Installing the e-Biz Impact server using the InstallShield wizard

These installation instructions assume you are logged in, with administrative rights, to the system on which you want to install the e-Biz Impact server.

When installing on UNIX, it is best to perform the installation directly on the target machine in the Common Desktop Environment (CDE) single-window mode.

StepsInstalling the e-Biz Impact server

  1. Insert the e-Biz Impact Server CD.

  2. Start the installer.

    Windows If your machine is configured to automatically run from the CD, InstallShield Wizard automatically starts.

    If your machine is not configured to automatically run from the CD:

    1. Select Start | Run.

    2. In the Run dialog box, browse to locate the setup file:

       <CD drive>:\setup.exe
      
    3. Click OK. The Installer window appears.

  3. Solaris If you are using the Solaris automounter and insert the e-Biz Impact Server CD multiple times, the CD might be mounted with a hash mark and number suffix (for example, the first time you mount the CD, it is /cdrom/sybasecd, and the second time, /cdrom/sybasecd#1). The JRE does not run from a path that contains a hash mark, so you must either restart the system prior to installing, or run the following command as “root”:

    rm /vol/dsk/*
    
    1. Mount the CD. For example:

      mount -v cdrfs -o ro /dev/cd0/cdrom
      
    2. Set the IP address.

      export DISPLAY=<IP address:0.0>
      
    3. To change to the /mnt_point directory, enter:

      %cd /mnt_point
      
    4. Start the installer:

      %./setupSolaris.bin
      

      The Installer Welcome window appears.

  4. AIX If you are using IBM AIX:

    1. Mount the CD. For example:

      mount -v cdrfs -o ro /dev/cd0 /cdrom
      
    2. Set the IP address:

      export DISPLAY=<IP address:0.0>
      
    3. To change to the /mnt_point directory, enter:

      %cd /mnt_point
      
    4. Start the installer.

      %./setupAIX
      

      The Installer Welcome window appears.

  5. HP-UX

    1. Mount the CD.

      Some of the files that are being installed might have names longer than 31 characters or have mixed-case file and directory names, so enter the following mount commands:

      nohup pfs_mountd &
      
      nohup pfsd &
      
      pfs_mount <cd device> /mnt_point
      
    2. Set the IP address:

      export DISPLAY=<IP address:0.0>
      
    3. To change to the /mnt_point directory, enter:

      %cd /mnt_point
      
    4. Start the installer:

      %./setupHP11.bin
      
  6. In the Welcome window, click Next.

  7. In the next window, select the appropriate geographic location from the drop-down list. The agreement appears in the appropriate language.

  8. Read the agreement, accept I Agree, then click Next.

  9. In the window where you select the installation directory, specify an installation directory.

    1. To accept the default directory, click Next.

    2. To use a different directory, click Browse, select the directory, and click Next.

      NoteFor optimum performance, install all Sybase products into the same directory.

      The installation summary window displays the products to be installed and the approximate required disk space.

  10. Click Install. The installation summary window displays a progress bar showing the installation’s status.

    NoteIf a temp space error appears, click Cancel. Refer to “Temporary installation directory”. Verify you have enough space, then restart the installation.

  11. Click Finish when the message telling you the installation was successful appears.

  12. On UNIX, run chmod +x on the /bin directory to ensure that all executables have the correct permissions.
