Installation quick start
This chapter explains how to install FileMaker Server on a single machine.
Before you begin
Here is a list of things you must do before installing FileMaker Server:
1 To install on more than one machine, see chapter 2, “Deploying FileMaker Server across multiple machines.”
1 To enable web publishing, ensure that the web server is enabled. See chapter 6, “Setting up the web server.”
1 If your server computer has a firewall, open the necessary ports in the firewall so that FileMaker Server can
communicate with users and administrators:
1 Required on all deployments: 5003, 16000, and 16001.
1 Additionally required for web publishing: 80.
1 Ports 16004, 16006, 16008, 16010, 16012, 16014, 16016, 16018, 50003, and 50006 must be available on the
machine, but not open in the firewall. For more information, see
“One-machine deployment” on page 32.
Note If you are already running FileMaker Pro on the same machine, you must quit FileMaker Pro before
installing FileMaker Server.
1 To upgrade from an earlier version of FileMaker Server, see chapter 5, “Upgrading or moving an existing
installation.” To upgrade to FileMaker Server Advanced, see “Updating the FileMaker Server 9 license” on
page 13.
1 Locate your license key. See “About the license key” on page 12.
