Deletethe directory and restart the install.v If the Encryption Key Manager was interrupted while adding a newkeygroup, stop your Encryption Key Manager server, restore yourkeystore file with the latest backup keystore (this file is located in yourx:\ekm\gui\backupfiles folder). Note that the backup file contains thedate and time stamp as part of the file name (for example,2007_11_19_16_38_31_EKMKeys.jck). The date and time stamp must beremoved once the file is copied into the x:\ekm\gui directory. Restartthe Encryption Key Manager server and add the key group that waspreviously interrupted.4.
