Installing FlowPort
Chapter 1: Installing the FlowPort Server ❖ 1–9
Installing FlowPort
Before you start, make sure you have Administrator
privileges for the server on which you are installing
FlowPort.
If you currently have FlowPort Release 1.0.x installed,
backup your FlowPort directory (which includes the user
data files and system files) before upgrading to the new
version of FlowPort.
To backup your existing FlowPort files, perform the
following:
1
Stop the FlowPort service.
Note: Refer to the “Uninstalling FlowPort” section
to stop the FlowPort server.
2
Make a copy of the entire \FlowPort directory—by
default C:\Xerox\FlowPort.
Rename this directory and save it elsewhere on your
system. It contains all data and system files used by
FlowPort.
3
After your data files are backed up, install FlowPort
Release 2.x. Your old user data files will be upgraded so
that user accounts and forms do not need to be re-created.
