Finishing up installation

The following steps describe the remainder of the installation process after the procedures in Installing the server components. Installing the client components. or Installing the developer components have been completed.

1. If you selected the Web Access component, you are prompted next for the location of the Meridian Web Client setup files (BlueCielo Meridian Web Client.exe and BlueCielo Meridian Web Client (x64).exe). By default, this is the location from which the setup program was started. If you want users to install from different setup files, specify the location of the files. These files are not included in the Meridian Enterprise distribution package and must be obtained separately. If present, the files will be copied to C:\intepub\AMM\Res\OWC. If the files are not present, the installation will continue and you can configure the location later.

   To move the files to a different download location, see Customizing the Meridian Web Client download location.

   Click Next to continue.

2. If you selected any client components during installation, you will be prompted for the location of a Local Workspace folder. This folder is used to cache documents on a local hard disk for maximum performance. Local Workspace is always used by Web Access. It is an option for use with selected vaults by the PowerUser client. Click Next to continue.
3. The setup wizard prompts for a program folder in the Windows Start menu for the installation of program shortcuts. Usually the default folder is acceptable. Click Next to continue.
4. If you selected the EDM Server service component, you will be prompted for the location of the vault databases. For information about the amount space required and location options, see Understanding document storage space requirements. Click Next to continue.
5. If you selected the EDM Server service component, you will be prompted to verify the server’s current time settings. It is extremely important that the correct date, time, time zone, and regional settings are made on both the server and all client computers, and that all client computers are time-synchronized with the server. Click Next to continue.
6. If you selected the EDM Server service component, you will be prompted for the location of the shared extensions folder. If any client extensions are registered in a vault, they will be copied to this location where they can be downloaded by the client PCs when the vault is opened. The setup program will create a hidden share for this folder. All users require read access to this location. Usually the default folder is acceptable. Click Next to continue.
7. The last step in the setup wizard is to review all your choices. Click Next to continue. The installation begins and the progress is shown on the Setup Status page.
8. When installation is completed, you will be prompted to click Finish.
9. If any other server computers will be used with Meridian, configure a service account as described in Granting domain privileges with a service account.
   
10. If you installed the server components, proceed to upgrade the vaults as described in Upgrading Meridian vaults.
