Pre-Installation Requirements (Clean Installations)

.........................................................................................................................................................................................
Overview
Before you proceed with the actual installation of the SMS application for the first time on
a host, some pre-installation steps are required:
1. Resolve potential web server port conflicts.
2. Install Adobe Acrobat Reader
3. Obtain the SMS installation keys.
Resolve potential web server port conflicts
The SMS application includes a web server. If there is another web server running on the
host machine (such as Apache), you must either:
•
Shut the web server down
Note: If there is an entry in the /etc/inittab file to automatically start your web server,
you must remove or disable this entry so that it does not conflict with the SMS server.
or
•
Select a different port for the SMS web server when prompted by the installation
program
Port 80 is the default SMS web server port. In the event that another web server is already
using port 80 (such as Apache), you must either change the port on that web server or
select a different port when configuring the SMS web server.
Install Adobe Acrobat Reader
Adobe Acrobat Reader is required to view the on-line documentation that is provided with
the application. A copy of this application can be downloaded from the Adobe website,
http://www.adobe.com.
