Error "Meridian Web Access will not be installed" During Installation

Some users might get the following error message when installing Meridian:

“WWW Publishing Service is not installed.

Meridian Web Access will not be installed.”

This issue occurs if the inetpub folder is created in a different drive (other than the default C:\ drive) during the Meridian Enterprise Server installation.

To prevent this issue:

• Before the Meridian installation, change the PathWWWRoot value for the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\InetStp registry key to the path to the wwwroot on the chosen drive.

  During the installation, the setup path will show the correct destination folder in the Start Copying Files dialog. All PowerWeb files will go to the chosen drive during the installation.
