PVSS Installation of a Project Need to run this by Xiaofeng to make sure the steps are right

Assumes PVSS installed Current patch shouldn’t be later than July 08, because there were problems with the DB since then. I don’t use the DB, so it doesn’t matter much, but…

Get Framework Install framework in PVSS as specified Get fwInstallation package and save Use a separate directory from the ETM tree

Unpack your project into a folder

Run PVSS, request new project

Standard is OK

Tell it the project name Browse for the folder

Create new folder

Project Name doesn’t have to be the same as the folder name

General Settings are OK

Wait for a few minutes

And acknowledge the OK

New Project appears

Unpack fwInstallation package: Next slide

into subfolder of project

Start Project You click on the project Put the mouse over the “start project” icon Click when the icon turns green (a few seconds)

Next Log Viewer, Gedi, and PVSS Console appear In Gedi, start the Installer as shown in the next slide

Gedi

From subfolder fwInstallation

fwInstallation.pnl

SOME Framework versions! Asks for a directory to install in: invents a name. OK

SOME Framework versions! Wants a DB connection. I DON’T USE THIS: NO

Framework Installation Panel Browse for folder

Select folder

Select Components Click on components you need Then click Install

Select installation directory Suggested is OK Click OK

Click Install again on Framework Installation Panel! I don’t know why Some Framework versions only

Click OK for installation

Project will have to restart This takes a few minutes

Windows will complain Make sure you unblock everything it complains about. I use DIM, and Windows firewall wants to make sure that’s all right with me.

Now run the fwInstallation Panel again See previous slides – Gedi – fwInstallation – fwInstallation.pnl

Install your project

Select Install Click Install at the bottom of the list

OK to verification panel

Project will have to restart This takes a few minutes

Fiddle with your new project as needed In my case I need to change the DIM DNS server
