action (when available).
1 Installation Notes
This section contains release notes pertaining to installation of Internet Express.
1.1 Administration Utility Support for Selective Updates
Selective updating of a previous installation of Internet Express is supported, that is, you may
choose to update some subsets but not others, and the Administration Utility (IAEADM subset)
can be updated and administration pages of older components will still work (although help
links may not), however if you update any component with administration pages, you must also
update the IAEADM subset or it will not be able to use the newer administration pages.
1.2 Installation with Enhanced (C2) Security Requires Login as Root
If you have Enhanced (C2) Security enabled, you must log in as root before running the
installation. Using the su root command is not sufficient. If you run the installation script
(ix_install), it will check for this, but if you install subsets directly with the setld command,
some subset installations will fail with C2 enabled unless you log in as root.
1.3 The /usr/users Directory Must Be Writeable by root
The ix_install script, as well as the IAEADM (Administration utility), IAEAPCH (Secure Web
Server 1.3), IAEHTTPD (Secure Web Server 2.0), and IAESQD (Squid Proxy Server) subsets will
check for the presence of user accounts named iass and httpd and, if they do not exist, they
will be created with home directories in /usr/users/. If /usr/users is NFS mounted and
not writeable by root, this will fail and cause the installation to fail.
To avoid this problem make sure that /usr/users is writeable by root before beginning the
installation. If this is not practical, you could create the user accounts named iass and httpd
before starting the installation and then there should be no need to write into /usr/users.
1.4 Error Message on TruCluster Server Version 5.1B
On a TruCluster Server running Tru64 UNIX Version 5.1B, during the installation of any subset
that configures its service for failover, you may see error messages similar to this:
Configuring "Samba 2.2.5 File and Print Server for Windows" (IAESMB593) on member2
REBALANCE entry(ies) will be removed from clustercron
Error when calling system(/var/cluster/caa/bin/caa_schedule UNREGISTER samba)
The service should still be correctly configured and these messages can be safely ignored.
2 Updating Internet Express Requires Updating Dependent Components
If you choose to install the Internet Express Secure Web Server (IAEAPCH subset) by installing
the latest version, and if you had installed any of the following dependent subsets from a previous
version of Internet Express, you must also update those dependent subsets. The dependent
subsets are:
IAEADM - Internet Express Administration Utility
IAEAPAD - Secure Web Server Administration Utility
IAEMON - Internet Monitor
IAEIMP - IMP WebMail Email Utility
IAESOAP - Apache SOAP Server
