Sun Java Communications Suite 5 Installation Guide

ProcedureTo Select Components and Languages

The installer checks your host for previously installed versions of product components. If any are found, a list of the detected components is displayed, under the title Component Products on This Host.

Later in the installation session, you might be instructed to upgrade or remove those components before continuing. When these issues are resolved, installation can proceed.

The installer displays the Component Selection Main Menu. For example:


Choose Software Components - Main Menu
---------------------------------------
Note: "*  *" indicates that the selection is disabled

   Enter a comma separated list of products to install, or press R to refresh
   the list [] {"<" goes back, "!" exits}:
  1. Type a comma-separated list of the numbers associated with the components you want to install, and press Return.

    The installer presents a list called Choose Software Components — Confirm Choices which shows the components you selected.

  2. If the chosen components are correct, press Return.

    The installer queries you about installing subcomponents for those components you chose. For example:


    Component Selection - Selected Product "Sun Java (TM) System Directory Server Enterprise Edition 6.0 2006Q4"
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    *[X] 1. Java Enter5prise System Directory Server 6 Core Server
    *[X] 1. Java Enter5prise System Directory Service Control Center
    *[X] 1. Java Enter5prise System Directory Server Enterprise Edition 6 Command-Line Utilities
    *[X] 1. Java Enter5prise System Directory Proxy Server 6 Core Server
    
    Enter a comma-separated list of componets to install (or D to install all) [D] {"<" goes back, "!" exits}

    Not all product components have subcomponents. In this case, these components are displayed, but no response is required from you.

  3. Make your subcomponent selections.

    After you have confirmed all your subcomponent selections, the installer queries you about installing multilingual packages.

  4. To install multilingual packages for all selected components, type Y and press Return.

    Default is N, which means only English packages are installed. If you type Y, multilingual packages are installed for all languages for all the components you selected.

  5. Resolve product component dependency errors.

    If there is a problem with component dependencies, the installer displays a Product Dependency Check error or warning, depending on the problem. Typical problems might include:

    • A local dependency has not been met

      In this situation, return to Component Selection and select the appropriate product component to satisfy the local dependency.

    • A remote dependency will be met later during postinstallation configuration

      If you do not intend to specify a remote installation, return to Component Selection and select the appropriate product component to satisfy the dependency locally.

    • Previous versions of product components are already installed on the local host

      If incompatible versions of product components are detected, you will need to exit the installer and upgrade or remove the incompatible versions.

  6. Resolve shared component dependency errors.

    If any incompatible versions of shared components are found on the host, you are asked if you want to upgrade them. Review the Shared Components Upgrade Required list and determine if it is safe for the installer to automatically upgrade these shared components.


    Caution – Caution –

    Do not upgrade shared components without checking the dependencies that exist on the host for non-Communications Suite applications. First verify that these existing applications are compatible with the required versions of the shared components. For information about upgrading Communications Suite product components, see the Sun Java Communications Suite 5 Upgrade Guide, and for Java ES products see the Sun Java Enterprise System 2006Q3 Upgrade Guide.


    • Type 1 (the default) or press Return to have the installer upgrade the shared components.

    • Type 2 to cancel the installation session so that you can upgrade the shared components manually.

    If you type 2, you must remove or upgrade the shared components on the Shared Components Upgrade Required list before you can continue with installation.

  7. On Solaris OS, indicate if the installer should upgrade the J2SE SDK.

    If an incompatible system-wide version of the J2SE SDK is detected, you are asked if you want the installer to upgrade or if you want to upgrade manually. The installer performs this check only on the Solaris platform because the Linux platform does not have a specific, system-wide installation of the J2SE SDK.
