- You may now install the SP to any location you wish, rather than being forced to use C:\opt\shibboleth-sp (though this is still recommended for consistency).
- Most shared components are now installed to Program Files\Shibboleth and ProgramData\Shibboleth. Most files deployers are familiar with remain in the same relative locations, so these changes should be mostly invisible to you.
- The 64-bit install now contains both 32-bit and 64-bit binaries and you can switch architectures after installation (but not run both at the same time). When using a 64-bit OS, you MUST use the 64-bit installer now; the 32-bit installer will refuse to run to ensure this.
- There will no longer be any post-installation ZIP package for upgrades or patches. New installation packages will be used for all patching and upgrades.
Note that as with older releases, if you want the installer to attempt IIS configuration for you when using IIS 7.x, the IIS 6 management compatibility feature must be installed.
