Note the following cautions:
Do not install Web Server into a directory with spaces in the name.
Web Server will not start if it is installed into a directory with spaces in the name, for instance, Program Files. You will not receive an error message about this problem during installation, but following installation the server will not start.
Web Server cannot be set up on Red Hat Linux Advanced Server 3.0 without compat-libstdc++.
When you install Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP8 over an existing installation of Sun Java System Web Server, the installer automatically carries out the upgrade.
If you have Sun ONE Web Server 6.1 SP1 installed, point the Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP8 installer to the location of the 6.1 SP1 installation and then upgrade.
If you have the Sun Java Enterprise System 1 installed on your system and you want to upgrade the Sun ONE Web Server 6.1 that is part of Sun Java Enterprise System 1 to Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP8, refer the Sun Java Enterprise System 2004Q2 Installation Guide.
Direct migration from a version of iPlanet TM Web Server earlier than 4.1 to Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP8 is not supported. You must first migrate your legacy server to iPlanet Web Server 4.1, and then to Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP8.
For detailed migration information, see Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP8 Installation and Migration Guide. This guide contains information about migrating from version 4.1 to 6.1 and from version 6.0 to 6.1.
