Using Setup

Follow these steps to install Web-to-Host on a Web server running one of the following:
  • Windows Server 2003 (SP1 and above)
  • Windows Server 2008
  • Windows Server 2012 R2
  • Windows Server 2016
  • Windows Server
  1. Navigate to the Micro Focus Web-to-Host 6.9.2\bin folder.
  2. Double-click Web-to-HostSetup.exe.
  3. Read the introductory information, then click Next.
  4. Read the Software License Agreement, select the option to accept the terms of the license agreement, then click Next.
  5. Enter the license key for your Web-to-Host product, then click Validate.
  6. Specify the Web root directory (this can be the root publishing directory of your Web server or any subdirectory under the Web root), then click OK.
    • For IIS Web servers, the Web Root Directory defaults to:

      C:\InetPub\wwwroot\

    • For Apache Server, the root publishing directory defaults to:

      C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs

    • For other Web servers, browse to the root publishing directory of the Web server.

    The setup program creates a new w2hlegacy directory under the root publishing directory (or the destination directory) and begins copying files to that directory.

    To install to a subdirectory, select Enable subdirectory support and type the path in the box provided.

    When finished, the Installation Complete screen appears. For an overview of what the correct installation should look like, see Directory structure.

  7. Click Finish to exit the installation.
