Chapter 2 Installing iPlanet Web Server, Enterprise Edition on Unix 27
You need to run the server as a user that has write access to this directory, for example,
the directory owner.
7. Choose all components.
Press Enter.
8. Choose the iPlanet Web Server subcomponents to install
If you do not install a subcomponent and later decide you want to use it, you can run
the installer again to install just the missing subcomponent. However, you cannot
uninstall individual subcomponents once they are installed.
By default, all subcomponents are installed.
If you are migrating from iPlanet Web Server 4.x, when you install subcomponents,
you must install all the subcomponents you installed for 4.x, otherwise they are not
migrated properly and may not work. You can install additional subcomponents as
well.
The subcomponents you can choose to install are described in the following numbered
sections.
Server Core. Installs the Administration Server and the first instance of iPlanet Web
Server.
Java Runtime Environment. If you are planning to use the Administration Server
and/or Java and servlets support, you must have a Java Runtime Environment (JRE) or
a Java Developer’s Kit (JDK), also known as Java 2 Software Development Kit (SDK).
You can install the provided JRE, or supply your own JDK. For more information, see
“Installing a Java Developer’s Kit,” on page 21.
CAUTION
You must install the Server Core and Java Support subcomponents the first time you
install iPlanet Web Server. If you install additional subcomponents later, you are not
required to reinstall the Core subcomponent.
CAUTION
If you are using HP-UX, even if you are not installing Java you must install the JRE
or supply a JRE or JDK. Without one or the other, the HP-UX iPlanet Web Server
won’t run.
