InstallShield creates the target installation directory, if it does not already exist, and unloads all selected components into that directory.
At the end of the installation, you can verify the product installation. You may need to perform additional configuration procedures before you can use Database Expert.
To install Database Expert:
Log in to your Windows computer using an account with Windows administrator privileges.
Free system resources and release any Sybase DLLs by closing any open applications or utilities, including currently installed Sybase products or the SySAM Manager.
WARNING! If any Sybase executables or DLLs are loaded into memory, and the installation program tries to overwrite any of the files that are in use, the installation program may generate an error and provide an error log.
Insert the Sybase Database Expert CD in the CD drive.
InstallShield should start automatically. If it does not, select Start | Run, and enter the following, where x: is your drive:
x:\setup.exe
Click OK.
When the license selection displays, select your location from the drop-down list, read the license terms, click “I agree,” then click Next.
Not every country is listed in the drop-down list. If your country is not listed, select the most appropriate location.
InstallShield checks for an existing SYBASE directory structure.
If a %SYBASE% environment variable is not defined, the Install Directory window opens. The directory you enter becomes the %SYBASE% environment variable.
Enter an installation directory, then click Next.
If a %SYBASE% environment variable is defined, its value becomes the installation directory where Database Expert and any other Sybase required components are automatically installed. The Install Directory window does not display.
Click Next.
In the Install Type window, choose the installation type:
Typical – installs the required components. If Open Client™ is installed, the regular language modules are also installed.
Full – installs the required components. If Open Client is installed, all language modules are also installed.
Custom – allows you to select optional components.
If you select a Custom installation, the Products and
Features Selection window displays. Select the products and components
to install.
Components installed in a standard installation appear with the check box selected to the left of the product name.Click to select or unselect subcomponents.
If the installer finds that a component is already installed, it displays an “installed” tag to the right of that component and the installer overwrites the current files.
Make your selections, then click Next.
The Product Selection Summary window displays the components selected for installation. Verify that you selected the correct type of installation and have enough disk space to complete the process.
Click Next to continue.
The Install Progress window shows the installation’s progress. When the installation finishes, click Next.
The Sybase Software Asset Management License Server window opens and displays this prompt:
Will licenses be obtained from the License Server?
Select:
Yes – select “Yes” if you have an existing SySAM network license server installed or you have installed a new license server using “Installing a new license server”.
Enter the host name and the port number of the license server.
No – select “No” if you do not have a SySAM license server installed and are going to use a local license file. A message displays telling you to download the license file.
If you select “Yes” and the license server is not found, or you select “No” and the local license file is not installed on your local machine, this message displays:
Installer can’t check out a license. Do you want to continue with a license?
Click Yes to complete the installation. If you select No, this message displays:
Please remember to download and install the license file after this installation.
Click OK to return to the beginning of step 10.
See “Choosing the appropriate license server configuration” for information on which choice
is appropriate for your installation.
Click Finish.
The shortcut for Database Expert is placed in the Sybase
directory with all other previously installed Sybase products. If
this directory does not exist, it is automatically created.
If you encounter any errors, refer to “Troubleshooting”.
