Chapter 214

Once you have specified the directory where you’ll store your application directories, you must

create a directory inside it for each client application you plan to use with that virtual host. Each

client application must have a directory with the same name that the client application uses when

connecting to the server. Once you have created a subdirectory for each of your applications, you

can decide whether to give any of the applications their own Application.xml file. By including an

Application.xml file in a client application’s directory, you can give that application different

settings from those defined in the virtual host’s Application.xml file, which serve as the default

settings for applications on the virtual host. For more information about the Application.xml file,

see Chapter 3, “Configuring Flash Communication Server,” on page 25.

Configuring virtual hosts

With the Enterprise and ISP versions of the server, you can add virtual hosts to the server’s

configuration. This is useful for separating sets of applications and allows you to define

administrators who have access only to a specific virtual host.

Each virtual host on the server is associated with an adaptor. You add a virtual host by adding a

directory inside the adaptor’s directory in the server’s conf directory. The virtual host’s directory

must be named with the virtual host name, such as www.myCompany.com.

Each new virtual host must include the following items:

• A Vhost.xml file.

• An Application.xml file.

• A directory named admin in the virtual host’s flashcom application directory (defined in the

VHost.xml file). This ensures that the Administration Console (admin.swf) will be able to

connect to the virtual host. For more information, see Using the Administration Console.

Uploading server-side scripts

In developing client applications for Flash Communication Server, you may decide to use server-

side scripts to implement some of their functionality. Server-side scripts should be uploaded to

the application directory for the application that uses them, or to a “scripts” directory inside the

application’s directory.

If you create server-side scripts that use characters that are not in the classic 7-bit ASCII character

set, such as non-English characters, you must use a text editor that encodes text in UTF-8 format.

Macromedia Dreamweaver MX encodes text in this format. (A list of text editors that use the

UTF-8 format is available at http://www.thefreecountry.com/developercity/editors.shtml.)

Script files that are encoded in UTF-8 format must be transferred to the server via a binary

file transfer.

For more information about using server-side scripts, see Developing Communication Applications.
