[FX.php List] Config problem

[Andrew Denman]

We had our setup like this as well and it worked OK.

You should only need port 80 open between the servers in this instance (with the default install), as WPE is serving the XML over machine 1's web server process.  Machine 2 is just using cURL via FX.php to access machine 1.

Bob,
            I have the same setup as Tanner outlined below except that it is now FM Server 9 and was 8, and it has worked for 3 years without a hitch.  But then it only gets high traffic for about a month or so.

That is how my setup is and it works fine.  Basically our website is hosted off-site by a 3rd party hosting company.  Then at our office we have FM Server 10 Advanced installed on a Mac Pro with Apache enabled.  So basically I am running my filemaker server as a 1 machine install and I have an external web server.

So here's my question:

I've only done 2-machine installs, where the WPE goes on the webserver.

Now I see, from re-reading the custom pub. PDF from FMI, that when the
WPE is installed, a web server module is also installed (wasn't aware
of this).

So since my clients put the WPE on the FileMaker Server machine but
didn't specify a web server, is this why their web app isn't working?

This is driving me crazy... I wish they'd just let me host it here and
be done with it...

So our latest plan is to have their IT guy uninstall FM Server, put it
back on their Windows iis machine, and have it run as web server and
FM server both. Anything I should caution them about for this type of
install?

Thanks,

Bob Patin
