Configuring the Web Publishing Engine 41
Disabling Custom Web Publishing with XML
By default, Custom Web Publishing with XML is enabled in the Web Publishing Engine. If necessary, you
can disable it.
To disable Custom Web Publishing with XML:
1. Do either of the following:
1 Click the Publishing Engine link at the top of the Administration Console page, and click the XML
Publishing link.
1 In the Overview page, click the XML Publishing link in the center of the page under the Publishing Engine
heading.
2. In the Publishing Engine Configuration: Custom Web Publishing with XML page, select Off.
3. If you are finished making configuration changes in the Administration Console, click Commit to save the
settings.
4. Restart the Administration Console and the web server. See “Using the Web Publishing Engine and
Administration Console services” on page 51.
Configuring Custom Web Publishing with XSLT
For Custom Web Publishing with XSLT, you can set the Web Publishing Engine in development or
production mode, and configure server-side stylesheet caching, a SMTP email server, and default text
encoding.
Setting the Web Publishing Engine mode
You can use the Web Publishing Engine in either of these modes:
1 Development mode: Use Development mode when you are developing and testing XSLT stylesheets. In
this mode, the Web Publishing Engine generates a web page with a specific error code number when an
error occurs in the Web Publishing Engine itself. You cannot enable server-side stylesheet caching in
Development mode.
1 Production mode: Use Production mode when you are ready to use the Web Publishing Engine to host
XSLT stylesheets. In this mode, the Web Publishing Engine displays a general text message defined in the
pe_server_error.html error page when an error occurs in the Web Publishing Engine.
For more information on error reporting for the Web Publishing Engine, see the FileMaker Server Advanced
Custom Web Publishing Guide.
