    How to Use SpagoBI Installer 1.9.2

    Server choice

    SpagoBI Platform must be installed on an existing application server installed on your pc.
    This server can be Tomcat, JBoss or JOnAS (you can choose) and must have eXo-Portal Platform
    installed on it.
    Possible server/eXo-Portal versions for SpagoBI Platform 1.9.2 are:
    1. Tomcat 5.0.28 with eXo-Portal 1.1.4
    2. JBoss 4.0.3SP1 with eXo-Portal 1.1.2
    3. JOnAS 4.7.4 with eXo-Portal 1.1.3
    If you don't have any of the above servers on your pc you have to proceed as follows:
    1. Tomcat 5.0.28 with eXo-Portal 1.1.4
    download eXoPortal-tomcat-1.1.4.zip from:
    http://forge.objectweb.org/project/download.php?group_id=151&
    file_id=7208
    unzip it into a local folder and the job is done.
    2. JBoss 4.0.3SP1 with eXo-Portal 1.1.2
    download jboss-4.0.3SP1.zip from:
    http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=22866&p

    download eXoPortal-jboss-1.1.2.zip from:


    http://forge.objectweb.org/project/download.php?group_id=151&
    file_id=6228
    then follow the installation instructions.
    3. JOnAS 4.7.4 with eXo-Portal 1.1.3
    download jonas4.7.4-tomcat5.5.15.tgz from:
    http://forge.objectweb.org/project/download.php?group_id=5&fi
    le_id=6132
    download eXoPortal-JOnAS-1.1.3.zip from:
    http://forge.objectweb.org/project/download.php?group_id=151&
    file_id=6838
    then follow the installation instructions.
    SpagoBI installation requires overwriting some existing files on server, therefore it is suggested to
    install SpagoBI on a clean server.
    When you have one of the above servers correctly installed, you can proceed with the SpagoBI
    installation choosing the server type.

    How to Use SpagoBI Installer 1.9.2

    The available packs are summarized here below:

    installation files (libraries, configuration files, ...): this pack is mandatory;


    SpagoBI Core: it is mandatory;
    SpagoBI external engines: they are all optional;
    SpagoBI examples (the example documents of SpagoBI Demo and the example portal
    named 'sbiportal' with demonstrative groups and users configured): they are optional;
    documentation about SpagoBI: it is optional.

    You can choose the SpagoBI external engines to be installed according to your requirements.
    You can also choose to install or not the example documents of SpagoBI Demo.
    WARNING: SpagoBI Demo examples contains documents for all SpagoBI supported engines. If
    you exclude some engines from the installation procedure, the relevant examples will not work!!
    Data warehouse configuration

    Only if you decided not to install the SpagoBI Demo examples, the installer will ask you the
    connection parameters to your data warehouse (driver, connection url, username and password).
    The available database servers are Hsqldb, Oracle, Postgres or MySql.

    How to Use SpagoBI Installer 1.9.2

    If you have decided to install the SpagoBI Demo examples, the installer will not ask you any
    connection parameters since the data warehouse is supposed to be an Hsql demonstrative db that
    will be automatically installed on your pc.
    Exo Portal path selection

    You have to select the base folder were the server (hosting eXo portal) is installed. See previous
    Server Choice chapter.

    How to Use SpagoBI Installer 1.9.2

    Local repository selection

    The installer does not contain all the packs needed for the installation but it is able to automatically
    download them from the ObjectWeb repository (that's the remote repository). More precisely,
    SpagoBI core and external engines binary packs are not included; they will be downloaded into a
    local folder of your choice (that's local repository).
    In order to avoid redundant and heavy downloads, the installer asks you if you have a local
    repository, since maybe you donwloaded the packs manually before or you installed SpagoBI 1.9.2
    using the same installer another time before: if it is the case, you have to select the folder were
    binary packs were downloaded. Instead, if it is the first time you use this installer, just select an
    empty folder: binary packs will be downloaded there and you will be able to use it as local
    repository during next installation procedures.
    Then the installer will perform all the operation required.
