Managing the Server 13

The default server adaptor uses port 1935, the number assigned to Flash Communication Server

by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (www.iana.org). Although you can use any port

number, this increases the risk of conflicting with another application that may be assigned to the

same port; for example, if you configure the server to use port 80 to support HTTP tunneling,

the server might not run both a web server and the Flash Communication Server bound to port

80. Applications must be authored to connect to the same port the server is using, in the

NetConnection.connect statement. Be sure the port is not blocked by a firewall.

The server is preconfigured with one adaptor containing one virtual host. The virtual host is

equivalent to a domain name. The default applications directory for the default virtual host is the

the applications directory in the Flash Communication Server directory. You can view this

location by looking at the value for the

<AppsDir> tag in the vhost.xml file. This directory is

where the server will look for application subdirectories at startup; you must place an application

subdirectory here for each client application that you plan to connect to the server, and the client

subdirectory must have the same name as the client application. The presence of the application

subdirectory registers the application with the server.

If you installed the sample applications, the applications directory includes sample applications

that are provided to illustrate the essential capabilities of the server. The server-side files for each

sample application reside in its self-named directory in the applications directory. The SWF files

for the sample applications are located in the samples subdirectory of either the web publishing

directory or the installation directory.

You can add adaptors and virtual hosts and change the location of the applications directory by

editing the server’s configuration files and creating directories in the server’s conf directory. For

more information, see Chapter 3, “Configuring Flash Communication Server,” on page 27.

The default server administrator has the user name and password you chose during the Flash

Communication Server installation, and is defined in the Server.xml configuration file. The server

administrator can connect to the Admin service with the Administration Console and perform a

variety of server administration tasks, including shutting down the server and disconnecting client

applications. (In the nomenclature of server administration, this server administrator is equivalent

to the “superuser.”)

Virtual host administrators can only perform tasks relating to the applications running on their

own virtual host. There are no virtual host administrators defined when the server is first

installed. Server administrators, including the default server administrator defined during

installation, have access to all virtual hosts. Server administrators can add or delete virtual host

administrators using the Administration Console. For more information about adding

administrators, see Adding and editing administrators.

Registering client applications

The server is configured at installation with one adaptor directory named _defaultRoot_

containing one virtual host directory named _defaultVHost_. The server defines its virtual hosts

at startup by searching for directories within the adaptor directory that contain valid Vhost.xml

files, such as the _defaultVHost_ directory. At the same time, the server defines each application

that will be allowed to connect to a virtual host by looking for application directories inside a

directory specified by the

<AppsDir> tag in the Vhost.xml file (by default, the applications

directory in the Flash Communication Server directory).

For example, if you create an application named my_app, you must create a my_app subdirectory

in the applications directory to register my_app.
