Installing ECDA in GUI Mode

The installer creates the target directory and installs the selected components into that directory.

Prerequisites

Verify that the drive on which you install the ECDA has enough disk space for the components being installed, and at least 10MB of extra disk space for the installation program. The program frees this extra space after the installation is complete.

Task

Insert the ECDA installation media in the appropriate drive, or download and extract the ECDA installation media from the Sybase Product Download Center (SPDC) or the SAP Service Marketplace (SMP).
Start the installer.
If automount is not available on your machine, follow local procedures for mounting the CD.
For IBM AIX, HP-UX, HP-UX Itanium, Linux, and Solaris platforms, enter:
```
./setup
```
On the Welcome screen, click Next.
You may see this error message:
```
Error writing file = There may not be enough
temporary disk space. Try using -is:tempdir to use a
temporary directory on a partition with more disk
space
```
If so, set the temporary directory to another directory that has more disk space. In the command prompt, enter:
```
./setup -is:tempdir directory_name
```
where directory_name is the name of the temporary directory to which the installation program writes its temporary files.
Select the geographic location, agree to the license agreement, then click Next.
