PROBLEM
I am using ArcIMS on a multiple computer configuration and I cannot view the map on my
HTML Viewer.
ArcIMS Designer may be on a different computer than the computer where the ArcIMS
Application Server is located.
If ArcIMS Designer is on a different computer than the computer where the ArcIMS
Application Server is located, then the global variable in ArcIMSparam.js called formFilePath will point to a location relative to the ArcIMS Designer computer and not the ArcIMS Application Server computer.
The formFilePath variable is used to locate header.htm and footer.htm for the ArcIMS
Servlet Connector, which in turn creates the proper response form in PostFrame.
In the form, the file location of header.htm and footer.htm files are passed as values. The web server computer must be able to understand and resolve the formFilePath and
access the file locations. For example, if you have a distributed system, any mounted drives used in these pathnames must be accessible from the web server.
To test if the ArcIMS Servlet Connector is finding the location, in viewer.htm change the
following line from
Code:
document.writeln(‘<FRAMESET ROWS="’ + (30+addNS) + ‘,*,30,1"
FRAMEBORDER="No" FRAMESPACING="0" onload="doIt()" BORDER=0 ‘ + moreStuff +
‘>’);
Code:
document.writeln(‘<FRAMESET ROWS="’ + (30+addNS) + ‘,*,30,100"
FRAMEBORDER="No" FRAMESPACING="0" onload="doIt()" BORDER=0 ‘ + moreStuff +
‘>’);
