How to roll from dev to prod without changing site.xml ?
Hi Essentialistas -
I've got two machines: dev and prod.
Both machines host arcgis server.
Both machines host geocortex essentials.
Both have the same mapservices that are used by the site.
Is there a replacement token that represents the https FQDN that I could enter for the map service urls?
That way I could xcopy deploy my site from dev to prod.
Thanks!

Kirk,
This does not answer your question directly, but I have similar setup as yours. What I have been doing is to create a utility tool to copy configs, CSS, workflows and others from the dev server to the production, and as the utility copies it searches for the dev server names and replace them with the production one. This way I can deploy settings from my Dev server to production server quickly. I have been maintaining this utility as a part of a .NET app which also automates other things I need to maintain our sites. I am sure you can do something similar using Python, Powershell or your language of choice. Sorry this is not the answer you are looking for, but it worked for me for a few years.

would be great if geocortex make something like this as part of there software. this is a very common install setup.

I would also like to see something like this built on Fabric or some other deployment tool. 0 -
I know there exists a site migration tool. You should ask Latitude. 0 -
Nico, are you perhaps thinking about the InfoGeographics Navigator application? It has many options for searching/replacing/maintaining multiple Essentials sites.
Here is the website link - http://www.infogeographics.com/products0 -
No.That application cannot modify your configuration. 0
