window and run a command as follows:
   • On Microsoft Windows, run a command like the following command:

   new_virdirs.bat ENU

   • On UNIX or Linux operating systems, run a command like the following command:

   ./new_virdirs.sh ENU webserverlocation

   In this command, webserverlocation is the installation location of the web server instance.

3. Specify the anonymous user for Siebel Composer by adding parameters like the following parameters to the eapps.cfg file:

   AnonUserName = guestusername

   AnonPassword = guestuserpassword

   Specify the anonymous user name and password in each language-specific application section.

   NOTE:  Add values similar to the values defined for other applications. In most cases, the AnonPassword value represents an encrypted value. To specify a different password, first encrypt the password by using the encryptstring utility. For more information, see Siebel Security Guide.

4. Restart the Web server.
5. Start a browser and start the Siebel Web Tools application by entering an appropriate URL, such as the following URL:

   http://server_name/webtools_enu

   In this command, server_name is the name of your server.
