Installing with the InstallShield wizard

Follow these steps to install CICS® Universal Client with the InstallShield wizard:
  1. Insert the CD into the drive. If installing from a network drive, connect to the drive.
  2. From the Control Panel, click Add/Remove Programs -> Add New Programs. Click the CD or Floppy button.
  3. Click Next, then type d:\windows\installer.exe, where d: is your CD or network drive. A message box informs you that a Java™ virtual machine is being installed. This is used only by the installation and uninstallation processes; refer to the license for restrictions on the use of this JRE. Be prepared for a pause before the next screen is displayed.
  4. A welcome screen is displayed. Click Next.
  5. If you are upgrading, you see the Upgrade warning screen. Click Next to continue.
  6. The license agreement is displayed. Read the agreements, click the appropriate radio button, and then click Next. You must accept all license agreements that are shown to continue the installation. License files are stored in the <install_path>\license subdirectory, in plain text format. If you run a console-based installation in a DBCS locale, the License agreement is displayed in English and not the local language. Installation using a Graphical User Interface is not affected.
  7. The README file is displayed, giving details of any late changes to the product. Read it and then click Next.
  8. Choose the type of installation required. Select Complete or Custom as appropriate, and then click Next.

    If you chose a complete installation, go to step 12. If you chose a custom installation, continue at step 9.

  9. Specify the directory to which you want to install CICS Universal Client. This option is not available if you are upgrading; in that case, CICS Universal Client is installed in the same location as your existing installation.
  10. A screen showing the features that can be installed is displayed. Select the check box for each feature that you want to install.
  11. Select the appropriate option from the Install Options screen that is displayed:
    Yes, update the PATH environment variable
    You are recommended to leave this option selected, to update the system path. If you clear this box you will have to update the path manually.
  12. (Resume here if you chose a complete installation in step 8.) Information about the choices you have made is displayed on your screen. Read the information and then click Next to start installing. The installation process keeps you informed of progress.
  13. Read the information about configuring the product and click Finish to end the installation process.
