vqServer: Installation
This page describes the steps you will need to take before running
vqServer for the first time. They are worth reading, even if you are
used to installing applications on your computer.
-
Install a web browser if necessary, following its supplier's instructions,
and check that it is working correctly.
-
Install the Java Runtime Interpreter (JRE), following its supplier's
instructions, and check that it is working correctly. This documentation
assumes that you have added the JRE program directory to your
PATH environment variable and set up a CLASSPATH environment
variable as described in the JavaSoft documentation.
-
Install any Java performance-enhancing measures such as just-in-time compilers
available for your hardware and operating system, following their suppliers'
instructions. A just-in-time compiler makes a significant difference to the
performance of a complex Java application such as vqServer and is
strongly recommended. This documentation assumes that you have set up any
necessary environment variables, such as JAVA_COMPILER.
-
Create a directory for your web site. A suitable name for this directory
would be website.
-
Extract the contents of the distribution archive, vqServer.zip, to
your website directory using a utility such as pkunzip. Make sure that the
extra directory information in the distribution archive is preserved
and that long file names are used.
-
Check the results of the above extraction process. Your website directory
should now contain a number of subdirectories and a file named
readme.html.
vqServer and its installation process are free from side effects:
they do not make any changes to system files such as the Windows registry,
do not create any hidden files and do not copy any files to system directories.
However, installation of the JRE and any just-in-time compilers may have
such side effects.
