Before you install EAServer:
If this is an update of an existing EAServer installation, verify EAServer 5.0 or EAServer 5.1 is installed. If you have an earlier version installed, upgrade to 5.0 before installing 5.2, or install EAServer 5.2 in a separate location.
Read the release bulletins for the latest information on the products that you are installing. Pay close attention to the “Special Installation Instructions” section.
Release bulletins are included on the Getting Started CD that is included with your software. The most recent version is available at EAServer Product Manuals site.
If you are performing any of the following tasks, review the instructions in “Reinstalling or adding components”:
Upgrading from an earlier version
Upgrading your license, for example, from the Developer to the Advanced edition
Reinstalling EAServer 5.2 or adding components or features to your installation
Install operating system patches, if required. Required operating system patches are described in the release bulletin for the product.
Verify that you have enough space to install the software—see “System requirements”.
Make sure you have a TEMP environment variable and a temp directory with at least 170MB. The installation program uses the extra space and directory to write files temporarily during the installation. The installation program frees this space after the installation is complete.
Close any EAServer applications, such as “Jaguar CTS” console server windows, EAServer Manager, and application servers that run as Windows services.
