ILLiad Server Automatic Updater

Directory Information

The following directory paths are needed for the Updater to work correctly.

The trailing ** on the values must be included. These tell the Updater to put the files in the specified folder.

Directory TypeDescription

(from which all of the ILLiad web pages run). Often found in the same relative location on another drive letter.

Note: In a Shared Server system, this will be the root ILLiad
web folder instead of a site-specific web folder.

Default: C:\inetpub\wwwroot\illiad\

containing the WebReports and WebCirc. This is almost
always identical to the Web Page Directory.
