Question

4.5 Apache requirement

I'm trying to find in the documentation why Apache is required for the feature set that FMIS 4.5 provides.  Is it that there are modules/scripts/other built in to that Apache build that make the features work.... or is it that Apache is simply pre-configured to work and provide these services?

If it's merely a configuration issue, is there an outline somewhere of the set up so I can mirror the setup with iis?

    Is it that there are modules/scripts/other built in to that Apache build that make the features work.. ---- Yes - that is the reason Apache is required for the feature set that FMIS 4.5 provides specially HTTP Dynamic Live Streaming and Apple HTTP Streaming

    Thank you for the reply.  In the past, i removed Apache as we were getting pretty frequent security bulletins on the software, and our support staff only worked with IIS.  It seems now that won't be an option.

    Does Adobe provide a site or resource on maintaining Apache since it's pretty bound to the operation of the FMIS product?  If so, can you point me to that page/doc/manual, etc?

    Hi Carphuntin,

    Yes, Adobe maintains this site for information about configuring and maintaining the bundled Apache server
