When Wonderware Enterprise Integrator (WEI) 3.5

web.config file located in the C:\Inetpub\wwwroot folder on the server. Then
make a backup copy of the file. ·
Step 2: Open the
web.config in an editor that can edit an xml file. ·
Step 3: Locate the xml
node that contains <siteMap defaultProvider="SPSiteMapProvider"
enabled="true"> that is located under the <system.web>
node. Remove the defaultProvider element such that the node now contains <siteMap
enabled="true">. ·
Step4: Save the edited

Known Issues with WEI
3.5 Configurator Interface
Issue 1: If the WEI
management website or the WEI messaging services is manually removed the
Configurator will not recognize this and the 'Repair' button will not be
enabled enable. Issue 2: It is
possible to create a service with a name containing symbols that are not
supported by Windows. Invalid input with system
character pass through the creation stage but the service cannot be started
by the Configuration and Management Console. To work around this issue, the
service will have to be deleted using the Configurator and re-created using a
valid name. Issue 3: If a user
attempts to delete a service, using the Configurator, which still has Message
Locations associated to it, an empty message box will be displayed.
The service will not be deleted from the database but will be removed
from Windows. |
Known Issue with WEI
3.5 Message Service
Issue 1: If a
'read-only' file is dropped to a file folder or share (a message location of
type 'folder') the system will not read it in. The system will not provide an
error message or indication. |
