SLX 8.0 SDATA / Automatic Rebuild XMLSchema

[RRaebiger]

Hi,

after every change in our DB (new Field), we have problems with SDATA. After the rebuild of the XMLSchema everthing is fine again.

Is there a possibility to automate the rebuild?

When using http://server:3333/SlxClient/SLXGroupManager.aspx?action=RebuildXMLSchema i have to do a login. I have no idea how to do an autologin....

Thanks

Hi,

Afraid I don't the answer to the autologin, however the underlying issue is the problem and needs to be fixed, it is a real PITA every time there is any update to the schema, you get errors in the web client and have to run the Rebuild XMLSchema.

I appreciate this does not help you to automate the rebuild but a fix to the problem is what is really required here.

Regards

Craig

You could deploy a second portal to IIS and enable windows authentication on that portal. Then you should be able to access the above URL without needing to log in.

Simple but effective. :-)

This is actually the recommended way to deploy the web client when using Windows Authentication - deploy a separate portal with standard (SLX) authentication so admin can log in... go figure
