Installing on an unsupported non-Windows server

To install the product on an unsupported non-Windows server, you must first install the product on a supported platform (this does not need to be a Web or file server), then copy the files manually to the correct location on the non-Windows Web server.

  1. Use FTP to copy the w2hlegacy directory and its contents to the root publishing directory of your Web server. For the location of this directory, consult your Web administrator or your Web server documentation).
    Note: When using FTP to transfer files to an IBM OS/390 Web server, be sure to FTP all files with file extensions .htm, .html, or .txt as text. Transfer all other files as binary. This is necessary because IBM uses the EBCDIC rather than the ASCII character set to store text files.
  2. When you have copied all the files, the installation is complete. For an overview of what the correct installation should look like, see Directory structure.
