Confirming a Successful Installation of the Actuate iServer Components


You should confirm that the Siebel Reports Server and its components were successfully installed before continuing with the postinstallation tasks for the Siebel Reports Server.

To confirm a successful installation of the Actuate iServer and Management Console for Siebel

  1. Make sure that the Process Management Daemon is started.
  2. Open a Web browser and access the Management Console's log in page by typing the URL:

    http://host:port/acadmin/login.jsp

    where:

    host = The name of the machine where the Actuate Management Console is installed.

    port = the port number that the Actuate HTTP Service listens on. The default port number is 8900.

    The Management Console log in page appears.

  3. Using the default user name Administrator with the corresponding password click Log In.

    The Management Console Files and Folders page appears.

  4. Confirm that the Actuate Report Executable (ROX) files are correctly imported into the Reports Server encyclopedia.
    1. Select the Files & Folders tab.
    2. Click the Siebel Reports folder in the Name column.

      For the reports shown, the Type column should reflect Actuate Report Executable as the file type.

    3. While still in the Siebel Reports folder, click the Language folder in the Name column.

      For the reports shown, the Type column should also reflect Actuate Report Executable as the file type.

      The files in this folder correspond to the languages you have installed on the Reports Server. Each language will have a separate folder each containing ROX files.

To confirm a successful installation of the Actuate Active Portal JSP

  1. Confirm that the Actuate HTTP Service 7 used by Active Portal JSP is running.
  2. Open a Web browser and access Active Portal's login page by typing the URL:

    http://host:port/acweb/login.jsp

    Where:

    host = the name of the machine where the Actuate Active Portal is installed.

    port = the port number that the Actuate HTTP Service listens on. The default port number is 8700.

    The Active Portal login page appears.

NOTE:  Because the Single Sign-On feature is implemented during the Reports Server installation, you will not be able to directly access the Active Portal beyond the home page.

Setting Actuate iServer Parameters

The Reports Server administrator should set the Actuate iServer parameter Factory services properties - Number of Requests Before Recycling Processes to 100 to avoid memory leaks.

For instructions on how to modify this Actuate iServer parameter, see the Administering Actuate iServer System manual in the Actuate folder of the Siebel eBusiness Third-Party Bookshelf.

NOTE:  To set parameters for Actuate iServer, open the Actuate Management Console, log in to System Administration, select a Server, and select the Advanced tab.
