Platonoff (dip@lab321.ru) Moderator: Christopher B. Wright (wrightc@dtcweb.com) +------------------------------------ That new beta of Netscape Communicator 4.04 doesn't install on Warp 3.0 systems (it supports WarpServer and Warp 4 only) although it actually works fine under Warp 3 (fixpack 29 (syslevel 8.253) or higher is required). A lot of people still run Warp 3, and it's possible to install Communicator on Warp 3 if you modify the Communicator installation script. Find the following lines in the beginning of NS40COMM.PKG: FILE EXITWHEN = INSTALL, EXIT = 'SETVAR INSTALLING=INSTALLING' EXIT DLL = NS40EXIT.DLL FILE EXITWHEN = ALWAYS, EXIT = SETOS2VERSION FILE EXITWHEN = INSTALL, EXIT = NETSCAPEFIXPAK EXIT DLL = EPFIEXTS.DLL Remove (or comment with asterisks) this text and replace it with FILE EXITWHEN = ALWAYS, EXIT = 'SETVAR V4X=TRUE' Then you can run INSTALL.EXE and enjoy Communicator. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To subscribe, unsubscribe, or for more information on WarpCast, visit: http://www.warpcast.com/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------
