Windows Installation Checklist
1. Directory for ISA temporary files _________________________ Specify the location for the ISA temporary files.
2. Destination for ISA installation _________________________ Specify the location for the ISA installation.
3. Program Folder _________________________ Specify the Program Folder to which to add ISA.
4. ISA Apache HTTP server
  • yes
If yes, ISA installs Apache in the destination directory and configures it automatically. ISA does not overwrite any existing Apache environments currently on your system.
  • No
If no, installation will discontinue.
5. Specify Apache Port Number _________________________ Make sure that the port number you specify is between 1025 and 65535 inclusive and is available for use on the machine on which you are installing ISA.

If your environment does not use the services file for port numbers, check with your system administrator.

Make sure that you add this port number to the services file.

6. Specify ISA Administrator Email _________________________ This must be a valid email address.

ISA sends problem reports to this email address. We recommend that you create an alias isa-admin for this purpose.

ISA stores this information in the ServerAdmin parameter in the <isadir>\httpd\Apache\conf\httpd.conf file.

7. Java-enabled features
  • yes
To use the Java-enabled ISA features (Server Setup and Remote Monitoring), you must have a Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version 1.2.2 or higher already installed.

If yes, fill out the steps 7a and 7b. The installation will configure ISA to use the JRE.

  • no
If no, skip to step 8.

If you continue the installation without the JRE and later want to access the Remote Monitoring or Server Setup features, you must install the JRE, stop the Apache HTTP server, and reinstall ISA.

7a. Specify Apache JServ Port Number _________________________

Make sure that port number you choose is between 1025 and 65535 inclusive, different from the ISA Apache HTTP server port number, and is available for use on the machine on which you are installing ISA.

Make sure that you add this port number to the services file.

7b. Specify Location of JVM _________________________ Specify the complete file path to the JRE executable (java). For example, C:\Informix\ISA\java\bin.
8. Run ISA   To run ISA, open a web browser, access http://hostname:port_number/, and log in as user informix.

Before you can run ISA, you must complete step 4 in 4. Installing ISA for the First Time.
