In order to use GroupWise
®
5.5 Enhancement Pack WebAccess on NetWare
®
6, you must download and install the WebAccess 5.5 EP SP4 Rev 3 patch or
later (FWAEP4C.EXE, FWAEP4D.EXE, etc.) available from Novell Support
Connection
®
Patches and Files (http://support.novell.com/filefinder). The
patch is a prerelease version (Field Test File) of GroupWise 5.5 Enhancement
Pack Support Pack 4. Your system must be running GW 5.5 SP3a before you
can install this patch. Follow the installation instructions provided with the
patch.
This patch resolves the following compatibility issues between GroupWise
5.5 Enhancement Pack WebAccess and NetWare 6:
 If NetWare 6 is installed on a system where GroupWise 5.5 Enhancement
Pack WebAccess has already been installed, the NetWare 6 installation
program changes WebAccess from using the Novell
®
Servlet Gateway to
using the Tomcat Servlet Gateway. Your existing WebAccess software is
not designed to work with Tomcat. Therefore, you must install the
WebAccess patch for compatibility with NetWare 6 and Tomcat.
 If you attempt to install GroupWise 5.5 Enhancement Pack WebAccess
on NetWare 6 without first obtaining the patch, the WebAccess
installation program will encounter problems. It will not be able to
automatically stop your Web server, WebSphere, or Java for you so that
the WebAccess installation can proceed. Although you can work around
these installation problems by manually stopping the listed programs and
then continuing the installation, you will still need to install the patch to
provide WebAccess compatibility with Tomcat.
