From bd30a059ed42199fcd425b78b9343402edc0482b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: dc Date: Tue, 22 Sep 2026 16:28:10 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] docs(sas9): unzip the frontend archive into its own folder frontend.zip now holds the frontend files at their root (dc/dc #147, released in v7.14.2), so unzipping no longer produces a client/dist folder to navigate into. Step 2 now says to create the app folder and unzip the archive into it, naming the file that should end up there. Step 3's URL example matches the folder the reader created, and the intro line drops "to the root of" - it contradicted the subfolder instruction directly below it. --- docs/dci-deploysas9.md | 6 +++--- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/docs/dci-deploysas9.md b/docs/dci-deploysas9.md index 765b9ad..d550797 100644 --- a/docs/dci-deploysas9.md +++ b/docs/dci-deploysas9.md @@ -31,12 +31,12 @@ If you don't have internet access from SAS, download `sas9.sas` from [here](http #### 2 - Deploy the Frontend -The Data Controller frontend comes pre-built, and ready to deploy to the root of the SAS Web Server (mid-tier). +The Data Controller frontend comes pre-built, and ready to deploy to the SAS Web Server (mid-tier).
