Installing on Windows NT/2000
2.1 Pre-Installation
Rev. 1/9/01–A
2–4 Web-Based Enterprise Service Installation Guide
If you want to start with a clean error log as of this installation, rename the existing error
log file to another name before installing WEBES. The default error log is typically
%WINDIR%\system32\config\appevent.evt (the application event log). %WINDIR% is
an environment variable that specifies your Windows installation directory, such as
C:\WINNT.
On Internet Explorer, make sure that HTTP 1.1 settings are enabled. Choose
Tools | Internet Options | Advanced from the pull-down menus. Check both of the
following under HTTP 1.1 Settings:
Use HTTP 1.1
Use HTTP 1.1 through proxy connection
2.1.3 CCAT System Requirements
In addition to the common WEBES prerequisites, your system must meet the following
requirements before you install the CCAT component:
Minimum 4MB free disk space (Alpha platforms)
Virtual memory—no strict minimum is enforced, but 128MB of virtual memory
(pagefile) is recommended. You need a sufficiently large pagefile on your system disk to
allow for a dump of your system’s memory plus 12MB, and you need to allow enough
disk space to create a memory dump file if the system crashes.
The appropriate Intel or Alpha Compaq CADC kit must be installed if you wish to run
CCAT to perform local analysis. Use the appropriate CADC-NT kit for your Service Pack
level, as shown in Table 2–1.
The CADC installation requires a temporary space of up to 530MB of hard disk space.
This large size is due to the expansion of the symbols required to do crash dump analysis.
The following breakdown shows how the disk space is used:
Up to 4MB required on the system disk for program files
Up to 175MB can be required for symbols. This can be on any disk you choose,
but it is normally on the system disk.
