Installation and Migration Notes

This section includes notes about installing and migrating your Sun Java System Web Server. For detailed information about these topics, review the information in the Sun Java System Web Server 7.0 Installation and Migration Guide. For known issues in this release of Web Server, see Known Issues in these release notes.

Installation

You cannot install Web Server 7.0 to a directory that contains an earlier version of Web Server. You can, however, migrate the existing installation after installing Web Server 7.0 to a new directory.

Migration

Web Server 6.0 and 6.1 configurations can be migrated. Direct migration from a Web Server version lower than 6.0 is not supported. Earlier versions such as Web Server 4.0 or later must first be migrated to Web Server 6.1, then to Web Server 7.0. For information about migrating from Web Server 4.0 or later to Web Server 6.1, see the latest Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 Installation and Migration Guide and the Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 Release Notes.

For detailed information on migrating from Web Server 4.1 to Web Server 7.0, and from all versions of Web Server 6.0 to Web Server 7.0, see the Sun Java System Web Server 7.0 Installation and Migration Guide.
