Run the UNIX Installer

Install the Report Server using the UNIX installation wizard (/ca-iamreportserver-12.5-solaris/cabiinstall.sh) found on the Report Server media. For CA Identity Manager r12.5 SP5, CA BIEK 2.1 (BusinessObjects XI R2 SP4) is supported as the Business Objects Report Server on UNIX.

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

chmod+x /ca-iamreportserver-12.5-solaris/cabiinstall.sh

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. Log in as the non-root user you created to install the Report Server.
2. Exit all applications.
3. Download the Report Server and untar it.

   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 commands:

   /ca-iamreportserver-12.5-solaris/cabiinstall.sh gui
   

   The installation wizard starts.

6. Use the gathered reporting information to install the Report Server.

   Note the following:

   • Select a Typical install during installation. This ensures that you use MySQL as the Report Database. If you need to set non-default ports to avoid port conflicts, select a Custom install, but be sure to select MySQL for the Report Database.
   • The installer installs the Report Server to /opt/CA/SharedComponents/CommonReporting. Specifying another location does not change the installation location. So 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.
