Hi ,
I am trying for upgrading from DS5.1sp4 to DS5.2p4 on windows .
In this process i tried to install 5.2 p4 on the system where 5.1sp4 is running and Installation is failed .
i have no idea what to do ...
my doubt is whether we can install two d.s on same system.
if so please help me out.
any help is appreciated.
Thanks..

You are correct, it is not possible to have both versions of the server installed on Windows at the same time. The server use DLLs that have similar names but have different versions.
You must install DS 5.1 prior to install 5.2patch4.

But you are asking to install 5.1 prior to 5.2sp4 installation?i didnt get it clearly..Cant we install over 5.1 as the cureent 5.2sp5 patch?
ludovicp ,
i installed DS5.1 prior to DS5.2 and failed to install.It is asking for .dlls which are already present in Windows\system32. so please let me known how can i go further.
You cannot install 5.2patchx over 5.1, as there is no upgrade of the database. One must export the data from the 5.1 instance and re-import it in the 5.2 instance.

What is it asking ? Replace DLLs, or missing DLLs ?
The proper procedure (provided you want to preserve the data) is to
1/ take a backup of the DS 5.1 DB and its configurations. (this can allow a faster recovery if you need to reinstall 5.1 software)
2/ Export the data to LDIF
3/ Uninstall 5.1
4/ Install 5.2patch5 (latest available)
5/ Configure a new instance of Directory Server.
6/ Import the data from LDIF.

>>What is it asking ? Replace DLLs, or missing DLLs ?
It is saying missing dlls .
I placed the missing dlls and installed 5.2sp4 and imported the ldif file out of 200k only 20 k was imported and remaining were skipped due schema voilation .
I m working on it...
i appreciate your help..
thanx.
