844 Part IX: Maintaining a Server in Windows SharePoint Services<br />

it as detailed earlier in this chapter. If the Online gallery is not listed under Add Web<br />

Parts, one or both of the following conditions are true:<br />

■ Access to the online Web Part Page gallery is disabled on the virtual server.<br />

■ Your server is behind a proxy server or firewall; the proxy server settings are<br />

not specified in the Web.config file for the virtual server.<br />

To resolve this issue, enable access to the online Web Part Page gallery on the<br />

virtual server. If your server is behind a proxy server or firewall, you must also edit<br />

the Web.config file to include the proxy server settings for the virtual server where<br />

you want to enable the online Web Part Page gallery. In a server farm environment,<br />

you must edit the Web.config file for each virtual server in every front-end Web<br />

server in the server farm.<br />

To configure the Web.config file, follow these steps:<br />

1. Start a text editor, such as Notepad.<br />

2. Locate <strong>and</strong> open the Web.config file for the virtual server where you want to<br />

enable access to the online Web Part Page gallery. The default location of the<br />

Web.config is in the following folder: :\Inetpub\wwwroot. Check<br />

that this is the correct location by using the Internet Information Server (IIS)<br />

Manager, <strong>and</strong> under the Web Sites section, right-click the appropriate virtual<br />

server, select Properties, <strong>and</strong> then click the Home Directory tab where you<br />

can take note of the local path name.<br />

3. Locate the entry near the end of the Web.config file.<br />

4. Copy <strong>and</strong> paste the following lines to the Web.config file, immediately after the<br />

entry, where is the name of your proxy server<br />

<strong>and</strong> is the port that you are using:<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

5. Save the Web.config file, <strong>and</strong> then close the text editor.<br />

Repeat steps 1 through 5 for each virtual server where you want to enable<br />

access to the online Web Part Page gallery.<br />

If your organization runs Windows SharePoint Services on multiple servers,<br />

you might want to create an online Web Part Page gallery as a central location for<br />

deploying Web Parts to all your SharePoint sites.
