Selecting Installation Options

Specify the installation directory, installation type, Unwired Platform components, and additional installation options.

The installation path you specify below is referred to as SUP_HOME in the rest of these installation instructions.

  1. Specify the absolute path to the installation location, which must be on a local drive on the target host.

    The total length of the path must be 43 characters or less.

    Directory names in the path can contain only:
    • ASCII alphanumeric characters
    • Underscore ( _ ), hyphen ( - ), and period (.) characters (two consecutive period characters are not allowed and none of these characters may appear as the first character in a folder name)
    • No characters between "UnwiredPlatform" and the preceding "\" character.
  2. Select Single Server and click Next.
  3. If a page appears, indicating that the installer detected missing third-party software, click:
    • Next to install the required software.
    • Back to select components to install that do not require the third-party software.
    • Cancel to stop the current installation.
  4. (Optional) Select additional installation options.

If Unwired Platform services do not start automatically, dependent products will encounter problems.
