Installing, configuring, and deploying LiveCycle involves
the following processes:
Installing: Install LiveCycle by running the installation
program. Installing LiveCycle places all of the required files onto
your computer, within one installation directory structure. The
default installation directory is C:\Adobe\Adobe LiveCycle ES4 (Windows)
or /opt/adobe/adobe_livecycle_es4 (non-windows); however, you can
install the files to a different directory.
Configuring: Configuring LiveCycle modifies various
settings that determine how LiveCycle works. Assembling the product
places all of the installed components into several deployable EAR
and JAR files, according to your configuration instructions. Configure
and assemble the components for deployment by running Configuration
Manager. You can configure and assemble multiple LiveCycle modules
at the same time.
Deploying: Deploying the product involves deploying
the assembled EAR files and supporting files to your application
server on which you plan to run your LiveCycle. If you have configured
multiple modules, the deployable components are packaged within
the deployable EAR files. Components and LiveCycle archive files
are packaged as JAR files. Note: LiveCycle archive file use .lca
file extension.
Initializing the LiveCycle database: Initializing
the database to be used with LiveCycle creates tables for use with
User Management and other components. Deploying any module that
connects to the LiveCycle database requires you to initialize the
LiveCycle database after the deployment process.
Before you begin to install and configure LiveCycle, ensure that
you have prepared your environment as described in the applicable
Preparing guides.
