Pre-Installation Checklist for the Siebel Server

---

Make sure you perform the following tasks before installing the Siebel Server.

Make sure that you have installed the Siebel Gateway and that it is running. To check the status of this service, navigate to the Services dialog box, through the Windows Control Panel.

NOTE:  You will be unable to complete the Siebel Server installation if the Siebel Gateway is not running.

Shut down all open programs running on the server.
Stop any active Siebel Server Windows 2000 or Siebel Server Windows NT services, except the Siebel Gateway.

CAUTION:  To install Siebel eBusiness Applications, you must have 50-100 MB of disk space on your system drive (usually C:) even if you intend to install Siebel eBusiness Applications into another drive.

The SES installer requires that MFC Runtime components are installed as a prerequisite to installation. For more information regarding the location of MFC Runtime components on your Siebel eBusiness Applications CD-ROMs, consult System Requirements and Supported Platforms on the Siebel Bookshelf. If this software component is missing, the SES installer will exit with a log message stating the installation requirement of MFC components.

Make sure that you have already installed the appropriate version of all third-party software products required before you install the Siebel Server. Otherwise, the Required Software Components prompt appears. For more information, see System Requirements and Supported Platforms.

NOTE:  Siebel Server requires MDAC and MFC installed.
