Developers and licensing

Post by Harley » Mon Jul 21, 2008 2:44 pm

I am trying to incorporate some new pages for a client site, when I try to run the pages, the site is trying to connect to the clients server. I am seeing this by watching the status bar in the browser while its trying to load. It should be running locally. These are pages with code in them, in a code behind file, not within the page, so i cant just upload them, i need to run this locally to test things. How does anyone who develops deal with this?

The license code you are using for your developer install is keyed to the domain name. The AC7 engine automatically overrides the URL to enforce the licensing.

You will need either a separate "developers" key coded for your local IIS install (Ex. mine is 192.168.3.100) or simply enable the new Demo Mode feature.

Demo Mode can be enabled by editing the ~/App_Data/AbleCommerce.Config file as such:

Code: Select all

<application demoMode="true" ...>
