Problem:

When installing Net Express 4.0 on machine, click on setup to install, gets "invalid initialization file" message.

Resolution:

Use the following steps to correct the problem:

1.  The SETUP.EXE that is in the root directory of the Net Express folder must not be used.

     Instead the command "cd \\setup" must be typed followed by the ENTER key to make the

     Net Express\\setup folder the current directory.

2.  Type "setup.exe /ini=.\\nxsetup.ini /no_subsystem" and press ENTER.

This will start the setup.exe program that is in the Setup subdirectory and tell it which initialization file to use during setup.

In this case it is using the nxsetup.ini file within the Setup subdirectory and specifies the /no_subsystem option.
