Delete patients via web interface?

    First of all I want to thank you for your great software! I just installed Conquest and it took me like 15 minutes from download until I was up and running. I think my mother could have done it. I have previously used DCM4CHEE and it takes hours to set it up and the interface is terrible. So hats off! I do however have a few questions:


    1. I've got the web interface running (copied the files from inside 'webserver' to the cgi-bin-folder of a previously installed WAMP). It seems to work and I can list the patients. But is there any way for the user of the web interface to delete patients? This would be a very useful feature imho and something DCM4CHEE can do. I have set WebReadonly = 0.


    2. I also seemed to have misconfigured the web server somehow. The Conquest-logo does not show up, even though I've placed the .jpg-file in the www-directory of my WAMP. An interesting note here is that when I first, by mistake, copied the DICOM.ini-file from the "root" directory (i.e. instead of from the webserver-directory) to the cgi-bin-directory, the web server seemed to work fine and logo did show up! Very weird.


    3. Not really related to the web server, but thought I'd ask anyway. If I want to have two different PACS-servers running at once on the same machine (i.e. different AE title and port and different patient database). Do I simply copy the data to a new folder and "re-run" the installation? Or will this not work?


    Thanks again for your help.

    Hi,


    1) if you set webreadonly to 0 (change 1 to 0 and delete the # before the line), you can delete studies and series from the web interface; patient deleting is not implemented.


    2) The logo is in <IMG SRC='http://127.0.0.1/conquest.jpg>, where 'http://127.0.0.1/' comes fom the WebCodeBase parameter. This is where you can also put the viewer OCX to download if you use that.


    3) You can install as many servers as you like. If you keep the first installed running, 'installing' another copy of conquest will automatically assign a different port number. To 'install' a new copy of conquest at any time, just delete file dicom.ini. In particular with SqLite this is very easy, as the database is stored with the data. If you use a 'real' sql server, you need to configure different database names which may a bit more cumbersome. To move or copy a working dicom server (with sqlite), just copy all the files and edit the two paths stored in dicom.ini: SQLServer and MAGDevice0 and make sure you have a different port number.


    Good luck!
