Changing interviewing URLs and registration passwords
When you install UNICOM Intelligence Interviewer Server, the installation procedure sets up URLs for interviewing based on the information given at that time. For example, if you are using non-default ports or SSL, the URLs will be modified accordingly. If your site switches to using SSL once UNICOM Intelligence Interviewer Server has been installed, you can make the changes manually and your existing installation should continue to work.
To change the URL for starting interviews
1 Using Windows Explorer, navigate to the C:\InetPub\wwwroot\SPSSMR\ProjectEditor\Settings folder on your website.
2 Using a text editor, open Properties Interviewer Server(UNICOM Intelligence).xml.
3 Locate the entry for the InterviewStartURL property and change the default value so that it starts with https rather than the standard http.
4 Save your change and close the file.
To set the URL for the image cache
1 Navigate to [INSTALL_FOLDER]\IBM\SPSS\DataCollection\<version>\Interviewer Server\Server\mrIWeb and open Web.config.
2 Add the following lines to the file:
Full URL:
<appSettings>
<add key="ImageCacheURL" value="http://WebServerName/SPSSMR/ImageCache/ImageCache.aspx"/>
</appSettings>
Relative URL:
<appSettings>
<add key="ImageCacheURL" value="../ImageCache/ImageCache.aspx"/>
</appSettings>
If this setting is not defined, template files will not be available.
3 Save the changes and close the file.
To configure the RegistrationURL setting in the registry
On each computer running the Interviewing Service:

2 Change the value of the RegistrationURL setting so that it starts with "https" instead of "http":
https://%SERVER%/mrIWeb/mrIWeb.dll?Handler=EngineRegistrationService
If this setting is not defined, add it and give it the value shown above.
3 Save the changes and close regedit.
