Installing Siebel Server for SSSE

The first part of the SSSE installation process is to install Siebel Enterprise Server software on the computers that will host the SSSE components and your Siebel application (such as Siebel Sales).

This task is a step in Roadmap for Installing SSSE.

CAUTION:  Never install Microsoft Outlook on a computer that will run the Siebel DCOM Exchange Connector application. Microsoft Outlook overwrites a critical Microsoft Exchange library used by the DCOM Exchange Connector with a less functional version. Microsoft Outlook can be installed on computers that run the Web service Exchange Connector.

To install Siebel Server for SSSE

1. Install the Siebel Server software components.

   Install the Siebel Server software components as described in Siebel Installation Guide for the operating system you are using. Make sure that you choose a language that is supported for SSSE. For more information, see Siebel System Requirements and Supported Platforms on Oracle Technology Network.

   NOTE:  For Siebel CRM product releases 8.1.1.9 and later and for 8.2.2.2 and later, the system requirements and supported platform certifications are available from the Certification tab on My Oracle Support. For information about the Certification application, see article 1492194.1 (Article ID) on My Oracle Support.

2. After the installation of files is complete, follow Configuration Wizard prompts to configure the Siebel Server software components.

   For information on configuring the Siebel Server software components, see Using the Siebel Configuration Wizard to Configure SSSE and Siebel Installation Guide for the operating system you are using.

   Do not attempt to start the PIMSI Engine server component at this time. You cannot start the PIMSI Engine successfully until after you have configured the Exchange Connector.
