GETTING STARTED

For information about the server and paths to developer and server admin 
documentation, see the file Getting_Started.htm (located at the top level 
of your installation directory).

KNOWN ISSUES 

--If you plan to call the Java, JavaScript, or URL APIs on an https server, 
  the client machine calling the APIs must first import the SSL certificate 
  for that server machine. For more information about importing the 
 certificate, see http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/ssl-howto.html on the 
  Apache Tomcat Web site (external link).

--The Java AdministrationService API method interrupt() always returns false.

--Running Uninstall deletes SplusServer.xml. Before you uninstall, reinstall, 
  or update the S-PLUS Enterprise Server, make a back up copy of this file to 
  preserve your settings.

--When you start or re-start Tomcat, a CachemManager warning will appear consistently 
  and multiple times in the SplusServer.log.  This warning causes no actual problems 
  with starting Tomcat.

--Running Uninstall does not remove the WebApp folder.

UNINSTALLING THE SERVER

BEFORE YOU UNINSTALL, REINSTALL, OR UPDATE THE S-PLUS ENTERPRISE SERVER
make a back up copy of SplusServer.xml to preserve your settings.

Note that running Uninstall does not remove the WebApp folder.

Double-click Uninstall_SplusServer.exe in your SPSERVERHOME/Uninstall_SplusServer folder, 
where SPSERVERHOME is your installation directory. Please contact Technical Support for 
instructions.
