Before you run the automated installer, be sure to:
Before installing or upgrading, shut down any Management and Security Server component that is currently running. (If you installed an earlier version with an automated installer, the automated installer will close the components for you.)
On Windows. If you install servers on a Windows workstation, the installer must be launched by a user who is an Administrator with administrative privileges. Note that applications run by administrators are run with standard user permissions unless the user specifically authorizes the application to use more elevated privileges.
On Linux or UNIX. If you are installing on a Linux or UNIX platform, the installer must be launched by a user with root privileges. If you cannot obtain elevated privileges, you may need to use a manual installation process.
If the MSSData directory (which stores site-specific content) must be installed to a non-default location, see Appendix B: Specifying a non-default location for MSSData.
Make sure that you have the necessary account permissions to install components on the target server.
If you plan to use X.509 client certificates or secure LDAP access control, the account used to run the Administrative Server must have permission to write to the Java certificate authority certificates file (cacerts).
The default Windows location is
C:\Program Files\Micro Focus\ MSS\jre\lib\security
