To run setup, follow these steps:
1.
If you are not in the directory already, change to the directory where you
unpacked the file.
2.
Type
./setup
to start the server installation.
If you aren’t logged in as the
root
user (superuser), or if you don’t have
sufficient write permissions, you’ll get one or more error messages.
A welcome screen appears.
3.
Press Enter to continue with the installation.
4.
Choose whether you accept the software license agreement by typing Yes to
accept, or No to decline. If you have not yet read the license agreement, cancel
out of the installation and read the file
LICENSE.txt
that is in the same
directory as the
setup
program.
5.
Choose Typical or Custom.
Press Enter.
6.
Type a server root directory or accept the default (
/usr/netscape/server4
).
This directory is where the server files and directory structure will be installed.
You need to run the server as a user that has write access to this directory, for
example, the directory owner.
7.
Choose all components.
Press Enter.
8.
Choose the iPlanet Web Server subcomponents to install.
If you do not install a subcomponent and later decide you want to use it, you
can run the installer again to install just the missing subcomponent. However,
you cannot uninstall individual subcomponents once they are installed.
By default, all subcomponents are installed.
The subcomponents you can choose to install are described in the following
numbered sections.
