Installation

For most users, installation will just mean starting the setup program from the download
directory, answer the questions asked by the setup procedure, and get the program up and
running. However the combinations of operating systems, network installations and protection
systems may make the installation procedure more complex. This chapter was written to be a
technical reference and cover all combinations.

A. Definitions

Protections
Local protection: A local protection can be either a Flexlm license or a hard key
connected to either the parallel or USB port of the user computer. In case of Flexlm
license, the license is dedicated to one machine and cannot be installed on another
computer. Concerning the hard key, the KAPPA software can only be executed on the
computer where the key is plugged but the key can be plugged on any machine. A driver
needs to be installed in order to check the key.

WARNING: You need to have the administrator privileges to install these drivers. 95% of
the reported failures to install these drivers come from insufficient privileges.
WARNING: It is possible to connect a printer to the parallel key but some printers will
make a short circuit of the parallel port when turned off. If the software does not find the
key, turn the printer on or disconnect it.

Network protection means that, at run time, the program checks the presence and the
validity of a license over the network. Network protection is designed to provide several
simultaneous users. The licenses are managed by a license server, which is not necessarily
installed on the network file server. The protection is managed by software through a
license file located on the machine running the licenses server.

Installations

We support Windows XP PRO SP2/2003/Vista/Windows 7/Windows Server 2008, 32 and 64-bit
platforms.

If you encounter problems when launching the installation package, please refer to the
Troubleshooting installation guidelines, section I.

A Local installation means that the software is physically stored and executed from the
user computer hard disk. The local installation is described in Section B. Typically the
protection used will be local, but may also be a network protection.

A Server installation means that the software is physically stored and executed from the
network server hard disk. The installation program creates the installation directory and
copies the program in this directory. It also copies the elements in order to perform the
Client installation. Such installation requires the READ and WRITE privileges in the target
directory. The Server installation is complemented by one or several Client installations.
The server installation is described in Section D.

A Client installation is made after the server installation. You have to call the setup
program created in the server installation directory. The installation program requires a
local installation directory where the examples will be copied, and creates the Windows
group and Windows program items. The default working directory is the local installation
directory. For execution, the READ privilege on the server directory is required. The client
installation is described in Section B.

Typically a Server / Client(s) installation is protected by a network protection, but not
necessarily. You may wish to make a server installation to ensure the coherence of the
software version, then move individual keys around for execution. The advantage of such a
solution is that the program can also be sent to the field on a local installation. Another handy
solution is to combine network protection and individual protection. At execution time the
software first checks that a local protection is present, then looks for a possible network
protection. So, if the most frequent user is assigned a local protection key, such solution
combines centralization and the possibility to send the individual copy to the field.

Major release and intermediate upgrade
As a KAPPA user, you will be dealing with two distinct types of product distributions: major
releases and intermediate upgrades. A major release corresponds to a significant amount of
improvements for a particular software, both in terms of technical content and software.
Examples of major releases are Saphir v4.12, and Emeraude v2.60. Each release in turn has
its own evolution, mirrored by a number of intermediate upgrades for minor additions and bug
fixes. Upgrades are identified by two-digit numbers, appended on the release name, e.g. Ecrin
v4.12.03 or Emeraude v2.60.03. Installing the first version of a given release is like installing a
brand new product. Installing an upgrade of an already installed release will upgrade the
installation and replace the previous contents.

B. Local / Client installation procedure

The local or client installations proceed in a similar fashion, except that the latter one must be
preceded by the server installation, see Section D. For a local installation, the SETUP.EXE
program is run. For a network client installation, the CLIENT_SETUP.EXE program is run from
the Server installation folder. Note that all the files included in the installation zip file need to
be extracted and copied on your local drive before executing the setup.exe.

The installation program starts. To run the software with a protection hard key, drivers have to
be installed and they are normally installed automatically. In some instances, you may have to
install the driver manually, see Sections E and F for USB keys and Section G for parallel keys.


A welcome screen and a license agreement screen are displayed. Click on Next to continue.

The next dialog requests the type of protection: select your option.

Note that if you are running a Windows 64-bit system, the 'parallel port' option will
be disabled as we do not support 64-bit systems for parallel keys.

Furthermore, do not connect your hard key unless the software installation is complete.

Protection type

If the FlexLM network protection has been chosen, the dialog below is displayed and the user is
asked for the host name of the FlexLM license workstation in the following format:
@hostname, or port@hostname. If unknown at the time of the installation, the server may
be specified later under the Licenses tab of the Emeraude Settings - Application dialog.

FlexLM Server Name

With a local installation, the next dialog (below left) requires the name of the installation
directory. The default target is C:\Program Files\KAPPA\EmrZZZ, where ZZZ is the release
identifier, e.g. 260 for v2.60.


Installation directory

Components selection

For both local and client installations the next dialog requires the name of the Examples
directory (by default a subdirectory of the installation directory) where the example files will be
automatically placed.

The next dialog (above right) requires the list of components to install (Emeraude, Examples
and Documentation). The Emeraude installation contains all the tutorials, and they are
automatically copied into a Documentation sub-directory of your Emeraude installation.
For client installation, only the Examples and the Documentation checkboxes are enabled
as Emeraude resides on the server.

The following dialog (below left) allows to specify your Program Folder.

Information for the Windows manager

Installation option summary

The setup program will also check that enough space is available on the installation disk and
then will request information on the program folder to be created in the Windows manager. A
shortcut can also be created on the desktop.

The next dialog (above right) summarizes the installation options. It is possible to correct
these options by using the Back button of the installation dialogs.

After user confirmation the installation is executed. Necessary files are copied and
decompressed.

Setup complete

If you selected a hard key and the key driver installation has not been successful, a warning
message saying No valid license was found will be displayed when launching Emeraude.
It will then be necessary to install the key driver manually, see Sections E and F for USB keys
and Section G for parallel keys.

In the case of network protection, it is necessary to start a network license server. The license
server is provided in a separate toolkit and can be downloaded from the KAPPA web site.

C. Silent mode installation

The Emeraude v2.60 installation package enables the Silent mode facility.

A standard (non-silent) installation necessarily needs the input from the user to respond to the
InstallShield Wizard. However, a silent installation does not prompt the end user for input.
Instead, a silent installation will get the user input from a response file (setup.iss).

To create a response file, run setup.exe with the /r argument, which runs the installation
normally, and additionally creates the response file used by a silent installation. By default, the
response file is called Setup.iss, and is created in the Windows or WinNT directory. To specify a
different name or location for the response file, use the /f1 argument to Setup.exe, as
illustrated below:

c:\Silent Mode Installation>setup.exe /r /f1"c:\Silent Mode Installation\setup.iss"

Setup.exe command-line parameters

/r : Record mode
To run the Emeraude installation program in silent mode, you must first run Setup.exe with
the /r switch to generate a response file, which stores information about the data entered and
options selected by the user at run time.

/s : Silent mode
The command Setup.exe /s runs the installation in silent mode, by default based on the
responses contained in a response file called Setup.iss in the same directory (response files are
created by running Setup.exe with the /r option). To specify an alternative file name or
location of the response file, use the /f1 option.

/f1 : Specify alternative response file name
Using the /f1 argument allows to specify where the response file is (or where it should be
created) and what its name is, as in Setup.exe /s /f1"C:\Temp\Setup.iss". The /f1 switch
is available both when creating a response file (with the /r option) and when using a response
file (with the /s option).

/f2 : Specify alternative log file name
When running the Emeraude installation in silent mode (using the /s argument), the log file
Setup.log is by default created in the same directory and with the same name (except for the
extension) as the response file. The /f2 argument allows to specify an alternative log file
location and file name, as in Setup.exe /s /f2"C:\Setup.log".

D. Server installation procedure

You need to execute the NETWORK_SETUP.EXE program.

Make sure you have the READ and WRITE privilege in the installation directories (for execution
only, the READ privilege will be required). If this is not the case, the installation procedure will
issue an error message when attempting to create the installation directory, and will request
another installation directory.

With a server installation, the default directory is W:\KAPPA\EmrZZZ where W is the first
available drive starting from F.

Server installation

The setup program copies all the necessary files for the client installation to the selected
target.

The network installation is over. The next step is to execute the client installation on each
machine where the program needs to be installed, see Section B above.

The setup needs to know the directory where the executed programs are installed on the
network. These programs should reside on the network installation directory; i.e. the parent
directory where the setup program is stored. If it is not the case, the setup program will
request in a specific dialog the directory where the programs can be found.

E. Installation of the Actikey USB key driver

If you have checked the USB protection at installation time or if you already have a previous
USB driver installed on your computer, the driver will be automatically installed or updated.

You may have to execute a manual installation only if the automatic installation failed, or if
you had not specified the USB protection when you installed Emeraude. An Actikey Driver
USB directory is automatically created during the Emeraude installation under C:\Program
Files\KAPPA\Protection.

Note: the USB driver (version 1.1.1.6) included in the Emeraude v2.60 installation
package is compliant with 64-bit systems.

Furthermore, do not connect your USB key unless the driver installation is complete.
