|
|---|
| 46 |
|
|---|
| 47 | <p>You need to take some special steps to run the FrontPage Server Extensions with Apache 1.3.4.
|
|---|
| 48 | FrontPage Server Extensions expect to find all resource directives in the main server
|
|---|
| 49 | configuration file, usually http.conf. To prevent the server extensions from using any secondary
|
|---|
| 50 | configuration files (access.conf, srm.conf), add the following lines to http.conf:</p>
|
|---|
| 51 |
|
|---|
| 52 |
|
|---|
| 53 | </font>
|
|---|
| 54 | <blockquote>
|
|---|
| 55 | <font face="Courier New">
|
|---|
| 56 | ResourceConfig /dev/null <br>
|
|---|
| 57 | AccessConfig /dev/null</font>
|
|---|
| 58 | </blockquote>
|
|---|
| 59 | <font face="Verdana">
|
|---|
| 60 |
|
|---|
| 61 |
|
|---|
| 62 | <p>If you have some settings stored in secondary configuration files, move them to http.conf.</p>
|
|---|
| 63 |
|
|---|
| 64 | <p>You must stop and restart the web server for your changes to http.conf to take effect.</p>
|

| 72 | <h3><a name="upgrading">Upgrading from previous version of FrontPage Server Extensions</a></h3>
|
|---|
| 73 |
|
|---|
| 74 | <p>Custom entries in frontpage.cnf are not migrated to FrontPage 2000.</p>
|
|---|
| 75 |
|
|---|
| 76 | <p>When you install FrontPage 2000 Server Extensions, a new frontpage.cnf file is created in the /usr/local/frontpage/version4.0 directory.
|
|---|
| 77 | Any custom settings stored in a previous-version frontpage.cnf are not used. However, you can copy
|
|---|
| 78 | your custom settings from the previous-version frontpage.cnf file after you install the FrontPage 2000 Server Extensions.</p>
|
|---|
| 79 |
|
|---|
| 80 | <p>Do not overwrite the FrontPage 2000 frontpage.cnf file with a frontpage.cnf file from an
|
|---|
| 81 | earlier version of the FrontPage Server Extensions.</p>

|
|---|
| 90 |
|
|---|
| 91 |
|
|---|
| 92 | <p>After upgrading to FrontPage 2000, FrontPage authors will not be able to upload files into
|
|---|
| 93 | executable folders. For security reasons, the default setting on FrontPage 2000 webs does not
|
|---|
| 94 | allow authors to upload executable files into executable folders in a FrontPage web. This
|
|---|
| 95 | setting protects servers so that authors do not inadvertently upload a program containing a bug
|
|---|
| 96 | or a virus.</p>
|
|---|
| 97 |
|
|---|
| 98 | <p>To allow FrontPage authors to upload executables, set the NoExecutableCgiUpload configuration
|
|---|
| 99 | variable to zero (0). For information about FrontPage Server Extension configuration variables,
|
|---|
| 100 | see the FrontPage 2000 Server Extensions Resource Kit at <a href="http://officeupdate.microsoft.com/frontpage/wpp/serk/">http://officeupdate.microsoft.com/frontpage/wpp/serk/</a>.</p>
