To view on the Internet, as well as on an Intranet or a local machine, users must install and configure IIS (Internet Information Services), or another Internet server.

IIS is supplied along with Windows. To install and configure it, follow these procedures:

1.Open the Start - Control Panel menu on Windows 7 SP1, or open the Apps - Windows System - Control Panel item on Start screen on Windows 8 and Windows 8.1. On Windows 10, right-click the Start menu and select the Control Panel item.

2.Click Programs and Features.

3.Click Turn Windows features on or off.

6.IIS then start its installation process.

7.Wait for this process to finish to configure IIS.

After installing IIS, e3web.asp, e3web2.asp, docwrite.asp, docwrite2.asp, and e3downloader.cab files must be copied to c:\inetpub\wwwroot. This folder is created during IIS installation. Apart from .asp files, WebViewer installer (e3webviewer-x86-enu.exe) must be copied to this folder. This installer is used when a client machine accesses a server for the first time, in case E3 was not previously installed on that machine. This file can be downloaded from Elipse Software's website.

IIS still needs to be configured to work correctly. Configuration is different in case IIS and E3 Server are on the same machine or on different machines. To configure it, please check the E3 Installation Guide, chapter WebViewer Installation.
