Installing on Windows NT

The following sections describe the installation of the iPlanet Web Server.

Any errors that occur when the server starts are logged in the Event Viewer. Once started,

the server logs errors to the normal error log file.

Please keep the following warnings in mind:

• If you have previous versions of Netscape or iPlanet web servers installed, you must

install your 4.x iPlanet Web Server in a different server root directory.

• If you have beta versions of iPlanet servers installed, uninstall them before installing

the final version.

• Because of DLL conflicts, if you install iPlanet Web Server 6.0 and iPlanet Web Server

4.x on the same machine, uninstall 4.x after you migrate it to iPlanet Web Server 6.0.

When you uninstall iPlanet Web Server 4.x, don’t delete any shared

dll files (when

asked, choose “No to All”). If not, you will have trouble uninstalling iPlanet Web

Server 6.0 later.
