Active Roles Server - Multiple Web Interfaces

Hello, we have multiple load balanced web interfaces, is there and easy way to sync customizations of the forms between them?

Thanks,

  • Hello, Alex.

    Almost all Web interface customisation is stored in the database - not on the filesystem of the Web server. Hence, by definition, all instances of the Web interface (connected to the same Active Roles infrastructure) share customisation configuration.

    When you create a new instance of the Web interface, you are given the opportunity to select (or create) a named configuration for that site. Any site using the same named configuration will share customisation configuration.

    If you're not seeing this behaviour, then it's likely that, for some reason, you're using different named configurations for your sites when in fact you should be using a single, common configuration. There are other possible explanations as well, but this is the most common.

    There are some exceptions, with some specific configuration being stored locally on each Web server. This includes things like logging levels. I'm not positive, but colour scheme might also be stored locally.

    Hope than helps; let me know if anything is unclear.

    Shawn.
