Installation / Upgrade Procedure

If you are upgrading from an earlier version of Justis 5, your existing settings will be retained and you will not be offered all of the following options.

If you are upgrading from Justis DOS or Justis Windows, it is not necessary to delete your old software. The old software uses different files and different folders, and will still work after Justis 5 has been installed.

1.   Run Setup

The Justis 5.3 software is supplied on a white or silver CD-ROM disc, not on the CD-ROMs that contain databases.

If at any stage you wish to abort the installation, click Cancel. To return to the previous screen, click Back.

• Close any applications that are running.
• Insert the Justis 5.3 software CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive.
• The Setup program should run automatically (see below if it does not).

You will now be presented with the Justis 5 Welcome screen that contains information on installation and copyright notices. After reading these:

• Click Next to proceed with the installation.

If you need to close other applications you have running, click Cancel, close the applications, and run setup again.

You will now be presented with the User Information screen.

2.   Enter User Information

• On the User Information screen, type your name and your company name.
• Click Next.

You will now be presented with the Setup Options screen.

3.   Choose Setup Options

You are offered a choice of Complete Installation or Network Server Installation (Workstation Installation should be greyed out and not selectable).

• Click on Complete Installation (this should already be selected by default).

Justis 5.3 files are installed by default into C:\Program Files\CONTEXT\JUSTIS. It is recommended that you accept the default.

• Click Next to accept the default name of Context.
• To use a different name, either select the name of an existing folder, or type in a new name, and then click Next.

The necessary folders will be created, the necessary files will be copied to the hard disk, and a group will be added to your Start menu. This process can take some time, depending on the speed of your CD-ROM drive. A display keeps you informed of installation progress.

• Click Finish.
• Remove the software CD-ROM disc.

Justis 5.3 is now set up and ready to run.

Running Justis 5.3
