Inside this section, change

allow users="?"

to

deny users="*"

When upgrading, you will have to change this back to the original value.]]> Wed, 27 Jan 2010 07:51:19 GMT http://www.thycotic.com/forums/messages.aspx?TopicID=246
Is there any way of disabling the web server from automatically going in to the installer when it cannot find the database? I really don't want users to see the installer at any time.

I have a scenario where users connect to 2 web servers via a URL that is linked to an F5 load balancer and these web servers connect to a mirrored SQL instanse spanning 2 sites. In order to test BCP I have to failover from one site to another. In the process of failing over SQL if a user tries to connect to the web server and the database is unavailable then the installer will automatically start. I would prefer just to receive an error message telling the user to refresh the browser or contact support. Administrators could then connect to the specific installer URL if there is a genuine problem.

What do you think?
