The requirements to install the Windows patch include:
Access Manager 7 2005Q4 must be installed on the Windows system. For information about installation, see the Sun Java Enterprise System 2005Q4 Installation Guide for Microsoft Windows.
To run the patch scripts, ActivePerl 5.8 (or later) is required on the Windows system.
Before you install the Windows patch, make sure that you have backed up the files listed in Pre-Installation Considerations.
In the base directory path for input to the patch scripts, use a forward slash (/). For example: c:/sun
To install the Windows patch:
Logon to the Windows system as a member of the Administrators group.
Create a directory to download and unzip the Windows patch file. For example: AM7p8
Download and unzip the 124296-09.zip file in the directory from the previous step.
Stop all Java ES 2005Q4 services.
Run the AM7p8\scripts\prepatch.pl script.
Run AM7p8\124296-09.exe to install the patch.
Run the AM7p8\scripts\postpatch.pl script.
Restart the Java ES 2005Q4 services.
Redeploy the Access Manager applications. See Post-Installation Considerations for more information.
Run the AM7p8\scripts\updateschema.pl script to update the Directory Server service schema. The script validates your entries and then loads the files. The script also writes the following log file:
javaes-install-directory\AccessManager\AM70Patch-upgrade-schema-timestamp
Restart the Java ES 2005Q4 services.
To back out the Windows patch:
Logon to the Windows system as a member of the Administrators group.
Run the Uninstall_124296-09.bat file.
Run the AM7p8\scripts\postbackout.pl script.
Redeploy the Access Manager applications.
Restart the Java ES 2005Q4 services.
Note: If you back out the patch, the schema changes added by the AM7p8\scripts\updateschema.pl script are not removed from Directory Server. However, you do not need to remove these schema changes manually because they will not affect Access Manager functionality or usability after the patch is backed out.
