3.0.1 and overwrites your existing Web Application Server
configuration information. A new install backs up old files before
overwriting them.

listener and the default listener (for example SVADMIN.CFG,
WRB.APP, and SVWWW.CFG) will be replaced with the default
versions. Your configuration files will be backed up with .BAK
appended to the filenames. The web page for your default web
listener, INDEX.HTML, will also be backed up.

Existing NT registry values used by the Web Application Server will
be replaced; however, these old registry values will not be backed
up.

Windows NT registry prior to re-installing Oracle Web Application Server.
