1 OverviewThis document details the steps required to install jBASE 4.1 on Windows 2003 Server. Temenos certified the use for jBASE 4.1 in 2006. Before installing jBASE, it is required that Microsoft C++ from Microsoft Visual Studio .NET (2002 or later) package is installed, with at least the components in the picture below. Installing Visual Studio .NET is not covered in this document.

2 Assumptions and DefinitionsIt is assumed that the reader has basic MS Windows knowledge. Requirements are to retrieve the jBASE installation kit (e.g. from a CD-ROM, FTP server, web site etc.), perform simple activities, and overall understand what is going on during this process.

It is also assumed that the MS WINDOWS server has been installed properly, and that the operator has administrator access to the machine. All the steps below are to be carried on from an administrative session.

The following screenshots should be self explanatory.

3 Installation Procedure3.1 Unpack FilesCopy the installation kit in a “work” folder on the server. The Kit is a self-extracting archive.

3.2 Run Setup ProgramDouble click on the jBASE icon from the folder in which it was copied. Press the Setup button.

After uncompressing the kit, the setup will start by asking for the installation language

It’s followed by the License agreement.

Next comes the question about the install type: Default or Custom. We recommend performing a custom installation, since there are a few packages that we will not use.

The installation will now proceed. A screen showing the choice of installation path, programs etc. will appear. Read it carefully. At this point it’s still possible to change easy the parameters by pressing the BACK button. After pressing NEXT the installation will begin.

Press Yes.

After a few minutes (depending on server hardware), the installation will complete. A log can be easy accessed by pressing the Log button.

Press Finish.

Press OK.

Close any open programs and manually reboot the system.

3.3 Install License KeyjBASE 4.1, as opposed to version 4.0, has a licensing mechanism that actually works. A license key is required to operate jBASE. The key is tied to the computer name (hostname) where jBASE runs, hence a key cannot be used on two systems connected to the same network.

The license key is issued by Temenos. In order to obtain it, Temenos will require the server hostname. To get this, simply run the “hostname” command in a command prompt:C:\>hostnamemnotebookC:\>

At the time of writing this document, Temenos was issuing a special license key named “override code”. This code is to be installed with the jInstallKey tool.

jBASE 4.1 also comes with a license manager service called SLIM (“jBASE System LIcense Manager”). This service is managed by the jSlimServer tool, which also manages SLIM licenses. SLIM licenses have a different format than the override codes, and also they have expiration dates – which is not the case with override codes, which do not expire. Unless instructed differently, do not try to use the jSlimServer tool to install the license that you were provided, since it will not work. These notes were provided here only for reference, just in case the licensing procedure will be changed at some point in the future.

As mentioned above, use jInstallKey to install the license code:
