The Manage Application Directories dialog box opens.
The Manage Application Directories - Create Directory dialog box opens.
Note that the application name cannot contain spaces. If the name contains spaces, each section is understood to be a separate application.
The new application will appear in the Manage Application Directories dialog box.
Note: The application must still be added to the Application Path.
The Manage Application Directories dialog box opens.
A confirmation dialog box opens.
You can create a new mapping to an application anywhere in the file system and include it in the server path. Application mappings can be added and deleted on a per profile basis.
