3 Installing with the Agile e6 Installer

The Agile e6 Installer, version 6.2, facilitates the installation of the Agile e6 Client Set, which comprises of the following components:

• Java Client

  
  

  Note: The Java Client requires a 32-bit JRE.

  
  

• AutoVue Integration

  
  

  Note: The AutoVue Integration requires an additional 64-bit JRE.

  
  

• Office Suite

• Chooser: 32-bit JRE

  Required for the Java Client.

• Chooser: 64-bit JRE

  Required for the Agile e6 AutoVue Integration.

To install the Agile e6 Client set:

1. Extract the downloaded installation file.

2. Start the command shell with "Run as administrator".

3. Set Java Home path.

   set JAVA_HOME=C:\Program File (x86)\Java\jre7

7. Enter the Destination path where the Agile e6 Client set should be installed and click Next.

   
   

   Note: The installation destination is the root path to install the Agile e6 Client set. This has to be either a non existing path or an empty directory. For every component of the Agile e6 Client set, a separate subdirectory is created under this path.

   
   

   The Installer Components screen is opened.

   
   

   Note: Only a user with Administrator rights can install the Agile e6 Office Suite.

   
   

8. Select the Agile e6 components to be installed and click Next.

   1. For the Java Client installation, enter the home directory for 32-bit JRE Version 8.

   2. For the AutoVue Integration installation, enter the home directory for the 64-bit JRE Version 8

      
      
      
      

      Note: De-selecting the AutoVue Integration component is also disabling the 64-bit JRE option. De-selecting the Agile e6 Java Client is also disabling the 32-bit JRE option, and the Agile e6 AutoVue Integration component and its 64-bit JRE option.

      
      

   3. Click Next.

   4. For the Agile e6 Office Suite, the Component Configuration window is opened.

      
      

   5. Select the desired prerequisites for the MS Office Suite version and click Next.

      The following sample screen shows some failed checks, too. This implies that some of the prerequisites are not installed on your system.

      
      

      Note: All General checks have to pass for a successful installation. The Additional checks are not mandatory and reflect the Office products which are found on the system and for which the Office Suite will be enabled.

      
      
      
      

      a) If you notice any failed checks (displayed with Red markings), click Back to stop the installer and install the prerequisites.

      
      

      Note: The prerequisites are not installed by the Installer. If any of the prerequisites are missing, you are required to stop the installation, install the missing prerequisites and then start the installation process again.

      
      

      b) If you wish to fix the failed checks after the installation, click Ignore failed checks and continue.

      
      

      Note: It may not be possible to fix the failed checks afterwards.

      
      

      The system will be installed.

      
      

      The Install Complete screen is opened.

Make sure that the directory where the trace file should be stored in is available.
