Compaq PATHWORKS for OpenVMS
Server Installation and Configuration Guide


Previous Contents Index

In Example 2-4, Sample Installation Procedure---Part 4, the script prompts for a default UIC group number. It does so only if you are installing the complete PATHWORKS Advanced Server product. If you do not want to associate the newly created OpenVMS accounts PWRK$DEFAULT and PWRK$GUEST with the default user identification code (UIC) group number, specify another three-digit UIC group number.

At this point, all questions have been answered and the installation process continues. The installation procedure then reminds the installer to continue with the configuration process by invoking the PWRK$CONFIG.COM configuration procedure.

2.2.4 What To Do After the Installation Completes

If you have installed the external authentication images only, you can proceed to enable external authentication, as explained in Section 5.6, Setting Up External Authentication. For other installations, do the following after the installation completes:

  1. If you had a previous version of the Advanced Server running on your system, reboot your system before configuring the newly installed Advanced Server. See the discussion in the explanatory text following Example 2-3, Sample Installation Procedure---Part 3.
  2. Proceed to Chapter 3 to configure the PATHWORKS Advanced Server.

Appendix F,PATHWORKS Advanced Server Files and On-Disk Structure, lists and describes files created by the installation procedure.

2.3 Troubleshooting Installation Problems

The following sections describe some problems you can encounter if you install the PATHWORKS Advanced Server in an environment that is not appropriate.

2.3.1 Installing PATHWORKS Advanced Server on a System Running Another Advanced Server Image

If you attempt to install the PATHWORKS Advanced Server on a system, or anywhere in a cluster, on which a PATHWORKS for OpenVMS or Advanced Server for OpenVMS image is running, the installation procedure displays a message such as the following:


******************************************************************* 
* You must shut down the Advanced Servers on all nodes in the     * 
* cluster before you continue installing PATHWORKS V6 for OpenVMS.* 
******************************************************************* 
 
If you do not shut down the servers, the installation will 
terminate. 

Shut down the servers on all nodes in the cluster before continuing your installation.

2.3.2 Installing the PATHWORKS Advanced Server on a System with the NetWare Server

The PATHWORKS Advanced Server cannot be installed on a system where the NetWare server is installed. If you attempt to install the PATHWORKS Advanced Server on a system where the NetWare server is installed, the installation procedure optionally invokes the NetWare server software removal procedure (SYS$STARTUP:PWVN$DEINSTAL.COM).

When the installation procedure detects the presence of the NetWare server, it displays the following message and question:


%PWRKV60-E-OLDVERPWNV, PATHWORKS V6.0-nnnx for OpenVMS (NetWare) 
was previously installed.  This product is no longer supported. 
To install the PATHWORKS V6.1 for OpenVMS product, the NetWare 
product must be deinstalled. 
 
* Will you allow this installation procedure to deinstall 
* the NetWare product [NO]? 

To remove the NetWare server software, enter YES.

To terminate the installation procedure without removing the NetWare server software, enter NO, or press [Return].

You can remove the NetWare server manually using the procedure in Section 7.2, Removing the PATHWORKS NetWare Server. Then start the VMSINSTAL procedure again after the NetWare server has been removed.

2.3.3 Installing PATHWORKS Advanced Server on a System with PATHWORKS (LAN Manager)

You can upgrade PATHWORKS V5 for OpenVMS (Advanced Server) to PATHWORKS V6 for OpenVMS (Advanced Server). If the system has PATHWORKS (LAN Manager) installed, you can use the Upgrade utility, as described in the Compaq PATHWORKS for OpenVMS (Advanced Server) Server Migration Guide, to upgrade server information before you configure and start the PATHWORKS Advanced Server.

2.3.4 Installing the Standalone License Server on a System Where the PATHWORKS Advanced Server Has Been Installed

If you install the standalone License Server on a system where the PATHWORKS Advanced Server has been installed, the installation procedure displays the following message:


The PATHWORKS Advanced Server was previously installed and you 
have selected to install the License Server only.  Because the 
PATHWORKS Advanced Server includes the License Server, the 
complete PATHWORKS Advanced Server must be installed. 

The installation procedure will choose to install the PATHWORKS Advanced Server. You have the option of continuing with this installation, or you can terminate the installation procedure by pressing [Ctrl/Y]. To install the standalone License Server on this system, you must first remove the PATHWORKS Advanced Server software using the PWRK$DEINSTAL.COM command procedure, as described in Chapter 7, Removing PATHWORKS Advanced Server Software. Then start the VMSINSTAL procedure again.

For a sample installation and configuration script for the standalone license server, see Appendix C, Sample Standalone License Server Installation and Configuration.

2.3.5 Installing the External Authentication Software

You cannot install the external authentication software only, if you have previously installed the PATHWORKS Advanced Server. The installation procedure displays the following message if you try to install the external authentication images under these circumstances:


The PATHWORKS Advanced Server was previously installed, and you 
have selected 
to install the external authentication images only. Because the 
PATHWORKS Advanced Server includes the external authentication images, 
the 
complete PATHWORKS Advanced Server must also be installed. 

You must remove the PATHWORKS Advanced Server software to be able to select this option. To remove PATHWORKS Advanced Server software, run the PWRK$DEINSTAL procedure, as described in Chapter 7, Removing PATHWORKS Advanced Server Software.

For a sample installation script for the external authentication images, see Appendix E, Sample External Authentication Installation.
