   Warning

   In Aptify 5.5.1 and the GA release of Aptify Web, disabling ASP.NET Impersonation authentication will cause problems with logging in to Aptify Web. We recommend setting up a separate Services site for Web User authentication in this case. It should use the same Aptify database as everything else. In Aptify 5.5.2, Aptify Web authentication should behave correctly with only Anonymous authentication enabled.

    

9. Restart the site containing the Aptify Services API.
