Installing Corticon Server for .NET

When you install .NET Server 7.1 on a machine that has an IIS Server setup that satisfies the prerequisites, the Corticon .NET Server installer will install or update .NET Server 7.x.

To create or update an installation of .NET server 7.x:

1. On the target machine, access the Corticon 7.x installers you downloaded.
2. To open the .NET Server Setup Wizard on Windows, double click on: PROGRESS_CORTICON_7.x.x_SERVER.NET_WIN_64.exe
   Note: While not typically required, if you are told to do an administrator install, right-click on the EXE file, and then choose Run as administrator.
   The installer opens in the installer wizard. The first installer panel opens with information about the installer.

   
   
   

3. Click Next to continue.
4. The Choose Server .Net Install and Work Directory panel opens.
   
   
5. The default installation directories are shown. To specify preferred directories on each line, either enter the explicit path, or click Choose to browse to each preferred directory.
6. Click Next to continue. The Add Corticon License? panel opens:
   
   
   
   • If you select Add Corticon license file to installation? on this panel, the entry area for the License File lets you enter or choose the path where you have staged your .NET ENABLED license file on the local machine. The license will be copied to the .NET server.
   • If you skip the selection, a normal installation will proceed. However, Corticon .NET will not open for your use here or on the IIS Server until you add an appropriate license file from a staging location.
7. The default install directory is shown. To specify a preferred directory, enter the explicit path, or click Choose to browse to each preferred directory.
8. Verify your selections in the Pre-Installation Summary panel. Nothing has happened yet so you can click Previous to go back to a panel to make changes, or click Cancel to quit this installation procedure.
9. Click Install to continue. The installation status window opens. When done, the Install Complete panel opens.
10. Click Done to complete the Corticon .NET Server 7.1 installation and close the installer.
11. In your .NET Server installation's C:\Progress\Corticon 7.1\Server .NET\IIS folder, run install.bat as administrator, entering Y or A to install all the files.
12. If you did not reference your license through the installer wizard, copy your .NET CcLicense.jar file to C:/inetpub/wwwroot/Corticon/lib/.

The installation and update of Corticon .NET Server and its setup on IIS Server are complete. See the instructions for Web services on .NET for additional information.
