Verifying installation
The system is now configured. The default values that are established allow you to start publishing databases to
the web with FileMaker Server Advanced.
To verify installation, try Instant Web Publishing. Web-enabled databases on FileMaker Server should now be
accessible via the Instant Web Publishing homepage. Try accessing the sample database (FMServer_Sample) that
is installed with FileMaker Server.
1. Connect to the Instant Web Publishing homepage by pointing a compatible web browser (Safari on Mac OS
or Internet Explorer on Windows) to the URL:
http://localhost/fmi/iwp
2. The Database Homepage displays a list of databases accessible using Instant Web Publishing.
3. Click one of the database names to log in to the database.
You should see your FileMaker database rendered as a web page.
