2. Installing and Configuring - Express Mode

This tutorial walks you through the end-to-end process of installing and configuring Adobe LiveCycle ES2 (Enterprise Suite) using the turnkey method in Express mode. This tutorial assumes that you are running Windows Server 2008 (64-bit) on a computer configured with the minimum requirements outlined in System requirements on page 4. If you are running on a different operating system, refer to the Installing and Deploying LiveCycle ES2 Using Turnkey document. This tutorial also assumes that you are accepting all default values except where indicated in the instructions. The default installation directory is C:\Adobe\Adobe LiveCycle ES2\.

Installing LiveCycle ES2 using Express Mode

Prepare to install
1

Check the installation media: DVD: Ensure that the installation media that you received is not damaged. If you copy the installer media contents to the hard disk of your computer where you are installing LiveCycle ES2, ensure that you copy the entire DVD contents on to the local hard disk. Running the installer from a shared network drive is much slower than running it locally. ESD downloaded files: If you downloaded the installer from the Adobe web site (the LiveCycle ES2 Electronic Software Download or ESD file), verify the integrity of the installer file using the MD5 checksum. Use a tool such as WinMD5 to calculate and compare the MD5 checksum of the downloaded file with the checksum published on the Adobe download web page. Note: To avoid installation errors, do not copy the install files to a directory path that exceeds the Windows maximum path length limit. Typically, long network paths cause this error.

(ESD only) Extract the entire JBoss_DVD.zip archive file to your computer. Note: Be sure to keep the directory hierarchy unchanged from the original ESD file. Disable any on-access virus scanning software for the duration of the installation. This greatly improves the installation speed.
