With a new installation of Netscape Enterprise Web Server for NetWare, you may need to migrate exisiting Web sites to the Enterprise Server. These sites may contain HTML pages, a site map, or a Perl script that responds to a form, just to name a few examples of what can be involved in such a migration.
To transfer the existing Web site to your new Web Server, perform the following steps:
First, back up the original Web Server's directory files.
Rename the .SSI files extensions to .SHTML.
Move the HTML documents to the DOCS directory on the new Web Server.
Move the CGI and Perl scripts to the DOCS/LCGI directory.
Move the plug-in files to the PLUGINS directory.
Move any user database files to the USERDB directory.
Open Windows Explorer and select the files that are located in the Documents folder. Copy those files to the SYS:NOVONYX/SUITESPOT/DOCS directory on your Web Server.
Select the Perl files from your existing Web sites and copy those files to the SYS:NOVONYX/ SUITESPOT/DOCS/LCGI/PERL directory on the Web Server.
