If Web Manager is not opened, double-click the icon:
The two indicators for the SC HomeWork MAD Server (HUB Server) and the SC HomeWork WEB Server will initially be shown as gray. After the configuration is completed, these indicators should turn green to show that servers are ruining and ready to connect the students from inside the school network and from the Web using the school's public IP. If for any reason the indicators remain gray or turn red, there is a problem that must be resolved.
To configure Web Manager open the configuration panel:
Change Port: 80
To connect from the Public IP, the default TCP port on the local IP (Windows Server Hosting Web Manager) is 80.
If this port is not available, you can select a random port, like 8080, to replace it.
The new port will show in the configuration:
When replacing TCP port 80 with another, the redirection from the public IP will need to include the replacing port.
Support for Web apps
Always check this box to give access from your public IP to Teacher and Student Web Apps.
Server Identification
The WEB Manager uses this information to understand the location of the SmartClass database.
The server identification panel is shown below:
You need to select "Use dedicated server for storage of Database and Medis Files" as below
The server PC name is the network path to reach the shared folder "SmartClass-Server" hosted on your Windows Server or NAS.
We recommend using a hidden folder ($).
Save and restart Web Manager, before the next steps.
After restarting, the two indicators for the SC HomeWork MAD Server (HUB Server) and the SC HomeWork WEB Server will initially be shown as green, indicating that the servers are running and are available to connect SC apps on the network and from the web.
If they are still gray, please Contact us. We will help you find what is the issue.
Note: the format for the path information is abbreviated. Do not enter the “\\” characters in front of the server name, and do not include “Smartclass-Server” as part of the path information. File names should not include SPACES. An example path is:
<server-name>\<hidden-high-level-folder-name$>
If you will be linking the SmartClass users with your school’s LDAP Directory, the path must include an \LDAP folder parent for the SmartClass-Server folder.
<server-name>\<hidden-high-level-folder-name$>\LDAP
