Performing Postinstallation Tasks
Before you run Progress Version 9, there are a few postinstallation tasks you must complete:
- Set Environment Variables — For more information on setting environment variables (including SQL), see Setting Up Your Environment."
- Create Customized Executables — To create customized product executables, see the “Building Progress Executables” appendix in Progress Client Deployment Guide . Creating executables might be required for certain product configurations.
- Convert Existing Databases — After your Progress Version 9 installation is complete, you must convert your Version 8 databases to Version 9 using the PROUTIL CONV89 utility. Note that if you have a Version 6 or Version 7 database, you must convert it to a Version 8 database first. For instructions on converting your Version 8 databases to Version 9, see the “Administration Utilities” chapter in the Progress Database Administration Guide and Reference .
NOTE: For detailed information about how to verify that groups have been created, and how to access and set up group members for each group on a Windows platform, refer to your operating system-specific documentation. Also, the criteria you use to set up users within each group is determined by your company.- Validate and Populate Group Names for the AdminServer Security Option — The tasks to verify that your groups were created, and to identify the specific members of these groups, are accomplished outside of the Progress Version 9.1E installation. The installation process only allows you to creation the groups that you specify.
For example, the following generalized steps outline suggest one procedure you can use to verify that your groups exist and to create users for each group if you have successfully installed Progress Version 9.1E on Windows 2000:
- From the Control Panel, choose Administrative Tools and select Computer Management.
- Choose System Tools to display a list.
- Select Local Users and Groups, and choose Groups.
Verify that the groups you created during the installation process are among those listed.
- To populate a given group, double click the group name and complete the Group Properties dialog box.
