  28. <h3><a name="apache">Apache 1.3.4 Support</a></h3>
  29. <p>You need to take some special steps to run the FrontPage Server Extensions with Apache 1.3.4.
  30. FrontPage Server Extensions expect to find all resource directives in the main server
  31. configuration file, usually http.conf. To prevent the server extensions from using any secondary
  32. configuration files (access.conf, srm.conf), add the following lines to http.conf:</p>
  33. </font>
  34. <blockquote>
  35. <font face="Courier New">
  36. ResourceConfig /dev/null&nbsp;<br>
  37. AccessConfig /dev/null</font>
  38. </blockquote>
  39. <font face="Verdana">
  40. <p>If you have some settings stored in secondary configuration files, move them to http.conf.</p>
  41. <p>You must stop and restart the web server for your changes to http.conf to take effect.</p>
  42. <p align="right"><font size="1"><a href="#relnotes">Top of Section</a></font></p>
  43. <h3><a name="upgrading">Upgrading from previous version of FrontPage Server Extensions</a></h3>
  44. <p>Custom entries in frontpage.cnf are not migrated to FrontPage 2000.</p>
  45. <p>When you install FrontPage 2000 Server Extensions, a new frontpage.cnf file is created in the /usr/local/frontpage/version4.0 directory.
  46. Any custom settings stored in a previous-version frontpage.cnf are not used. However, you can copy
  47. your custom settings from the previous-version frontpage.cnf file after you install the FrontPage 2000 Server Extensions.</p>
  48. <p>Do not overwrite the FrontPage 2000 frontpage.cnf file with a frontpage.cnf file from an
  49. earlier version of the FrontPage Server Extensions.</p>
  50. <p align="right"><font size="1"><a href="#relnotes">Top of Section</a></font></p>
  51. <h3><a name="executables">Uploading files into executable folders</a></h3>
  52. <p>After upgrading to FrontPage 2000, FrontPage authors will not be able to upload files into
  53. executable folders. For security reasons, the default setting on FrontPage 2000 webs does not
  54. allow authors to upload executable files into executable folders in a FrontPage web. This
  55. setting protects servers so that authors do not inadvertently upload a program containing a bug
  56. or a virus.</p>
  57. <p>To allow FrontPage authors to upload executables, set the NoExecutableCgiUpload configuration
  58. variable to zero (0). For information about FrontPage Server Extension configuration variables,
  59. see the FrontPage 2000 Server Extensions Resource Kit at <a href="http://officeupdate.microsoft.com/frontpage/wpp/serk/">http://officeupdate.microsoft.com/frontpage/wpp/serk/</a>.</p>
