ARIS
Installations
Installations
This chapter lists the conditions associated with each of the different
installations. Each installation is outlined in step-by-step instructions.
The instructions assume that you will be carrying out the installations
for the first time, using the ARIS_7.exe startup file. You can also
run the relevant installation programs directly using the corresponding
Setup.exe file.
If an installation changes system files, you will be prompted to reboot
your computer after installation.
See the ARIS Administration Manual for further settings required to
use an ARIS product.
If you run the installation for an installed program for a second time,
you will be offered the following options:
Modify
You can use this option to add additional components and/or
languages.
The check boxes for components and languages that are already
installed are checked. The suffix (installed) will also be appended to
the names of the languages already installed.
Enable the check boxes for the required components and languages
and follow the instructions in the installation program. The check boxes
for installed components and languages cannot be cleared.
Repair
This option repeats installation with your previous settings. This is
useful if you have accidentally deleted a program file for example. Any
subsequently installed hotfixes will be deleted!
ARIS
Installation
Installations
Remove
This option uninstalls the component for which the installation program
was called.
If you carry out an update, add a language (Modify option) or
repeat an installation (Repair option), the system will check to
see if you have changed a CFG file manually. If you have, a
backup copy of that file will be made before the new CFG file is
installed. For example, if you have modified the arisserver.cfg
file manually, this file will be backed up in the <ARIS
installation directory>\server\backup\config directory
(see also chapter 5.3).
The settings from your previous installation are retained, e.g.
installation path, program group and language installed.

ARIS Platform - CD 1
In this chapter, the installations and contents of the CD ARIS
Platform CD 1 are described.
3.1.1
Client Installation
This chapter describes the installation of ARIS Clients.
When you install ARIS Business Architect or ARIS Business
Designer, ARIS UML Designer is also installed automatically.
You only have access to the functionality of ARIS UML
Designer if you have purchased the corresponding license key.
The ARIS WITH STANDARD LOCAL DATABASE SYSTEM
installation also installs the standard database system. This
means that you can create and edit databases on your
computer, and also work with databases on other ARIS
servers. Please note that not all ARIS products can access the
local standard database system.
The ARIS WITHOUT LOCAL STANDARD DATABASE
SYSTEM installation does not install the standard database
system. This means that you can only create and edit
databases by connecting to ARIS servers. If you want to be
able to work locally as well, select ARIS WITH LOCAL
STANDARD DATABASE SYSTEM.

Subsequent Installation
The following section describes the operations the installation program
performs if you have already installed ARIS Server and you run the
same ARIS Server installation program again.
The databases and filters you have used before are not affected by the
installation. If you want to use the demo database supplied instead of
the previous ones, you can copy it to your server using the Restore
functionality.
Report scripts provided by default with ARIS are re-installed. If you
have changed the previous reports but not renamed them, we
recommend that you create a backup copy and to insert it with a

The following directories are created:
\lan
This is the directory normally used for launching. It launches ARIS Web
Client as an applet and allows direct access to the ARIS Business
Server.
\ssl
If you select this directory for launching ARIS Web Client, data
exchange is encrypted (see chapter SSL - Encryption of Data
Transmission Using Secure Socket Layer in the Administration
Manual).
\app
If you select this directory for launching ARIS Web Client, it will be run
as an application, not as an applet (see chapter Execution as Applet
or Application in the Administration Manual).
Please note that the output and backup paths must be modified
accordingly in the <htmlgen> section of the arisserver.cfg file. If
you are using several ARIS Business Servers, you must change the
paths on the computer on which you have installed ARIS Site
Manager.
Example: <outputpath path="e:/inetpub/wwwroot/aris70"/>
<backuppath path="e:/inetpub/wwwroot/aris70/backup"/>

5.5.1
Installation
ARIS Client is already installed on the computer.
If you then install an ARIS Server, its installation directory will be
added automatically to the ARIS Toolset directory structure (<ARIS
installation directory>\server). In this case you do not need to enter
the installation directory for the ARIS Server a second time. When you
install the ARIS Server you must choose the same languages as for the
earlier ARIS Client installation.
To find out which ARIS Platform languages have been installed, run
ARIS Platform Setup again and choose the Modify option. The
installed languages are those activated on the Select Language page
of ARIS Setup. Once you have determined which languages are
installed, click on Cancel.
ARIS Server is already installed on the computer
If you then install an ARIS Client, its files and directories will be
automatically integrated into the ARIS Server directory structure. In
this case you do not need to enter the installation directory a second
time for the ARIS Client.
When you install the ARIS Client you must choose the same languages
as for the earlier ARIS Server installation.
To find out which languages have been installed for ARIS Server, run
ARIS Server Setup again and choose the Modify option. The installed
languages are those activated on the Select Language page of ARIS
Server Setup. Once you have determined which languages are
installed, click on Cancel.

Uninstall
You can uninstall both ARIS Server and the ARIS Clients individually
without affecting the functioning of the other component. The order in
which they were installed is unimportant.
