Intern:Installation

Windows
Prerequisite: The host must have good access to the Internet within Europe with Windows 2000/XP or higher (Windows 9x is no longer supported or working).

Preparation
Create a directory "C:\Program files\PANGAEA" (on german systems "C:\Programme\PANGAEA"). In the windows system settings Localization countries select the tab Numbers. Set the dot (.) as the decimal numbers delimiter. The grouping symbol has to be a space.

ODBC Driver Installation and Configuration
Download and install http://www.pangaea.de/curator/files/Windows/install_pangaea_freetds.exe. The initial installation of the driver must be done with administrator rights (Warning: Windows Vista users must download the file to harddisk and start it by right-click with "Run as Administrator"). After that each user working with 4D Client has to run pangaea_freetds.exe again, to setup the data sources (DSN). The installation program will remove/overwrite all old "AWI" data sources if available. If you had OpenLink as ODBC driver for 4D/PANGAEA installed before, please uninstall it now with "Control-Panel -> Software"!

4D Client Installation
For using the programs PanMap and PanPlot within the 4D Client you have to configure the file "tools.txt" saved in the directory "C:\Program files\PANGAEA\4DClient" (on german systems "C:\Programme\PANGAEA\4DClient").
 * Delete possible older installations of 4D Client.
 * Unpack http://www.pangaea.de/curator/files/Windows/4D_Client.zip and move the directory "4DClient" to "C:\Program files\PANGAEA" (on german systems "C:\Programme\PANGAEA").

Build up the connection
Now start "4DClient.exe" in the directory "4DClient" (it might be a good idea to make an alias, put it on the desktop and name it "PANGAEA"). Go to "Custom". Fill out the form as below and click on OK: Fill in your User Name and Password (the one you used to login to PangaWiki).
 * Database Name: PANGAEA
 * Network Address: 4D.serv.pangaea.de

Mac OS X
In the control panel settings Localization countries (Landeseinstellungen) select the tab Formate. Set the dot (.) as the decimal numbers delimiter. The grouping symbol has to be none.
