Hi,

I have a few questions:

1. Can Ultidev Cassini be run as a normal application and NOT as a Windows Service? Ie, can I use my application to bootstrap Cassini and fire it up as a background process? I do not really want to leave a webserver running on my user's computers.

2. Does it have to be run in Administrator mode on Vista like Microsoft's Cassini does? And/or are there any known issues with this version of Cassini on Vista?

3. What's the easiest way of setting up my website using an installer once Cassini is installed? Do I have to use the API or can I just set a registry key?

Thanks,

Nick...

Nick,

1-2. UltiDev Cassini requires installation because request processing assembly must be registered in the GAC. Once UltiDev Cassini is installed, an ASP.NET application can be hosted by Cassini process launched as a regular EXE. Installation process requires Administrator rights.
3. Whether to use API for application registration depends on your use case. If you author the installation using Visual Studio, then the best way is to use the procedure described in the Programmer's Guide. If you use InstallShield or other installation creation tools, you could use Cassini command line mode. If your use case is complex and requires multiple applications registration, then your best bet is Cassini Configuration API for .NET.

Please let us know if this information has helped.
