Getting Started With Tick-It

Part of the Tick-It system along with the RossVideo Xpression player is a Web and Data server component. For demoing porpoises, the web and data server can be installed on the RossVideo BlueBox or player system but if more than 1 concurrent user will be accessing the web based system, a separate server is recommended.

This guide is based on installing the BL product on Win Server 2012

This guide may have additional notes for installing on Windows 7

 

 

 

Configuring Windows Features / IIS

The basic features of a web server will need to be configured

  1. Open Control Panel/ Programs Features. 
  2. Enable IIS, Web Management Tools and WWW services in Windows Features. (Control Panel > Programs & Features > Turn Windows Features On/Off > expand Internet Information Services and enable the following:
  • Internet Information Services > Web Management Tools > IIS 6 Management Compatibility > IIS Metabase and IIS 6 configuration compatibility
  • Internet Information Services > Web Management Tools > IIS Management Console

  • Internet Information Services >World Wide Web Services > Common HTTP Features > Default Document, Directory Browsing, HTTP Errors, HTTP Redirection, Static Content
  • Internet Information Services >World Wide Web Services > Health and Diagnostics > HTTP Logging & Request Monitor
  • Internet Information Services >World Wide Web Services > Performance Features > Static Content Compression
  • Internet Information Services >World Wide Web Services > Security > Request Filtering



Now check Application Development Features and enable .NET 4.5

 

Disabled logging for IIS as it is not needed for internal systems. Open IIS Manager from the Control Panel > Administrative Tools

  • Focus on the TOP NODE of the IIS Manager and then double click on Logging to open it.
  • On the right, click the Disable link to turn logging off.

 


Installing Tick-It

Obtain the Bannister Super Ticker package here by getting the MSI and the setup.exe - http://bannisterlake.com/dl/installs/Super-Ticker/Flow/

Navigate to the SECURITY TAB and click the EDIT BUTTON. Select the IIS_USER User Name and then check the ALLOW MODIFY checkbox. Click OK. Close all dialogs.

 

 


Now repeat this with the Uploads folder.

 

Assigning A Serial Number
