Installing the RepConnector Runtime Component

Install and configure the RepConnector runtime component.

  1. Enter or browse for the directory where the selected application server is installed.
  2. (WebLogic Server only) Enter:
    • Domain name – the application server domain name.
    • Server name – the application server name.
    • Hostname – the application server machine name.
    • Port number – the application server port number.
    • User name – the application server user name.
    • Password – the application server user password.
  3. (WebLogic Server only) The installer tries to connect to the application server by sending a ping. If the ping is successful, the installation proceeds; otherwise, you see:
    Ping to the server failed. Verify that the server is
    running, and that you have entered valid information
    To troubleshoot the error:
    • Verify that the server is running and ready to accept connections.
    • If the server is running, verify that the information you entered in step 2 is correct. Contact your system administrator if you cannot verify this information.

      If the server is not running, restart it.

    • If the server is running, the information in the installer wizard is correct, and there is no other apparent reason for the failure, ask your Sybase representative to contact Sybase Technical Support.
  4. In the preview window, verify the size of the installation. If the installation is larger than the space you have available, see your system administrator to reassess the requirements.
    The RepConnector runtime component is installed, then deploys to the application server.
  5. If you have an existing RepConnector installation, the installer asks if you want to overwrite that installation. Click Yes.
  6. The Sybase Software Asset Management (SySAM) License Server window allows you to designate where to store RepConnector licenses. Specify whether the licenses are obtained from a license server (a served license) or not (an unserved license).
    Note: For information about served and unserved licenses, and about choosing the best license server for your environment, see Administering License Servers in the SySAM Users Guide.
    If you select:
    • Yes – you must know the host name of the machine where the license manager is running, and the port number if you have used a non-default port number.
    • No – you are using unserved licenses. Download and install the license file.
  7. Set SySAM e-mail configuration if necessary. Click Next.
  8. Click Next to complete the installation.
