Performing the installation

  1. By clicking on the UCServer_xx-XX.msi the server installation starts.
  2. The version number is displayed on the welcome page. If an older installation already exists, this number is removed. You can select the application of existing settings later during the estos UCServer setup.
  3. Read and confirm the licensing agreement.
  4. After a short period, you receive the message "The estos UCServer was successfully installed". Click on Complete.
  5. If you haven't removed the tick on Start now estos UCServer server setup, the estos UCServer setup automatically starts at he point where you can carry out the most important basic settings. The estos UCServer setup can also be found on the Windows® start menu where you can check settings or change them. Help with the estos UCServer setup dialogs can be found under Setup.

The server may not be installed directly from the zip file supplied as otherwise the Windows® installer cannot find ProCall_xx-XX.msi which is required for installing or updating the workstations.

Notes for the installation with Microsoft® Installer on a terminal server

The following points should be borne in mind when running a .msi file on a Terminal Server:

  • Administrators and non-administrators can run Windows® Installer Installations from the command line.
  • A terminal server remote session allows only administrators to perform installations.
  • Administrators can only perform Windows® Installer installations from a remote session if the EnableAdminTSRemote system policy is activated. This policy is only available from Windows® Installer version 1.1 upwards and Windows® 2000 and later Windows® versions.
  • The Windows® Installer is started as a system service and therefore cannot access connected network drives. If you execute .msi from a network resource, use UNC paths (\\Server\Verzeichnis\produkt.msi).
  • If you get an Error 2755: Server returned unexpected error 3 attempting to install package message the cause is usually that you have run the setup from a network drive and have not used UNC paths (the installer service cannot find the .msi).
