This number represents the number of MATLABs that can run
concurrently. After testing that everything is working properly, you can
change this number to something more convenient. On Windows NT edit
matlabserver.conf directly with a text editor.
Note To see any changes made to matlabserver.conf, you need to stop and
restart the MATLAB Web Server. See the section “Understanding
matlabserver” on page 3-5 for more information on matlabserver.conf.
On Solaris/Linux use the
webconf script to initialize the matlabserver.conf
file. Then edit this file to change options further, particularly those that
webconf cannot set on the command line.
3 Follow the directions provided by your Web server (httpd) to create the
needed aliases:
a The home or default directory
b /cgi-bin
c /icons
Point each of these aliases to <matlab>/toolbox/webserver/wsdemos to get
the demonstration programs to work.
If your application creates graphic (
jpeg) files, you need to provide a location
where MATLAB can write these for
httpd access, e.g, /icons. The mldir entry
associated with each application in the
matweb.conf file indicates the location
to MATLAB.
If you do not have permission to set up or change these aliases, you must place
copies of some files in locations where the
httpd can find them.
Copy
matweb (matweb.exe on Windows NT), found in
<matlab>/webserver/bin/arch, to the directory aliased by /cgi-bin or
equivalent. The supported architectures are Windows NT (
win32), Solaris
(
sol2), and Linux (glnx86).
