Host Information Lookup on your web server

Information Lookup can optionally be hosted on a Microsoft Internet Information Service (IIS) web server.

To host Information Lookup on your web server, complete the following steps:

Download and unzip the Information Lookup application files.
Copy the contents to your web server so it can be accessed as a website or virtual directory. In IIS, the default web server directory is <your directory>\Inetpub\wwwroot\.

Note

You may need to setup and use a proxy page to support sharing and secure services. View the Using the proxy page for details on installing and configuring a proxy page. If your site needs a proxy, the one that comes with the project will likely be sufficient after you have converted the site to an IIS application.
Browse to Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager.
Right-click the web server directory folder for the application and choose Convert to Application.
Choose the ASP.NET v4.0 application pool and click OK.

Note

If you do not see ASP.NET v4.0 as an option in the menu, install and configure it with your web server.
