WebOffice 10.4 SP2 allows an automatic installation of certain components. Nevertheless a manual adaption after the installation is necessary. Before starting the automatic installation, please read the limiting factors carefully and contact your WebOffice support team to clarify whether this type of installation is appropriate for your system.
Note: The automatic installation is exclusively suitable for a single server scenario in which WebOffice 10.4 SP2 specific components (e. g. Apache Tomcat, WebOffice web application, WebOffice author, WebOffice extensions, etc.) of previous installations must not exist.
Note: Precondition for a correct installtion using the automatic setup is a correct installation of ArcGIS for Server and ArcGIS for Desktop.
Note: An activated anti virus software might cause an incorrect execution of the automatic installation. Please pay attention to stop/deactivate any anti virus software during automatic installation.
Note: After a successful setup from the WebOffice Installer the WebOffice extensions 10.4 have to be installed manually. Be aware that for different systems different WebOffice extensions 10.4 setups exist. Therefore consider the steps from chapter Install WebOffice Extensions.
