WYWO 4.4 (32 bit) Installation

Server Installation:

Please follow the steps below to install WYWO to your server.
NOTE: Installation MUST be initiated from a workstation NOT DIRECTLY ON THE SERVER ITSELF. This applies to shared 'workgroup' PC's as well as NT, Novell, Linux, AS400's etc.

Step 1.

Open Windows Explorer and:

Create a new temporary folder on your local workstation C: drive named WYWOTEMP.

MOVE or copy the downloaded file (wywo95.exe) into the temporary folder you have just created. (WYWO is installed TO the Server from this folder). If you have already downloaded the file to your server you should MOVE it to a workstation to begin installation.

Double click the wywo95.exe file to extract the files into the WYWOTEMP folder.

Run SETUP.EXE to begin the Install Shield Wizard.

Select a shared folder on your server (which you have already created, or create one on the fly)  Example:  w:\apps\wywo

NOTE: If you already have the 16 bit version installed, you should install into the same folder on the server. Both 16 and 32 bit versions reside in the one location. Installing the 32 bit version will NOT over-write the 16 bit version.

Setup will copy the files from the workstation to the server, and create several icons (on the workstation) allowing access to the main program (WYWO32),  the Admin function (WSETUP32), and the Carousel. The Admin and Carousel Icons are ONLY created on the workstation used to install TO the server.

NOTE: Unlike the 16 bit version, you must still perform the workstation install (Step 3) from the server BACK to the PC you are now using after the software is copied to the server.

Step 2.

Adding users to the database:

Run the ADMIN program (WSETUP32.EXE) and add your users.

Do NOT choose the 'Use mail for receiving' selection or the phone book option will be disabled. (Which is one of the most useful features!)

Step 3.

Workstation Installation:

Go to each workstation and open Windows Explorer:

 Run the workstation installer from the folder on the Server.
  (Examplew:\apps\wywo\setup.exe

NOTE: Setup will detect that it is being installed TO a workstation (from the server) and display 'Workstation Setup' at the top of the screen.

Workstation setup will create a new Program Group, create the Icons required for the users to access the software (residing on the server), and attempt to copy CTL3D32.DLL from the appropriate Win95 or WinNT folder on the server.

Open the Program Group and select the WYWO Icon. When WYWO is run for the first time it will ask if it should be added to the Startup Group, and also the name of the default user for this PC. Choose the correct user name and choose the SAVE option.

The program is now installed and initialized for the workstation.

Shared Server / Workstation Instructions:

If the Server also happens to be a workstation (usually Win95 or 98) you must still run the Workstation Installation section on that PC (even though the software is residing on the local C: or D: drive). Proceed to Step 3 but substitute the local C: or D: drive for the network drive letter used elsewhere.
