Installing Winform

Before you install the Winform software, you must install the following software:

You must also have administrative privileges on the machine on which you want to install Winforms, and 5Mb of free disk space.

Note: For the Winform client machines to communicate with the runtime server, the usercodes of the client machines must be known on the server. This is accomplished when a user logs in by using a domain usercode/password, and that domain is trusted on the server. The Winform client machines cannot communicate with the runtime server if they are across non-trusted domains.

You can install Winform (32-bit) or (64-bit) software on a client machine. You do not need to install this component if you have already installed the Development Environment, as the Winform container is included in that installation.

Click Winform (32-bit) or Winform (64-bit) to begin the installation. The Installation wizard appears and a number of checks are carried out on the system to ensure it has the correct underlying system software to complete a satisfactory installation. If the checks identify that a copy of Developer is installed on the machine, the Winform installation does not proceed, as the Developer installation includes the Winform software, which is required for the debugger functionality.

Note: If two instances of the installation wizard appear, close one instance.

If the checks indicate that the Winform software is already installed on the machine as a separate instance, the Repair Remove dialog box appears.

If the checks are successful, a welcome dialog box appears, followed by a license dialog box. Click Yes on the license dialog box, if you want to accept the conditions and continue with the installation.

You can then select the target drive and directory for the installation, if you do not want to accept the default installation location.

Note: If an installation of Agile Business Suite Runtime exists on the target machine, the destination dialog is skipped, as the Winform software must be installed in the same location as the existing Runtime components.

When you have entered the location for the target drive and directory, or accepted the default location for the installation, click Next to display the Start Copying Files dialog box. This allows you to review the installation settings before completing the installation. This screen displays components that are selected and the installation directory. If you are satisfied with the settings, click Next to proceed with the installation. You can click Back to make changes, if any.

At the completion of installation, the Installation Complete Screen appears. This screen allows you to view the readme file. If you do not want to view the readme file, clear the check box. Click Finish to complete the installation.
