MGI Server Admin

MGI's web-based server administration allows you to specify server settings, manage MGI modules, manage domains (and regions of domains), and update the server admin username and password.

To access the server admin page, install MGI and access the "MGIServerAdmin.xxx" page in a web browser from any virtually hosted domain on the server. Replace the ".xxx" suffix with any suffix that is mapped to be processed by MGI2. For example, if you have the ".mgi" extension mapped to be processed by MGI2 you would access "MGIServerAdmin.mgi" or if you have the ".html" extension mapped to be processed by MGI2, you would access "MGIServerAdmin.html".

The server admin page is password-protected. During the installation of MGI, you are prompted to enter a username and password. Use your specified username and password to access the server admin page. If you did not specify a password during installation, the default password is case-sensitive "MGI".

The server admin includes four sections: Server Settings, Module Management, Domain Management, and Security. To view screen shots and instructions for using these sections of the server admin, click any link below.
