= How to setup a Hive server =
This page gives you instructions about how to setup and run a Hive server.

Certificate and Authentication:
 * Follow DevelopersHowtosDevelopServices
 * Goto Windows Services > start `Distributed Transaction Coordinator` service (needed to use transactions over multiple databases)

Enable net.tcp protocols:
 * Control Panel > Programs & Features > Turn Windows features on or off
 * Expand Microsoft .NET Framework 3.x.x
 * Check the "Windows Communication Foundation Non-HTTP Activation" check box.
 * Open Visual Studio command prompt as administrator and run this command: `%windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.xxxx\ServiceModelReg.exe" -r`

Setup IIS:
 * Open IIS Manager
 * Create an application pool (Hive-3.3, .net 4.x, integrated)
  * Open advanced settings of the application pool and select `NetworkService` as identity (if you don't have your own identities for IIS AppPools)
  * Set `Disable Overlapping Recycle` to true. This avoids that multiple `AppDomains` are created which causes problems in Hive-3.3.
 * Create a new website (or use an existing one)
 * Go to bindings of the website.
  * Add a http-binding with port 9000.
  * Add a net.tcp binding with `9001:*` in the binding information.
 * Create a new application within the website and call it Hive-3.3 and use the already created appPool Hive-3.3
 * Open advanced settings of the application and enter `http, net.tcp` as enabled protocols


Problem:
 * Exception `Could Not Load Type System.ServiceModel.Activation.HttpModule`
  * run `aspnet_regiis.exe -iru`
