Run the UNIX Installer

Install the Report Server using the UNIX installation wizard (ca-iamreportserver-12.5sp1-sol.bin) found on the Report Server media.

Note: You may need to add executable permissions to the install file by running the following command:

chmod+x ca-iamreportserver-12.5-sol.bin

Important! The installer may crash if executed across different subnets. To avoid this problem, install the Report Server directly on the host machine.

To install the Report Server

1. Exit all applications.
2. Download the Report Server and untar it.
3. Note: The Report Server is available for download on the CA Support site, under CA Identity Manager product downloads.
4. Open a command window and navigate to where the install program is located.
5. Enter the following command:

   sh./ca-iamreportserver-12.5sp1-sol.bin
   

   The installation wizard starts.

6. Use the gathered reporting information to install the report server.

   Choosing a Typical install installs Tomcat and use MySQL as the Report Database by default. A Custom install will allow you to select another type of database for your Report Database.

   Note the following:

   • The installer installs the report server to /opt/CA/SharedComponents/CommonReporting. Specifying another location does not change the installation location. The /opt/CA directory must have non-root user permissions or the installation fails.
   • If you are installing the Report Server on the same system as CA Identity Manager, ensure that the Tomcat connection port does not conflict with the port number you specified for the application server URL when installing CA Identity Manager.
7. Review the installation settings and click Install.

   The Report Server is installed.

8. Click Done and reboot the system.
