This topic describes how to configure a Web server to run with Chili!Soft ASP, if you did not do so during installation.
Note
This information does not apply to Cobalt platforms. On Cobalt platforms, the Web server is configured automatically during installation.
When you configure a Web server to run with Chili!Soft ASP, either during installation or afterwards (as described in this topic), the setup program makes certain changes to your Netscape and Apache Web Server configuration files, as described in the following topics:
· Changes to Netscape Web Server Configuration Files
· Changes to Apache Web Server Configuration Files
In addition, after configuring an Apache Web Server that does not support Dynamic Shared Objects (DSO) to run with Chili!Soft ASP you must make changes to your Web server, as described in the following topic:
· Configuring a Non-DSO Apache Web Server
Use the following procedure to configure a Web server if you did not do so during a custom installation of Chili!Soft ASP:
To configure a Web server after installation

2. Select the radio button of the Web server you want to configure, and then go to step 4.
- or –
Click Search Webservers to refresh the list of detected Web servers, and then go to step 3.
