Deployment tasks checklist

The following table describes the tasks you need to perform to successfully deploy Contribute.

Task Description

Configure network and

server permissions

Ensure that the network and server permissions allow read, write, and modify

access so that Contribute users can connect to the site and update pages.

For more information, see “Preparing your web server before you deploy” on

page 11.

Plan your site structure

and connection path

Plan your site structure, including considerations for subsites or multiple connec-

tions, and determine your connection path.

For more information, see “Planning your Contribute site structure and connec-

tion path” on page 15.

Install Contribute and

create an administrative

website connection

Install Contribute on the computer from which you’ll administer the site, create a

connection to the website by using Contribute, and establish yourself as the

Contribute administrator for the site.

To learn more about creating an administrative connection, see “Installing

Contribute and creating an administrative connection” on page 21.

Install Contribute

Publishing Server (CPS)

(optional)

CPS is a suite of Java server applications that lets you integrate Contribute with

Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) or Active Directory services, and

implement e-mail notifications to keep Contribute users informed about the

status of their drafts in progress.

To use CPS, you must install and configure the server on a Java application server.

For more information, see “Installing Contribute Publishing Server (Optional)” on

page 23

Configure Contribute

settings and roles

Configure the administrative settings so that Contribute works more efficiently

with your website and create Contribute roles based on the privileges and restric-

tions you want to place on a user’s ability to access and edit pages in the site.

For more information, see “Configuring Contribute” on page 31.

Configure CPS user direc-

tory service (optional)

If you use CPS, configure the User Directory service: you must specify the user

directory type, and either configure CPS to access your LDAP or Active Directory

server, or enter user information into a file-based database. You can also configure

other CPS services now, or you can do it later.

For more information, see “Configuring Contribute Publishing Server (CPS only)”

on page 37.

Configure the Log and E-

mail services (optional)

Configure the log file and e-mail settings that CPS should use. You can configure

these CPS services now, or you can do it later.

For more information, see “Configuring Contribute Publishing Server (CPS only)”

on page 37.
