SYMPTOMS

installation path for the SNA portion of the installation. However, when you try
to change the installation path for SNA Server, Setup does not permit you to
make this change.

CAUSE
=====

This issue can occur if a previous installaion of Microsoft SNA Server exists on
your computer. If this condition exists, Setup uses the original installation
path to install SNA Server.

use the same path as the existing installation.
