This help file provides context-sensitive help for the Setup program for installing ArcView, ArcGIS and ArcInfo Workstation.

The topics in this help file can only be accessed via the context-sensitive help controls in the Setup program.


Selecting your Installation Type

You have two installation options:

•	Install ArcEditor for individual use - Use this option to install the ArcEditor software on your local machine. With this installation type, you will need to register the software in order to use the applications.

•	Install ArcEditor on a network - System administrators should use this option to set up the ArcEditor installation and make it available to other users. This installation type copies the ArcEditor files onto a network server.  With the network install, the software is not installed and cannot be run on the network server.  To install ArcEditor (Single Use) on individual computers from the network server, users will need to run the client setup program (Setup ArcEditor.exe) from the network server and register their ArcEditor (Single Use) to run the applications.


Selecting a Software Product Type

Choose the initial software product type - ArcInfo Desktop, ArcEditor, or ArcView - for the ArcMap, ArcCatalog, and ArcToolbox applications. The software product determines which license is used when you start the applications. ArcGIS has a single ArcGIS installation with the ability to dynamically switch the level of functionality between ArcInfo, ArcEditor, and ArcView.  After installation, you can switch the software product types using the ArcGIS Desktop Administrator tool (Start > Programs > ArcGIS > Desktop Administrator).


Installing Python 2.1 and Win 32all 151 extension

Python 2.1 and Win 32all 151 extension are required to support certain core Geoprocessing tools.  It is recommended that these are installed by the ArcGIS Desktop setup.  Users can choose not to install Python 2.1 and Win 32all 151 extension by selecting a Custom installation and unselecting the Python feature.

Python 2.1 and Win 32all 151 will not be removed during the uninstallation of ArcGIS Desktop.  They should be removed manually through Add/Remove Programs where they are listed as Python 2.1 and Python 2.1 combined Win32 extensions.


Selecting your Installation Type

You have two installation options:

•	Install ArcView for individual use - Use this option to install the ArcView software on your local machine. With this installation type, you will need to register the software in order to use the applications.

•	Install ArcView on a network - System administrators should use this option to set up the ArcView installation and make it available to other users. This installation type copies the ArcView files onto a network server.  With the network install, the software is not installed and cannot be run on the network server.  To install ArcView (Single Use) on individual computers from the network server, users will need to run the client setup program (SetupArcView.exe) from the network server and register their ArcView (Single Use) to run the applications.


Selecting ArcGIS Features for Installation

You have a series of choices to make when performing a custom installation. You can select and view properties of each feature as well as turn features on or off for installation. A software feature is a logical collection of functionality you can choose to install. A feature may consist of a collection of sub-features. An example feature is ArcObjects Developer Kit, which consists of a collection of sub-features such as Object Model Diagrams and Utilities.

Many features are a collection of sub-features.  Features consisting of sub-features will have a + or a - sign to their left.  The + sign will expand the feature so that you can view its collection of sub-features.  The - sign will collapse the list of sub-features.

To view sub-features and their feature description:

1.	To expand the feature and view its sub-features, click the + sign to the left of the feature name.

2. 	Highlight the feature or the sub-feature to view its feature description.

To turn a feature on for installation:

1. 	Click on the dropdown arrow to the left of the feature or sub-feature.

2. 	From the list select your installation option.  You have two installation options:

a.	 Will be installed on local hard drive.  Choose this option if you would like to install specific sub-features.

b. 	 Entire feature will be installed in local hard drive. Choose this option if you would like to install a main feature and all of its sub-features.

To turn a feature off for installation:

1. 	Click on the dropdown arrow to the left of the feature or sub-feature.

2. 	From the list select the following installation option:

 Entire feature will be unavailable. Choose this option if you want to turn this feature off for installation.


Using the Add/Remove Application

The ArcGIS Add/Remove Application provides two uninstall options:

•	Add/Remove - Use this option to choose individual ArcObjects Developer Kit components, to be added or removed from your machine. For example, to add Object Model Diagrams, select the Add/Remove option.

•	Remove All - Select this option to completely uninstall ArcObjects Developer Kit.


Using the License Editor

Use this license editor to manually enter or update your license information.

There are two situations where you will need to do this:

-	If you received your license file as a hardcopy via fax or mail. The license information must be entered exactly as it appears on the fax\mail you received.

