How to run SpellChecker application on Windows 2003 Server
- Check the version of Spellchecker application.
Please check the version of the Spellchecker system installation. Windows 2003 Server is supported starting from Spellchecker version 1.0.0.0 or later. Download an updated installation if necessary. The most recent version is available from our site: http://www.spellchecker.net/files/wsc_scayt.exe.
Important: Please do not use old versions.
- Allow CGI script to run on your IIS Server.
After activation, IIS Server included in Windows 2003 disables for security reasons all web server extensions, including CGI extension that our application heavily relies on.
In order to enable these extension, open IIS Manager and locate the "Web Service Extensions" node in the tree on the left panel. After you click this node, you will see all the extensions installed for your IIS. Select "All Unknown CGI Extensions" and click "Enable" button.
Warning: This change will enable CGI files on your entire Web site, not only for the SpellChecker system.
- Check that SpellChecker works.
In your browser, open the following URL:
http://<your_spellchecker_server>/spellcheck/sproxy/sproxy.cgi?cmd=ver
If you have enabled CGI correctly, you will see the version of the installed sproxy
Note for Windows 2003 users: By default, JavaScript is disabled for all sites if Internet Explorer is used in Windows 2003. To use the SpellChecker service, add the site to the "Trusted sites" security zone in Internet Explorer.
