Yes, of course. You have to configure the according [https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms731399%28v=vs.110%29.aspx bindings] and [https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms731304%28v=vs.110%29.aspx endpoints] as desribed in [https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms733932%28v=vs.110%29.aspx Configuring Services Using Configuration Files].

= Licensing =
 
=== Where is the license file stored? ===
 
C:\Users\{Your Name}\AppData\LocalUBIKLicense.xml
 
 
=== Can I transfer the licensing file to a new computer? ===
 
No. It contains information about your hard- and software and will therefore not work on any other computer than the one it was originally activated
 
 
=== Can I modify the information in the licensing file? ===
 
No. If you modify something in the file it will become invalid
 
 
===What if license activation fails with ''HTTP status 417: Expectation Failed.''? ===
 
If the activation of {{UBIK}} fails with an error ''The request failed with HTTP status 417: Expectation Failed.'' make sure that the '''system.net''' section in your local ''UBIK.Studio.config.xml'' contains a ''servicePointManager'' entry similar as
 
<source lang="xml">
 
<system.net>
 
  <settings>
 
      <servicePointManager expect100Continue="false" />
 
  </settings>
 
</system.net>
 
</source>
 
 
= Infrastructure =
 
===Can I use {{UBIK}} via an Application-Delivery-Solution, e.g. Citrix Reveiver? ===
 
No, that is not possible as such applications are mostly clients accessing a server based application pool. {{UBIK}} is a stand-alone mobile application, which does not communicate via such virtualization client.
 
 
===Which ports are used by default? ===
 
* Communication between the Server and Client uses '''443''' (https) or '''80''' (http). The authentication always requires '''https'''!
 
* Microsoft SQL Server uses '''1433''' by default

===Can I use http and https simultaneously? ===
 
No, that is not possible as the bindings of the web service needs to be configured either for http or https.
 
{{Hint|In the installation package of the web service is a pre-configured ''binding.config'' file for http and https.}}

= Database =
 
===Does {{UBIK}} support other databases than MS SQL? ===
 
No, since {{UBIK}} integrates quite deep into the database in order to be scalable.
 
 
===What SQL Server should I use? What are the differences of the editions? ===
 
Please have a look at [http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc645993%28SQL.110%29.aspx Microsoft SQL Server Library] to check for limitations.
 
 
===Can I use SQL Server Express? ===
 
Basically yes, but be aware of the limitations listed [https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb545450.aspx here].

General

Which component do I need for what use case?

See Set up UBIK® for details about use case dependent installations.

Where can I find some logging information and configure its destination?

Read the article about configure logging to get to know the destinations of log files and how to modify them.

Can I connect to my own web service from within UBIK®?

Yes, of course. You have to configure the according bindings and endpoints as desribed in Configuring Services Using Configuration Files.
