To Set Up a Gateway Service to Publish Datasource Lists from One or More Servers
- Install ProjectWise Gateway Service on a computer that your ProjectWise clients can access (a computer on the same subnet, if possible).
- In any text editor, open the ProjectWise Gateway Service's dmskrnl.cfg file located in the ...\ProjectWise\Bin directory.
-
Find and make sure the lines Databases=db0 is uncommented.
To uncomment a line, remove the semicolon from the beginning of the line.
- Find and make sure the line ConnectionSrv=1 is also uncommented.
-
Below the line ConnectionSrv=1 you will see several commented out settings that enable datasource list publishing. To enable publishing of just one server's datasource list, configure the following section of lines:
Databases=db0 [db0] DsServer=1 Server=INTSERVER
Though it is actually further up in the dmskrnl.cfg file, the line Databases=db0 is shown in this location to give context.
The line Server= is where you specify the name or IP address of the ProjectWise Design Integration Server computer. In this example, we are assuming the ProjectWise Design Integration Server computer name is INTSERVER.
-
For each additional server you want to publish, add another entry to the Databases= line (db1, db2, and so on), and then add a corresponding server section below it. For example, the following section enables the publishing of three ProjectWise Design Integration Server's datasource lists:
Databases=db0,db1,db2 [db0] DsServer=1 Server=INTSERVER [db1] DsServer=1 Server=INTSERVER2 [db2] DsServer=1 Server=INTSERVER3
