For a list of the minimum hardware and software configurations required to successfully operate CPS, see http://www. adobe. com/products/contribute/productinfo/systemreqs/. Installing Contribute Publishing Server by using the Simple Installation The Simple Installation for CPS enables you to install a preconfigured Java application server that includes CPS. This installation is recommended if you don't have an existing Java application server.
To install CPS by using the Simple Installation (Windows):
1. Read and accept the license agreement to continue with the installation. In the Installation Method screen, select the Simple Installation option. Accept the default installation location or click Choose to select another location.
The default location is: C:/Program Files/Macromedia/Contribute Publishing Server
6. When prompted, enter an administrative password to restrict access to the CPS Console.
Tip: This is not the same password used to protect the Contribute administrator role, so you might want to make a note of it.
7. Review the Summary screen, and then click Install when you are ready to begin the installation.
The installer writes folders and files to the installation folder. CPS installs as a Windows Service and automatically starts.
Note: The Contribute Publishing Server/jrun4 directory contains the JRun 4 application server and a deployed version of CPS.
8. In the Installation Complete screen, click Done to close the installer window.
The CPS Console launches in a browser. The browser probably displays a security warming, because the CPS installer created a self-signed certificate for the server. The certificate is used to create a secure connection, and self-signed certificates are not verified by a third-party so you always need to accept them.
Note: The CPS Console requires that you have Flash Player 7 installed on your computer.
9. Accept the certificate.
Tip: You might want to permanently accept the certificate, if you can. Otherwise, you might be prompted to accept the certificate each time you launch the CPS Console.
The CPS Console Login dialog box appears.

10. Enter the password you created during the installation process.
The CPS Console appears for you to configure CPS. For information, see "Configuring Contribute Publishing Server (CPS only)" on page 48.
Tip: In the future, you can access the CPS Console by selecting Start > Programs > Adobe Contribute Publishing Server > Administer Macromedia Contribute Publishing Server. At a command prompt, enter the following command to set execute permissions for the JRun
installation shell script:
chmod +x pubserver-linux. bin Note: If you are installing on the SolarisTM platform, substitute solaris for linux in the command.
3. Enter the following command to run the JRun installation script:
sh . /pubserver-linux. bin Note: If you are installing on the Solaris platform, substitute solaris for linux in the command.
The installer extracts the installation files, and then runs the install script.
4. View each screen of the license agreement, and then accept the agreement to continue with the
installation.
5. In the Installation Method screen, select the Simple Installation option. In the Installation Folder screen accept the default installation location or enter another
location.
7. [. . . ] Go to the Packages node in the SMS console, right-click Programs, and then select New/
Program. To enter the command line in the Command Line text box, click Browse and navigate to locate
the installation folder.
9. Type one of the following commands to run the installer:
To run the installer by using the msiexec program (Typical Install), enter the following command:
MSIEXEC /I "<PATH>Adobe Contribute 4. msi" /passive /norestart /log <Path for the Log file and log file name>. log Note: Use the Typical Install option only if all the client computers have the MSI 2. 0 engine installed.
