Technically no, you only need the plugin/cgi, the clients.ini file and the appropriate registry keys. However, WT does not provide a 'client-only' installation option, so you're stuck doing a manual job if having the server installed bothers you. I just install normally and then set my Witango Server service to manual so it doesn't start.
The installer does add a reg key, which is why Witango can't find its folder. I don't know the key off hand, but it's going to be in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\WITHENTERPRISE (something). If you're experienced with regedit, you can try moving/recreating the keys, but I'll warn anyone reading this that changing your registry can cause damage, including corruption of the OS. You might want to see if someone at WT's support dept will email you the exact keys you need.

Does anyone know if you MUST have the 5.5 server installed on a box (Windows 2003 Server) that you simply want to be a web server -- with the directory structure to the clients.ini (and only the clients.ini), pointing to WASers on different boxes? It appears that way...or I'm doing something wrong. I've poked around in the windows registry and environment variables to see if the install sets a path someplace but don't see anything. Thanks. Here's the error: ---------------------------- Client/Plug-in Error Unable to initialize the client's environment. Unable to get the file path for the config file: clients.ini. Check that the witango configure path has been set properly.
