-README for Windows distribution
--------------------------------
-
-Installation:
-
- To install Citadel for Windows, run the citadel-X.XX.exe file. It is
- recommended that you do not change the installation folder. Unlike the
- Unix version, you do NOT need to run Citadel's setup utility before
- starting the server. However, the system operator will be set to the
- first user who creates an account on the server, so you need to login
- immediately.
-
- Setup will fail if the Citadel server is running when you install/upgrade.
- You will need to login to your Citadel server and issue the <.A>ide
- <T>erminate <N>ow command to stop the server before upgrading Citadel.
- This will be fixed in a future release.
-
- At the present time you must restart your computer to start the Citadel
- server. This will be fixed in a future release.
-
-Removal:
-
- To remove Citadel for Windows, go to Start > Control Panel > Add/Remove
- Programs, click Citadel, then click Add/Remove (or Change/Remove). Your
- server data (users, messages, etc.) will NOT be removed. To remove these
- files, delete the C:\Program Files\Citadel\data directory.
-
-Known Issues in Citadel for Windows:
-
-* Calendaring support is not included. Status: TO_BE_FIXED
-
-* Citadel may not run properly if the installation directory is changed from
- C:\Program Files\Citadel. It is strongly recommended that you do not
- change the installation directory. Status: TO_BE_FIXED
-
-* The "weekly" maintenance script does not run. Since it is a Unix script,
- there is no way to run it in Windows. The main effect you will see is that
- no server objects expire. If you wish you can expire them manually. To do
- this, enter the following server commands (using the @ key in the text
- client or the appropriate advanced command in WebCit): Status: TO_BE_FIXED
-
- EXPI users
- EXPI rooms
- EXPI messages
- EXPI visits
- EXPI usetable
-
-* Sessions can be disconnected if you read the citadel-debug.txt using a
- Cygwin program while the server is running. In addition, the file is
- written in Unix text format. To view this file, use a Windows editor
- which understands Unix text files, such as WordPad. (Notepad won't work.)
