This section discusses installing Unwired Accelerator in a network environment. Installation takes five to ten minutes, depending on the speed of your machine.
See “Upgrading from UA 7.0 to 8.0 (Tomcat)” if you are upgrading Unwired
Accelerator software on Tomcat.
Installing Unwired Accelerator
Insert the installation CD. If AutoStart is enabled, the InstallShield wizard starts and the Welcome window displays. This may take a few moments. If AutoStart is disabled, launch the installer from the CD by double-clicking ua80setup.exe. The Welcome screen appears.
Remote installation of UA 8.0 is not supported. You
must install UA 8.0 using the installation CD or by copying all
the installation files to the machine on which you are installing
UA 8.0.
Click Next. The End-User License window displays.
Select the license agreement appropriate for the country or region where you are installing the software. The license displays.
Read the license agreement and select “I agree to the terms of the Sybase license for the installation location specified.” Click Next.
In the Installation Directory window, enter the installation directory where you want to install Unwired Accelerator, for example, C:\Sybase\UA80.
The installation directory is referred to as %SYBASE% in
this guide.
Do not select an installation directory that uses double-byte characters or spaces anywhere in the path name.
Click Next.
The installer checks for available disk space. If there is not enough disk space, the Installer reports the problem and closes. You must free up disk space and start again.
In the next window, enter:
If you are performing an upgrade from UA 7.0, you must
use the same domain name, host name, database port, HTTP port, and
HTTPS port as you configured for your 7.0 installation.
Host Name – by default, the
Installer inserts the machine name listed in the Windows Registry.
Accept the default, or enter the name of the machine on which you
are installing Unwired Accelerator; for example, lab2k
.
Domain Name – by default, the Installer inserts the domain listed in the Windows Registry. Accept the default or enter the domain (and subdomain if used).
Click Next.
The parameters window displays. Enter the values for these parameters or accept the defaults.
HTTP Port for Unwired Accelerator – by
default, the Installer inserts 4040
for
the Unwired Accelerator HTTP port (see Table 2-2). Accept the default or
provide a new value. UA configuration files use 4040 as the default
Unwired Accelerator HTTP port.
If you are using Netscape 7.0.x for
Web browser access, and using HTTPS to protect passwords during
login, use port 80 for the Unwired Accelerator HTTP port.
HTTPS Port for Unwired Accelerator – by
default, the Installer inserts 4443
for
the Unwired Accelerator HTTP port (see Table 2-2). Accept the default or
provide a new value.
Before accepting the default values, keep in mind:
If you are using Netscape 7.0.x for Web browser access, and using HTTPS to protect passwords during login, use port 443 for the Unwired Accelerator HTTPS port.
If you have M-Business Anywhere server installed on the same machine you are installing Tomcat on, there is a conflict with port 4443, so you must use a different port for HTTPS.
This window also shows the ports used by Unwired Accelerator:
Database Port – 4747
Tomcat Administration Port – 8005
MobiLink Database Port – 2439
Click Next. The installer starts.
The Installation Progress window displays.
The installer starts the Adaptive Server Anywhere database.
The Installation Summary window displays and reports success or failure of the installation.
Click Finish.
To start UA, you must restart your machine. In the next window, select from these options:
Yes, restart my computer, or
No, I will restart my computer at a later time
The Unwired Accelerator installation is complete. After restarting your machine, see “Verifying the installation” to verify the network installation works correctly
