Installing the LearningSpace Files onto a Server

This chapter contains information on how to prepare your environment for LearningSpace and how to install LearningSpace files onto a server.

If you are upgrading from Release 2.0 to Release 2.5

If you are upgrading to LearningSpace Release 2.5, delete the Release 2.0 template files before installing the Release 2.5 templates on the server hard drive. The files you should delete from the server are:

￿schedule.ntf

￿mcenter.ntf

￿assess.ntf

￿croom.ntf

￿profiles.ntf

Also, make backup copies of any customization databases you may have altered. Later, you can update the new customization databases with the changes you made.

For more information about upgrading Release 2.0 courses to Release 2.5, see Chapter 4.

Upgrading from LearningSpace Release 1.0: To upgrade from LearningSpace Release 1.0 to Release 2.5, you will have to upgrade to Release 2.0, then run the procedure for upgrading to Release 2.5. For information about upgrading from Release 1.0 to Release 2.0, call LearningSpace Support.

Installing files on the server

You install the LearningSpace files from a Notes server. The procedures in this section work for Notes servers running OS/2 or Windows NT.

Note for users installing from a UNIX Notes client: Before you can install the LearningSpace files using a UNIX Notes client, you must perform the procedure described in a text file called install.txt. The text file is included on your LearningSpace CD. After performing the procedure, continue with the steps in this chapter.
