Important note about supported operating systems
At the time this guide was written, FileMaker, Inc. tested the Web Publishing Engine with the Windows and
Mac OS operating systems listed in this requirements section. The Web Publishing Engine may or may not work
with newer operating system releases. For information on compatibility with newer operating systems, see
www.filemaker.com.
About the license key
To use the Web Publishing Engine, you must purchase and install a FileMaker Server Advanced license key.
Although you can install the Web Publishing Engine software without a license key, FileMaker Server does not
allow the Web Publishing Engine to connect without a FileMaker Server Advanced license key.
Note Only one Web Publishing Engine is allowed with each copy of FileMaker Server.
Tip If you purchased FileMaker Server Advanced, you can enter the license key during FileMaker Server
installation. If you purchased FileMaker Server Option Pack, you must update the license key after FileMaker
Server installation. For information on installing FileMaker Server or updating the FileMaker Server license key,
see the FileMaker Server Administrator’s Guide.
You can find the license key in your volume license agreement or in one of these documents in your product box:
