Ektron® eWebEditPro and eWebEditPro+XML Installation Manual

Registering Server-Side COM
Objects
Registering ektronfileio.dll in ASP
NOTE
WARNING!
The ASP database sample uses the server-side COM object
ektronfileio.dll to write binary files (for example, image files) to the
server. Images can be uploaded using standard HTTP via a Web
page or directly from the editor using FTP.
So, if you are using ASP, you must register ektronfileio.dll on the
server. If you’re using another server platform (such as ASP.NET),
you can ignore this section.
If the ektronfileio.dll is not registered on the server, only the image upload feature
is disabled. All other functions will operate normally.
Do not redistribute ektronfileio.dll. Do not install ektronfileio.dll on a client.
You only need to perform this procedure if you installed
eWebEditPro sample files using the .zip file. If you installed using
the .exe file, ektronfileio.dll is registered if you respond positively to
this question that appears during installation:
Do you want to register the Ektron file upload component for ASP? If not,
you will need to use another mechanism to upload images in ASP.
Procedure for Registering Ektronfileio.dll
1. Click the Windows Start button.
2. Click Run.
3. Type Cmd then click OK.
4. The command.com window appears. Make sure that the C
directory is selected.
5. Move to the directory in which you will register ektronfileio.dll
by typing cd \inetpub\wwwroot\ewebeditpro5.
