Important Information

It is recommended to back up the SWA installation folder ("c:\inetpub\wwwroot\SWA") and uninstall all previous versions of SWA. We recommend uninstalling the earlier version of SWA before installation, then upgrading the existing or new database. Upgrade support service can be purchased; please contact support@safran.com for more information. This version of Safran Web Access is an upgrade from version 22; earlier versions of SWA are not upgradeable. This will be overwritten if you already have a site on your server called SWA. SWA uses ports 80 and 82. Please rename your site and change the port number from 80 to e.g., 83, since the Safran Web Access installer does not offer this option. You must also rename the SWA folder in "C:\inetpub\wwwroot". After installation, you can rename your site and rename SWA if necessary. If any other sites are defined on the server using ports 80 or 82 during installation, the SWA site will not be created, but the web files will be copied to the wwwroot folder.
