Configuring IIS with Audit Trail Reporting, or Laserfiche Federated Search

The Laserfiche Web Administration Console, Audit Trail Reporting, and Federated Search work with Microsoft's Internet Information Services (IIS) to provide access to repository components and auditing functionality. These products require Internet Information Services 10 or above.

When they are installed, these products will create their own virtual directories within the default IIS website, and will also create their own application pools. By default, these will be named as follows:

  • Audit Trail
    • Application Pool: AuditTrailAppPool
    • Virtual Directory (Web Reporter): AuditTrail
    • Virtual Directory (Configuration): AuditTrailConfig
  • Federated Search
    • Application Pool: FederatedSearchAppPool
    • Application Pool (Administration): FederatedSearchAdminAppPool
    • Virtual Directory: FederatedSearch

You will need to install certain additional IIS features in order for IIS to work with the Laserfiche web components.
