Install iPIMP on an IIS-Server? (1 Viewer)

[t-herweg]

Hello, can I install iPIMP on a Microsoft IIS 7 Server?

 

[cheezey]

Yes - I use IIS7 for dev/test purposes.

The process is not fully documented but if we use this thread to get a working set of instructions I'll update the wiki with them.

So to begin with I think you'll need to:

1. Run the iPiMP installer, select 'advanced' install and tick 'iPiMP web files', 'iPiMP transcode TV server plugin' and 'iPiMP MediaPortal client remote control plugin' (assuming you have TV Server, MP Client and IIS7 all installed on the same machine.)
2. Create a new website in IIS and point it to the location of the iPiMP web files
3. Create a virtual directory called TVLogos pointed to the location of the local TV logos
4. Create a virtual directory called MP4 pointed to the shared location of your transcoded MP4s
5. Update the app pool to run in 32bit mode

Give that a go and see what works/doesn't work.

Thanks

Find the app pool your site is running in, right click, select Advanced and change 'Enable 32-Bit Applications' to True.

Hi! I'm hittin a wall here. Maybe I'm too tired to undestand or I'm blind or dumb... or all above
I've got the Windows Home Server Vail RC, so that means OS is Windows Server 2008 R2 64bit and IIS7. I did the install with the above instructions and got to the login screen. After I try to login with admin or demo, I get /iPhone/Login.aspx page open as a text only as the attachment included.

About the setup. I use the WHS Vail 64bit, MSSQL2008R2 64bit, Web browser is Chrome

Also tried Nokia C7 default browser but in login screen there is only background pic, nothing else.
Nokia C7 and Opera mini I get the same as with Laptop+Chrome:

<div class="iMenu" id="waError"><div class="iBlock" ><h3>!! FUBAR !!</h3><p style="color:maroon;font-weight:bold">Attempt to write a read-only database
attempt to write a readonly database</p><p style="color:red;word-wrap:break-word;background-color:#ffffcc">   at Website.uWiMP.TVServer.SQLiteMembershipProvider.ValidateUser(String username, String password) in D:\Dev\vs2008\MediaPortal Universal Web Interface\Website\Code\Misc\SQLiteMembershipProvider.vb:line 1100 ... etc etc

Please, point me to the right direction :sorry:

I got the same error. In my case the "IIS_IUSRS" account didn't had modify permissions at the "..\App_Data" folder. After changing the permissions it worked for me

Problem solved - I hadn't set up the virtual directories for the logos.

I'm trying to do this, but those options are all greyed out?

The installer hasn't detected a TV server install - is it installed?
