Setup: I have FileMaker Server 7 Advanced (with IWP and CWP enabled) running on xServe/DP 1 GHz G4/Mac OS X Server 10.3.9/ 1 GB RAM. I applied all FileMaker updates. It's non-production at the moment, as I'm still testing EVERYTHING possible. It hosts ~ 42 databases at the moment. All databases located in default database location (/Library/FileMaker Server 7/Data/Databases), but they are in their own folders.

Question 1: How do I set it so a database is hidden (not visible) on IWP home page? I know in FM Pro 7, you go to FileMaker Pro -> Sharing -> Instant Web Publishing. However, this is all greyed out and no databases are listed when I do this in a FileMaker Server 7 Advanced hosted database.

Question 2: In FileMaker 7 IWP Guide, one IWP/FileMaker Server Advanced tip states "move the contents of the web folder to the root folder of the web server software. Make sure relative path is preserved." What does this mean?

Issue: In IWP, I can't see related info. Hosted databases are doing real well in FileMaker Pro. Relationships are in tact, related info shows in all the databases. In IWP, nada. No <file missing> or anything like that. Related fields are simply empty. These databases all located in their own folder (/Library/FileMaker Server 7/Data/Databases/Folder for example). Related databases are IWP enabled for full access. Also, this issue isn't the case for my other folder of databases (/Library/FileMaker Server 7/Data/Databases/OtherFolder for example). Related info show in those databases.

What am I missing?

I Appreciate all the assistance I can get. Thanx in advance.

Well, I fixed the Issue. Passwords between databases apparently NEED to be exact. For example, lets say pw was password in one Db, and Password in another, well, once I changed Password to password, all seemed well. I think I saw this solution in an fmforum actually. However, I don't think its documented by FileMaker. Should be.

Hi!

Does that apply to all passwords? In other words if base A contains the passwords NGC31 and M31, does base B have to contain them both as well, or will it be enough with only M31 if thats the only user that will be using base B?

Cheers,
