Prerequisites

During this step the wizard will check if your system fulfills the software requirements. Some of the missing prerequisites will be installed directly from the wizard during the installation.

To use Search service (legacy or V2), the Java component has to be present on the computer. You don't have to download and install it separately, it will be installed directly from the setup.

warning

Important: The setup will change the value of the JAVA_HOME variable to point to the version installed by setup. This may cause other already installed applications (using the older JAVA) to fail, so please check their functionality after the setup is completed. If the computer/server is already running a newer version than the one included in setup, it will not be touched/downgraded.

info

Note: For the Indexing job to work also for PDF files using the Adobe PDF iFilter, the Path environment variable for the PDF iFilter must be set manually. For more details, please see this FAQ section.

Use the [refresh] button to actualize the prerequisite information after the missing software is installed. If it still doesn’t recognize some, restart the PC and start the contentACCESS installation again. Once it is ready, the user can continue with the installation process. After the wizard has run the system requirements check, click NEXT.

For more information about these requirements, check the section above: Software requirements.

Note: MS Outlook prerequisite will be checked only in case that the license supports email based plugins.
