ACC1x: "You Must Run SETUP /A Before Running SETUP /N" Error Msg

ID: Q95915


The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Access versions 1.0, 1.1


SYMPTOMS

When you attempt to set up a workstation for Microsoft Access using the SETUP /N command, you receive the following error message:

You must run SETUP /A before running SETUP /N


CAUSE

When the network server was set up, the command SETUP /A was issued from a temporary installation directory on the hard disk, rather than from the installation floppy disks.


RESOLUTION

Run SETUP /A from the installation disks in the floppy disk drive to set up the network server. Then you can run SETUP /N from the workstations.


STATUS

This behavior no longer occurs in Microsoft Access version 2.0.
