Installing JRun

Windows installation

This section describes how to install JRun on a Windows system.

Note:   Before installing JRun, ensure that you installed a JRE version 1.3.0 or later on your computer. If not, you can obtain the Sun JRE from http://java.sun.com.

To install JRun:

1. Run the JRun installation file jrun-40-win-en.exe. A JRE version 1.3.0 or later is required for installing JRun.

   The Welcome window appears:

   

2. Click Next.

   The License Agreement window appears:

   

3. Select one of the following options:
   • To continue the installation, select I Accept the Terms of the License Agreement.
   • To cancel the installation, select I Do Not Accept the Terms of the License Agreement.
4. Click Next.

   The Customer Information window appears:

   

5. Enter your name and organization's name.
6. Enter your JRun 4 serial number.

   If you are installing the JRun Developer Version, leave the field blank.

7. Select for whom to install the application, and click Next.

   The Select Java Virtual Machine window appears:

   

8. Select the JVM to use with JRun, and click Next.

   If the default choice (displayed at the bottom) is not appropriate, click Browse to select a JVM version 1.3.0 or later on your computer.

   The Destination Folder window appears:

   

9. Select an installation folder for JRun, or accept the default location, and click Next.

   Note:   By default, JRun is installed in C:\JRun4. This book refers to the install directory as jrun_root.

   The Setup Type window appears:

   

10. Select the type of installation, and click Next. The following table explains the options:

    Option	Description
    Complete	Installs all available options. This includes the JRun Application, Sample Applications, Web Server Configuration Tool, and JRun Documentation. Macromedia recommends this option for most JRun developers.
    Custom	Lets you choose the options you want to install and where to install them. Macromedia recommends this option for advanced JRun developers.

    If you select Custom, the Custom Setup window appears:

    

11. Select the components, specify the install location, and click Next.

    The User Name and Password window appears:

    

12. Enter a user name and password for the JRun Management Console (JMC). Confirm the password, and click Next.

    Note:   Make a note of your user name and password. You use them to log in to the JMC.

    The Install JRun Services window appears:

    

    Choose whether to install JRun as a Windows service. If you do not install JRun as a Windows service, it runs as an application. For information on the differences between JRun running as a Windows service or application, see "Windows services considerations".

13. Click Next.

    The Ready to Install the Program window appears:

    

14. To review or change any of the installation settings, click Back. To begin the installation, click Install.

    The JRun installer creates the appropriate directories and extracts the system files. This might take a few minutes.

    The Install Wizard Completed window appears:

    

    You can select to launch the JRun servers, launch the JMC, and view the Readme file.

    Note:   If your anti-virus software displays a script warning, select Authorize this script.

15. Click Finish to exit the wizard.
16. For what to do next, see "After installing JRun".

The windows install directions mention JRE1.3 or higher, but makes no mention of the JDK. Why is that?

JRUN - Web server configuration tool will not launch. Is there an update
for Windows 2003?

Buckshot2 said on Apr 6, 2004 at 4:25 PM :

I had a problem launching the web server config tool also. However, I got it to run normally with the {jrun}/lib/wsconfig.jar rather than {jrun}/bin/wsconfig.exe

I have the required JRE version (We're running 1.3.1_01) and whenver I try to run the installation file, it kicks me to the "failure" screen, saying that the JRun4 installation has failed.

OS: Windows2000 with SP4
JRE: 1.3.1_01

jrunrandy said on Feb 26, 2005 at 6:27 AM :

Sorry to say that I don't know the answer to your question. 1.3.1_01 is pretty old. I'd suggest trying a later 1.3.1 JVM or a 1.4.x JVM.

If that doesn't work, try posting your question to the online forums: http://webforums.macromedia.com/jrun

ErikYuzwa sent me an e-mail to say that the failure message was from an InstallShield problem related to "insufficient Component Object Model (COM) access permissions or an improperly set COM Default Impersonation Level". See this URL for more details:

My guess is that you have a corrupt download file. Please try downloading again. If the problem recurs, I suggest posting your question to the online forums: http://webforums.macromedia.com/jrun

Permissions note: When you are installing JRun on a Windows machine make sure the user you are logged in as is a member of the local Administrators group for the machine. A domain administrator doesn't always have local administrator rights on a machine.

Not being logged on as a local administrator can cause the software not to be installed properly.
