If you are installing from the Binary Installer (Windows or Linux), the steps are pretty straightforward because the installer uses default values for questions asked during the installation.
Windows
Make sure that you have Admin permissions as part of the login user you install under. (This is particularly important under Vista.) Default installation location is: C:Program Filesjasperserver-<ver>.
Linux
Make sure that you have full write permissions to the directory that you intend to install to. The default installation location is: /home/username/jasperserver-<ver>
Installer will Install What?
The installer will install everything you need to run JasperServer. It will install:
- Tomcat 5.5
- MySQL 5.0
- Java 1.5
- JasperServer Web Application
- Optionally Populate Sample Data (handy for seeing how things work)
- Optionally Install iReport (used for Report Creation)
Installing from the War File Distribution ZIP
The War File Distribution supports multiple databases and application servers. For example, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Tomcat, JBoss, GlassFish.
The filename of the War File Distribution is: jasperserver-<ver>-bin.zip.
First download the War File Dist.
Next, you will unpack the War File Dist zip into a directory location. For instance, /home/user/jasperserver-<ver>-bin (under Linux), or C:jasperserver-<ver>-bin (under Windows). The directory will now be known as the <js-install> directory.
