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

Summary<br />

You can use Wppackager to package <strong>and</strong> create an MSI for a Web Part solution.<br />

In addition, while packaging the Web Part, you can specify additional permissions<br />

to set for the Web Part during installation. This automates the installation of<br />

Web Parts, ensuring components are deployed <strong>and</strong> code access security permissions<br />

are applied to Web Part assemblies consistently <strong>and</strong> in a repeatable manner. Administrators<br />

can install Web Part assemblies directly to the GAC or to the Bin directory<br />

for the specified virtual servers according to the specified deployment plan. Administrators<br />

can also easily remove the Web Part solution by using Add Or Remove Programs<br />

on the front-end Web server.<br />

More Info See the white paper “Using Wppackager to Package <strong>and</strong> Deploy<br />

Web Parts for <strong>Microsoft</strong> SharePoint <strong>Products</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Technologies</strong>,” by Parikshit<br />

Pol, Andrew Birck, <strong>and</strong> Emilio Concepcion (<strong>Microsoft</strong> Corporation, September<br />

2003).<br />

This chapter completes the review of the basic concepts for Web Part Pages <strong>and</strong><br />

Web Parts <strong>and</strong> the customization of the default Web Part Pages <strong>and</strong> built-in Web<br />

Parts by using default tools such as the browser <strong>and</strong> the comm<strong>and</strong>-line tool<br />

Stsadm.exe. You can use Stsadm.exe to deploy Web Part packages to the GAC or to<br />

the Bin directory for specified virtual servers. This allows you to deploy Web Part<br />

packages across an entire organization or to only a limited set of sites, according to<br />

your requirements.
