The option The client ID must exist in the current tiBase system is
only selectable if a database from a previous installation already exists on
your computer or if you want to connect to a database server which has
been installed on another computer.
If you activate this option tiBase checks whether the identifier you have
entered exists in the database. If this is true the identifier and all associated
settings will be adopted. With this option a renewed installation of a client
is much easier.
Click on [Next]. If the database ports are not available, an appropriate error
message will appear and the installation will be canceled. In this case, check
your server and firewall settings before installing the program again.
At the end of the installation the file info.txt will be created which contains

all relevant information concerning your current tiBase installation. Save
this file on your hard disk in case of need in future and print it (add to IQ).
Complete the installation with [Finish].
