Chapter 3: Installing ReportNet on Windows<br />
If you use a Microsoft SQL Server database, the JSQLConnect.jar file is installed to the<br />
appropriate location by default <strong>and</strong> no additional steps are required.<br />
Steps for Oracle<br />
1. On the computer where Oracle is installed, go to the ORACLE_HOME/jdbc/lib directory.<br />
2. Copy the classes12.zip file to the crn_location/webapps/p2pd/WEB-INF/lib directory on the<br />
computer where Content Manager is installed.<br />
3. Rename the classes12.zip file to classes12.jar.<br />
Steps for DB2<br />
What’s Next?<br />
1. Install the DB2 client software on the computer where Content Manager is installed.<br />
2. Run the DB2 Client <strong>Configuration</strong> Assistant to configure a database alias to the content<br />
store.<br />
3. On Windows, stop the DB2 services <strong>and</strong> the HTML Search Server.<br />
4. Go to the appropriate directory to copy the JDBC2 driver:<br />
• For version 7.2, on Windows, go to DB2_installation\java12 directory <strong>and</strong> run the<br />
usejdbc2.bat script.<br />
This copies the JDBC2 driver, db2java.zip, to the DB2_installation/java directory.<br />
• For version 7.2, on UNIX, go to the DB2_installation/java12 directory.<br />
• For version 8, go to the DB2_installation/java directory.<br />
5. Copy the db2java.zip file to the crn_location/webapps/p2pd/WEB-INF/lib directory.<br />
6. Rename the db2java.zip file to db2java.jar.<br />
7. On Windows, restart the DB2 services <strong>and</strong> the HTML Search Server.<br />
8. On UNIX, for version 7.2, ensure that you include the DB2_installation/java12 directory in<br />
the library path environment variable <strong>and</strong> that it comes before the DB2_installation/lib<br />
directory.<br />
After you install ReportNet components on one or more Windows computers, some<br />
