  • It also adds two expanders, Distribution Participants and Distribution Connections, for configuring the distribution in Manual or Automatic mode.
  • The Project Shares expander displays.
  • When the Distribution Participants expander is opened, it displays a default read-only entry for the currently selected project (Originator project) on the Local System. It also enables the Browse and Add buttons.
  1. In the Server Project Information expander, enter a unique number other than the default (4777) into the Dist port field. Valid values are 1 through 65535.
    NOTE: For configuring distribution between two or more projects running on a single server, all the ports including the dist port number must be unique. Otherwise, you cannot start them.

    NOTE: Since you have changed the project settings of the server project, you must align all linked web applications in the client project with the modified settings. For more information, see Aligning a Web Application with the Server Project.
