Installing Avalanche Site Edition

This section provides instructions for the installation process for Avalanche Site Edition (SE) with the included PostgreSQL database. The SE installer also gives you the option to install the Avalanche Remote Control 4.1 server.

If you are currently running a version of Avalanche, see the migration documents or release notes located on the Wavelink Web site to ensure the latest version of Avalanche installs properly and no data is lost during the installation. If you have a previous version of the Remote Control server, uninstall Remote Control before using the SE installer to install Remote Control 4.1.

If there is a Guest account on the computer where you plan to install, it should be disabled before installing Avalanche.
