That advice was upgrading from 2.0.X to 2.0.Y and does not hold if you upgrade from 2.0.X to 2.5.Y.Z You should completely uninstall the CVSNT server that you have currently installed. Then reboot the machine. Now you are prepared to install 2.5.03.2330 or 2260 depending on your preferences (2260 is labeled as "stable" whereas 2330 is a version that has fixed bugs in 2260...). Depending on which installer you choose (the MSI one from March Hare or the InnoSetup one from my or Oliver's sites) you have to be aware that in the future you have to keep using the same installer flavour for later upgrades. Any time you want to switch installer you have to uninstall the server you have and then installl using the other installer. It's no magic involved, just different install engines, but they are incompatible in the install-install-uninstall cycle. Not to worry, the repository data are not destroyed by this cycle nor are the CVSNT server settings, they are all kept in the Registry and are untouched by the install-uninstall-install cycle. >I have also read through >http://web.telia.com/~u86216177/InstallCVSNT25.html and am still >having problems.
