Errors when installing!

Post by dwaters0 »

Existing texis has NOT been replaced.
This version is in /usr/local/www/webinator/bin
You may use it in parallel with another version of
Texis by renaming it to 'texis_w25' and placing it
into your /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin directory.
And changing urls from '.../texis/webinator/...'
to '.../texis_w25/webinator/...'

Creating initial empty database

Go to the database directory and delete the files named SYSLOCKS.* , and see if the problem happens again.

You may be able to use multiple versions of texis on the same machine, but not simultaneously on the same database if the versions are significantly different. The version you have and the version you are installing have incompatible locks. Remove the SYSLOCKS file from the database directory.
