Note

./core/admin has been renamed to ./core/webtop in a bid to clarify the intent of these areas of the code base. Having made these changes now, we're hoping this will not put any additional burden on developers above changes required to accommodate the implementation of Application.cfc

Target Deployment Configurations

Excerpt

With the release of Fortress there will be There are several recommended deployment options. Given the flexibility of the environment many other configurations are possible, however, they will not be specifically tested for. These deployment options will be fully supported in the Fortress FarCry Core installer.

Standalone

Tip

Default installer configuration option.

...

Info
titleOptional: Remapping /farcry/core/webtop

The standalone configuration will default to users needing to reference the webtop via /farcry/core/webtop. If you want to change this to something else, for example, abbreviating to /webtop you will need to make a couple of configuration changes. Firstly, you'll need a web virtual (we'll assume you can handle this yourself). Then you will need to update the application.url.farcry to reference your new mapping, such as "/webtop", in your project's ./config/serverSpecificVars.cfm file. application.url.farcry is a global constant that maps functionality under the webtop via a reference relative to the webroot of your project.

Sub-Directory

Tip

Recommended for local development only.

Note

In this example, c:\hostapps\myproject\farcry\projects\myproject\www is moved or copied to c:\hostapps\webroot\myproject
