Server parameters

 

The server administrator can define the server’s parameters using the remote administrator.

 

The server parameters correspond to:

·  options applying to all the dynamic sites located on the server, and that can’t be set per site: maximum number of server connections, maximum duration of a request, etc.

·  options applying to each of the dynamic sites found on the server and that can be modified by the site manager, for one of the sites: disconnect inactive Web users, maximum number of connections to a site, etc.

 

The connection parameters setting is performed through the following options:

·  Maximum number of connections on the server: Maximum number of simultaneous connections authorized for all the Dynamic WebDev sites managed by the administrator (a connection = a web user).

·  Maximum number of connections to a site: Maximum number of simultaneous connections authorized for each site managed by the administrator. This parameter will be automatically offered when setting parameters for a specific site ("By default" option).

·  Maximum number of connections per site user: Maximum number of simultaneous connections for the same Web user authorized for each site managed by the administrator.

If this parameter is set to zero, a Web user trying to simultaneously connect to the same site, will automatically be disconnected then reconnected.

If this parameter is greater than zero, an error message will automatically be displayed after x simultaneous connections.

This parameter will be automatically offered when setting parameters for a specific site ("By default" option).

·  Maximum request timeout: Maximum amount of waiting time authorized between the start of an action by the Web user (through a button or a link) and the display of a response. If this time is exceeded, an error page is displayed, but the Web user is not disconnected.

·  Disconnect Web users inactive for: Maximum connection time authorized without any Web user action. If this time is exceeded, the Web user is automatically disconnected, and an error message is displayed. This parameter will be automatically offered when setting parameters for a specific site ("By default" option).
