See the P8 Platform 3.5 Installation guide on http://www.css.filenet.com/docsvs/doccontent.asp?DocID=050110014 for information on requirements, supported service packs, and certification history.

Note – If you are installing the Application Integration component to the server the installation must take place prior to installing the AE 3.5.0 Language Pack, please refer to the ‘Application Integration installation’ section of the readme.

 

Multi-Lingual installs.

The P8 AE 3.5.0 release has a new feature that allows multiple languages to be available to the end user from a single install of AE. This version of the AE 3.5.0 Language Pack installs the following languages:

1.       Arabic

The AE 3.5.0 Language Pack installer will be updated to include extra languages when they become available. Please refer to the International Product Planner on eXtra to see when other languages will become available

For CE 3.5.0 ‘Properties for Workplace’ there is a Language Pack installer for each language (unlike AE 3.5.0 where there is one Language Pack which installs all the available languages). The CE 3.5.0 ‘Properties for Workplace’ Language Pack installs by default into a language folder in the Content Engine directory. If you installed a Spanish and German version of the CE 3.5.0 ‘Properties for WorkPlace’ language pack your directory structure would look like the following.

…\ContentEngine\ES

…\ContentEngine\DE

 

Contents

P8AE-3.5.0 folder -

\ApplicationEngine_Windows\setupwin32_multi.exe – AE 3.5.0 language pack installer for Windows.

\ApplicationEngine_Solaris\setupsolarisSparc_multi.bin – AE 3.5.0 language pack installer for Solaris.

\ApplicationEngine_HPUX\setuphp11x_multi.bin – AE 3.5.0 language pack installer for HPUX.

\ApplicationEngine_Linux\setuphp11x_multi.bin – AE 3.5.0 language pack installer for Linux.

\ContentEngine_PropertiesForWorkplace_Windows\ – CE 3.5.0 language pack installers for the Properties for WorkPlace (Windows only).

\ApplicationIntegration\ – Localized Application Integration components.

Application Integration Installation

 

The Application Integration installation is not a multi-lingual package.

 

This means that there can only be one language of the Application Integration installer present on an Application Server.

 

By default, the Application Integration installer (ApplicationIntegration.exe) present on the Application Engine Server is English.
If it is required to have a non-English version of ApplicationIntegration.exe on the Application Engine Server, download the appropriate language from the ftp site and copy to the following location for Windows or UNIX:

 

Windows

…\FileNet\Workplace\download

 

UNIX

…/Filenet/Workplace/download

 

If you are installing the Application Integration component to the server, the installation must take place prior to installing the AE 3.5.0 Language Pack 

 

An alternative to having a non-English installer on the Application Server would be to have the users download the required language installer directly to their client PC.
