4. Select the version you want to install (Full or Evaluation); then click Next.
5. Enter a serial number and license key, or accept the license agreement, depending on whether
the full or evaluation version is selected.
• Full version only: Type a valid serial number and license key.
The serial number and license key are verified at this time. If the serial number or license
key is invalid, an error message displays and you must re-enter them. You cannot continue
installing the full version without a valid serial number and license key.
• Evaluation version only: Accept the license agreement.
6. Click Next.
The Introduction dialog box displays.
7. Read the introduction; then click Next.
The Select Destination Folder dialog box displays.
8. Use the default location, or click Choose to select a new folder.
You can also type a new destination folder. The path must not contain spaces.
NOTE
This document uses <installdir> to indicate the folder where Fabric Manager is installed.
9. Click Next.
The Select FTP Server dialog box displays.
10. Select whether to use the built-in FTP server or your own external FTP server.
The built-in FTP server is always installed, regardless of which option you select. If you select
the external FTP server, the built-in FTP server is disabled.
After installation, you can change which FTP server to use at any time, as described in “File
transfer options configuration” on page 206.
11. Click Install.
Fabric Manager is installed on your machine.
The Please specify the port number dialog box displays.
12. Enter the Web server port number. The default is 80.
If you type a new Web server port number, make note of it; you must use the same port
number when you launch the Fabric Manager client. Do not use port 2638; it is used internally
by the Fabric Manager server.
13. Enter the starting port number. The default is 24600.
If the default starting port number is not a free port number, the server cannot start up
correctly. If you enter a new port number, you must ensure that it and the next nine port
numbers represent free ports.
NOTE
If you are upgrading or migrating from a previous version of Fabric Manager, you might receive
a message indicating that the ports are unavailable. This can occur when the ports have yet to
be released by the previous uninstall. You should wait a few minutes and try again.
