Home Access Plus V10

[ITBlandster]

Hello, Is there anyway i can change the home access plus front page logo to my school logo? and which section do i have to remove from the web.config file for iis 8? It would be helpful if someone could print screen and highlight it for me as i get easily confused what is what.

 

Thx

Hi,

 

Not sure if you still need help with this, but to change the logo on HAP+ you can either:

1. Overwrite the image stored at /images/icons/metro/hap-logo-128.png
   
2. Open the /style/basestyle.css file, and look for line ~53. Replace the following bold text with the location of your logo, which should be located somewhere accessible via the web, probably in the images folder too:
   

#loginformside, #hapHomeSide { position: absolute; left: 0; width: 30%; top: 0; bottom: 0; background-image: url([i][b]../images/icons/metro/hap-logo-128.png[/b][/i]); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: center 30%; overflow: hidden; }

 

Note 1: Both of these methods overwrite main HAP+ files, so if/when an update for HAP+ arrives you will need to do these steps again.

Note 2: Ideally, your replacement image should be one of the same size and format as the original (128x128 pixels, PNG) unless you want to play with the CSS.

Note 3: I haven't tested this, but in theory it works

 

I am assuming that you've found out what lines to remove in the web.config file from this post: http://www.edugeek.net/forums/home-access-plus/172864-home-access-plus-v10-windows-server-2012-r2.html#post1483079

Hello, Sorry about the delay as i was away. Thanks for that i will give it a go once i get past the config errors. I was wondering if you could help me as i'm still stuck in the same hole. Below are the pictures of me removing the section (so you can see if im removing the wrong thing) and the constant error message that is occurring. So i hope you can help me?

 

Thanks

Hi,

 

Can't say that I've seen those errors before. I'll try and help though.

 

Out of interest, is this on a fresh web server, or do you already have some other sites running on it?

 

That section looks correct that you're removing, as it's what is shown to remove from the file. Below is what mine looks like (Note: I have no idea where the DefaultDocument and httpRedirect sections came from, so it's probably better that you don't put them in)

 

         // ... Snipped to line ~219
         
         
         
       
     
   
[b]        
           
               
               
               
               
               
           
       
       [/b]
 
 
   
     
       

 

The other error, which I'm assuming is happening once you remove the needed section in the web.config file doesn't give too much information. However, doing a bit of searching (https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=iis+80070021) does lead to the following StackOverflow threads:

• iis 7 - IIS - this configuration section cannot be used at this path (configuration locking?) - Stack Overflow
  
• asp.net mvc - HTTP Error 500.19 and error code : 0x80070021 - Stack Overflow
  

 

While I cannot say that it will help (can't recreate this problem myself either) the threads suggest that an IIS feature may not be installed.

 

Hope this helps somehow.

Hi Mate thanks for your help. The configuration now works. It was because asp.net and .net 4.5 extensive tools were not installed.

 

Thanks

in fact one final thing, the webpage doesnt load fully in https (see below). I haven't installed the ssl certificate so could this be the reason?

Thanks

Hi,

 

Glad that I was able to help you with your other problem.

 

Yes, I believe that's what is causing the problem here. That, or some file permissions aren't set correctly. If you load up the developer tools in Chrome (Ctrl + Shift + I) and go to the network tab, then refresh the page, it should show you what the errors are.

 

By the looks of it you already have a wildcard SSL certificate, going by what you have for your VLE address (hope you don't mind me looking), so you should be able to export it from that server and import it onto this server. Then try and start the setup again.

Hello, I will try it with the ssl certificate and let you know

 

Thanks
