Installing WebSphere Application Server -- Typical Installation option
To install WebSphere Application Server along with the IBM Developer Kit and IBM HTTP
Server, do the following:
- Ensure that you will be installing WebSphere Application Server under a local
Windows user ID that is in the Administrative group and has the advanced user
rights "Act as part of the operating system" and "Log on as a service."
- If IBM HTTP Server or another Web server on your system is running, stop the
Web server.
If you have a level of IBM HTTP Server prior to version 1.3.19 on your system,
you must uninstall it for the WebSphere Application Server installation program
to install IBM HTTP Server 1.3.19.
- If you obtained Version 4.0 from the product Web site, run or unpack the
downloaded executable. Then, run the
setup.exe file. If you have
the product CD, simply run \nt\setup.exe .
You will need 135 MB free in your temp directory (usually on the C drive),
even if you are installing on another drive, because the installation shield
package unpacks to the temp directory. This will kick off an installation
shield package.
- If the Choose Setup Language dialog is displayed, select a language and click OK.
- Click Next to pass the introductory page.
- If WebSphere Application Server is already installed on your system, a dialog
giving you the option to backup and uninstall WebSphere Application Server displays.
You now have three options:
- To backup your files and uninstall WebSphere Application Server, click
Backup and Uninstall and then Next to continue with the installation.
- To install to a different directory, simply click Next and continue
with the installation.
- To migrate your files from a previous release, click Perform Migration.
Complete the migration, then run the WebSphere installation program
again.
If WebSphere Application Server is not already installed on your system,
proceed to step 7.
- On the Installation Options dialog, click Typical Installation and
then Next.
- On the Security Options dialog, fill in the user ID and password to use for the
Web server registration.
Do not use the characters < or > for the user ID or password. After
you fill in the fields, click Next.
- Specify the destination directory for WebSphere Application Server. If IBM HTTP
Server is not installed already, you can also specify the destination directory for
that product. If you are installing from the WebSphere CD and DB2 is not installed
already, you can also specify the destination directory for DB2. Then, click
Next.
- Select a program folder and click Next.
- Click Next again to begin the installation.
- After the installation completes, check the box to view the README file.
For the most recent version of the README or release notes, go to the Library
section of the product Web site at
http://www.ibm.com/software/webservers/appserv/.
- Click Finish and, to complete the installation, restart your computer.