-	Your license file is incorrect.  Use the Edit feature to correct any errors.

License file template

The license file template provided below will assist you in entering your license information.

To copy this template into the editor, select the text below, right-click, choose Copy, right-click in the Editor, and choose Paste. Then simply replace the xxx and the dd-mon-yy with the values in your license file.  You may have more than one FEATURE line in your license file. Remember to enter all the FEATURE lines in your license file. The \ character is the continuation character for the FEATURE line. You can include this character, or have the FEATURE line be one continuous line of text.

SERVER xxxx ESRI_SENTINEL_KEY=xxxxxxxx 27005

VENDOR ESRI

FEATURE xxxxxxx ESRI 8.x dd-mon-yy xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx \

  vendor_info="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" ck=xx

Upgrade Lines

Some license files may include an UPGRADE line.  An UPGRADE line promotes a specified number of licenses from an older software version to a new version. The UPGRADE line contains the corresponding FEATURE line, the number of licenses to be upgraded, version upgrade information, the time-out date, and the keycodes.

For example, if you have ten ArcInfo 7.2.1 licenses and upgrade five of these to ArcInfo 8.1 licenses. You will receive an UPGRADE line with 5 ArcInfo version 8.1 licenses. You will then have a total of ten ArcInfo licenses and of those ten licenses only five can be used for ArcInfo 8.1. In this situation, the UPGRADE line in your license file will look like this:

FEATURE ARC/INFO ESRI 7.21 01-jan-00 10 CBBEE04176902D99226D \

  vendor_info="TTH5AA36KF0HKZXZ6069" ck=30

UPGRADE ARC/INFO ESRI 7.21 8.01 01-jan-00 5 1BCEB001FF4626A7E161 \

  vendor_info="5ZXFFAJSYP9HR55BR086" ck=48

The number of licenses in an UPGRADE line will always be less than the number of licenses in the FEATURE line.

If you upgrade all of your existing licenses to a new version, you will only receive a new FEATURE line to replace the existing FEATURE line for the previous version of the software.  No upgrade line will be issued in this case.

** Note: Existing versions of the software (e.g., 7.2.1) will work with new FEATURE lines.


Selecting ArcGIS Features for Installation

You have a series of choices to make when performing a custom installation. You can select and view properties of each feature as well as turn features on or off for installation. A software feature is a logical collection of functionality you can choose to install. A feature may consist of a collection of sub-features. An example feature is ArcGIS Sample Maps, which consists of a collection of sub-features such as individual sample maps and their data.

Many features are a collection of sub-features.  Features consisting of sub-features will have a + or a - sign to their left.  The + sign will expand the feature so that you can view its collection of sub-features.  The - sign will collapse the list of sub-features.

To view sub-features and their feature description:

1.	To expand the feature and view its sub-features, click the + sign to the left of the feature name.

2. 	Highlight the feature or the sub-feature to view its feature 	description.

•	Remove All - Select this option to completely uninstall ArcGIS Sample Maps.


Selecting your Installation Type

You have three installation options:

•	Install ArcGIS for individual use - Use this option to install the ArcGIS software on your local machine. With this installation type you will need to install the license manager on your machine or point to an existing license manager on the network.

•	Install ArcGIS on a network - System administrators should use this option to set up the ArcGIS installation and make it available to other users. You will need to install the license manager on this machine prior to setting up the ArcGIS installation or point to an existing license manager on the network.  This installation type copies the ArcGIS files onto a network server.  With the network install, the software is not installed and cannot be run on the network server.  To install the ArcGIS Desktop on individual computers from the network server, users will need to run the client setup program (SetupArcGIS.exe) from the network server.

•	Install License Manager - A floating license manager allows copies of the software to be installed on numerous machines that point to a common (central) license manager.  The license manager, installed on your network, keeps track of the number of copies of the software that can be run simultaneously.  The same license manager can be used for other ESRI floating software products such as ArcInfo Workstation and ArcSDE. The software products that you purchase can be shared between many machines, providing more flexibility.


Installing the License Manager

The software products you purchase can be shared between many machines, providing more flexibility.

A floating license manager allows copies of the software to be installed on numerous machines.  The license manager, installed on your network, keeps track of the number of copies of the software that can be run simultaneously.  The same license manager can be used for other ESRI floating software products such as ArcInfo Workstation and ArcSDE.

