7.1.1 Creating a New Site Connection

To create a Web site, you must create a site connection that is used to connect to, and update, the Web site on the content server. If this is the first time you have opened Designer, you are automatically taken to this dialog. To create a site connection, perform these tasks:

1. Click the Site Connection Manager icon in the Site toolbar or select File, then Site,

and then Connection Manager to open the Site Connection Manager dialog. For more information, see Site Connection Manager Dialog on page A-14. Figure 7–1 Site Connection Manager icon

2. Click New to open the Site Connection Details dialog. For more information, see

Site Connection Details Dialog on page A-15.

3. In the Server Cgi URL text box, enter the Cgi URL address of the content server

that hosts your site. Rather than type the complete address of your server, you can choose an address in the menu replacing server with the name of your server. The default address, http:serverstellentidcplg, is for Oracle Content Server versions 7.x, 10gR3, and 10gR4. The two other addresses available from the drop-down list are for legacy versions: http:serverintradoc-cgiidc_cgi_isapi.dll for Windows, and http:serverintradoc-cginph-idc_cgi.exe for UNIX.

4. Click Connect. You may be prompted to enter your login credentials.

5. Click New to create a site on the content server.

The Create New Site dialog appears see Create New Site Dialog on page A-16. Or, to create a site connection using an existing Web site on the server, choose it from the list of names beside Site Label, and then skip to step 10.

6. Enter an ID for the Web site. The ID is used throughout your site, for example, in

the Web site URL and in the metadata for the files referenced by the site.

7. Enter a Name for the Web site.

Since the Site ID field is a full-text index field, you should take care to not use a Site ID that would appear in the full-text search engines stop list. If you do, your Site Studio site will not work as expected in Site Studio Designer. An example of this would be a web site for the World Health Organization, which might use the shortened site ID who. The name appears in Designer and the Web Sites menu in the content server. It can be a friendly name with spaces, if you like. Creating Your Web Site 7-3
