| + | |||
| + | ===== Installation From the PC ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==== Starting the Installation With the Installer Tool ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | The iView installer is designed to automate and thus decrease the time required | ||
| + | to install iView. This section discusses the installer to iView 5.50. | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Some of the messages refer to earlier releases but are otherwise identical to the current process.** | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Step 1: **Download** and unpack the iView installer files into a directory on your pc. | ||
| + | * Step 2: **Run** the executable ivwInstaller.exe by double clicking on the object. | ||
| + | * Step 3: Complete the **prompt** screen show below. Your entries may not match those shown: | ||
| + | |||
| + | {{pub: | ||
| + | |||
| + | * **I5 Server IP**: the IP address of the IBM i5 server on which iView is being installed. | ||
| + | * **HTTP Port**: the tcp port on which the Zend http instance is listening. Zend installs itself to listen by default on port 89, however this is user configurable. | ||
| + | * **Zend Root**: the root of the Zend file system. Do not change unless you have installed the Zend PHP interpreter into a non-standard location. | ||
| + | * **Install Into**: The name of the iView library to install into. Normally this will be IVIEW. | ||
| + | * **Available IVIEWOLD Library Name**: An unused library name to move any existing iView installation into. This is the backup copy. Leave set to IVIEWOLD if this is a new installation. | ||
| + | * **Scripts Location**: This is not changeable in this installation but may be changed manually in the file system and Apache configuration. | ||
| + | |||

| + | Click **Install** to run the installation procedure. | ||

| + | The ftp messages will display in the dialog. When finished, it | ||
| + | will launch the browser for the next step. You may close the Installer | ||
| + | dialog at this time and turn your attention to the browser. | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | ==== Continuing the Installation In The Browser ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Before you work with the browser however, grant adequate authority to the Zend | ||
| + | profile NOBODY to continue by executing the command: | ||
| + | |||
| + | **CHGUSRPRF USRPRF(NOBODY) SPCAUT(*ALLOBJ *JOBCTL)** | ||
| + | |||
| + | {{pub: | ||
| + | |||

| + | Complete the following information: | ||
| + | * **IVIEW database library**: Normally this is IVIEW. | ||
| + | * **I5 Server IP**: The IP address by which your server knows itself. This should match the information previously given. | ||
| + | * **i5 User Profile for DB2/400 Connection**: | ||

| + | The first screen will list actions take to install the scripts, and any messages | ||
| + | generated by the server. Click **Proceed** when ready. | ||

| + | |||
| + | The second screen shows the command executed to restore the greenscreen load program | ||
| + | into QGPL, as well as any system messages. When ready, click **Proceed**. | ||
| + | |||
| + | {{pub: | ||
| + | |||
| + | This screen displays after writing the configuration information you specified into | ||
| + | the scripts configuration files i5_def.php. At this point you may close the | ||
| + | browser and open a greenscreen terminal. | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | ===== Greenscreen Installation Steps ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Make certain you have QGPL in the library list, | ||
| + | are logged on QSECOFR, then use F4 to prompt the command: | ||
| + | |||
| + | **IVWLOAD** | ||
| + | |||
| + | {{pub: | ||
| + | |||
| + | This screen should display with all the defaults correct. | ||
| + | The one decision only should be if you want to have IVWLOAD | ||
| + | update your Zend Apache configuration. The default is Yes, and this | ||
| + | is recommended unless you run a very customized environment. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Press **< | ||
| + | |||

| + | |||
| + | If you have keys to install you may enter or update them here. | ||

| + | When done, press **F3** to exit the registration screen. | ||

| + | **zend_optimizer.enable_loader = 1** | ||
| + | < | ||
| + | to the file. iview550 is the installation directory which will vary in releases. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The installation is complete; please review the additional installation steps below and execute those that apply to your circumstances. | ||