You have three license manager installation options.

•	Install the License Manager - Select this option to start the license manager installation.

•	Browse for a License Manager on the Network - Select this option if you will be using an existing license manager on the network. This option requires a license manager to have been previously set up on a computer on your network server.

•	Setup the License Manager later - Select this option to skip the license manager installation at this time and proceed with the ArcGIS installation.  Before you can use the ArcGIS software, you will need to either install the license manager on your machine or point to an existing license manager on the network.  Use the Desktop Administrator to specify the name of the machine where your license manager is located. If only ArcInfo Workstation has been installed, the Desktop Administrator tool will not be available.

When you purchase floating software products from ESRI, you will receive a license file to use to setup your license manager. This file will contain the licenses to unlock the software products you are licensed to use.

Installation location

The ArcGIS 9.1 products, ArcGIS Engine Runtime, ArcGIS Engine Developer Kit, ArcGIS Desktop, ArcReader standalone, ArcGIS Server, and ArcGIS Server Developer Frameworks will install to the same installation directory. The first ArcGIS 9.1 product installed will determine the installation location for all subsequent ArcGIS 9.1 products.

NOTE: If you have ArcIMS ArcMap Server 9.1 already installed, ArcGIS 9.1 products will default to the ArcIMS installation location.

For example, if ArcGIS Desktop is installed to C:\Desktop, the installation location for ArcGIS 9.1 will be C:\Desktop\ArcGIS. If you install ArcGIS Server next, you will not be provided with the opportunity to browse to an installation location. The ArcGIS Desktop installation has predetermined the installation location for all ArcGIS 9.1 products. Therefore, in this example, ArcGIS Server will also be installed to C:\Desktop\ArcGIS.

If you run out of disk space while installing an ArcGIS 9.1 product, you will need to uninstall all ArcGIS 9.1 products (listed above) and reinstall them to a location where more disk space is available. ArcGIS 9.1 products (excluding ArcSDE, ArcIMS and ArcINFO Workstation) cannot be installed to different locations.


Installing Additional Installation Components

There are three additional installation components available for installation, ArcGIS Tutorial Data, ArcGIS Desktop Developer Kit and Crystal Reports version XI for ESRI.

•	ArcGIS Tutorial Data - Many of the users guides contain useful tutorials to help you learn ArcGIS. This install adds the data and map documents used in the ArcGIS tutorials. The ArcGIS Tutorial Data setup will not begin automatically. The ArcGIS installation will prompt you for the ArcGIS Tutorial Data CD or you will need to browse to the location of ArcGIS Tutorial Data setup program on your network.

If you do not choose to install ArcGIS Tutorial Data during the initial ArcGIS installation, you can start the ArcGIS Tutorial Data installation using the setup.exe located on the ArcGIS Tutorial Data CD.

•	ArcGIS Desktop Developer Kit - This installation includes resources such as developer help, tools, Object Model Diagrams and documentation to work with ArcObjects in your preferred development environment.  The ArcGIS Desktop Developer Kit setup will not begin automatically. The ArcGIS installation will prompt you for the ArcGIS Desktop Developer Kit CD or you will need to browse to the location of the ArcGIS Desktop Developer Kit setup program on your network.

If you do not choose to install ArcGIS Desktop Developer Kit during the initial ArcGIS installation, you can start the ArcGIS Desktop Developer Kit installation using the setup.exe located on the ArcGIS Desktop Developer Kit CD.

•	Crystal Reports version XI for ESRI - This installs the Crystal Reports software from Business Objects - a series of comprehensive, advanced tools for generating tabular reports. The Crystal Reports setup will not begin automatically. The ArcGIS installation will prompt you for the Crystal Reports CD or you will need to browse to the location of the Crystal Reports setup program on your network.

If you do not choose to install Crystal Reports during the initial ArcGIS installation,
you can start the Crystal Reports installation using the setup.exe located on the
Crystal Reports Version XI for ESRI CD.


Destination folder

The ArcGIS 9.1 products, ArcGIS Engine Runtime, ArcGIS Engine Developer Kit, ArcGIS Desktop, ArcReader standalone, ArcGIS Server, and ArcGIS Server Developer Frameworks will install to the same installation directory.
