Installing the client components

To install Meridian on a client computer with the Windows Installer Package, see Controlling Windows Installer packages.

To install Meridian on a client computer:

  1. Begin the installation as described in Starting Meridian installation.
  2. On the Setup Type page, select one of the following options depending on the required client components:

    Click Next to continue. The Choose Computer page appears.

  3. Type the name of the Meridian application server. Click Next to continue.
  4. Complete installation as described in Finishing up installation.

To add components to an existing installation:

Note    To add client components to an existing installation, whether a server installation or a client installation, use the same installation package as the original installation. Do not run more than one installation package on the same computer. For example, to add client components to a server for testing, reuse the server installation package. Or to add the Meridian Web Client to a PowerUser installation, reuse the client installation package. Only use a different installation package if you want to add components that are not included in the original installation package. In that case, first uninstall the original installation first, then start the other installation package. For information about the components included in each installation package, see Choosing an installation file.

  1. In the Windows Control Panel, in the Programs and Features folder, select BlueCielo Meridian Enterprise and then click Change in the toolbar. The Meridian setup program starts.
  2. Click Next. The Program Maintenance page appears.
  3. Select Modify and then click Next. The Custom Setup page appears.
  4. Select the components that you want to add to the installation and then click Next. The Ready to Modify the Program page appears.
  5. Click Install. The existing installation is modified with your component selections.
