Before you run the Initial Configuration Utility, these conditions must be in place:
Make sure the earlier version of the software is not running.
Doing so will avoid potential port conflicts and allow you to accept default port assignments.
If you are upgrading a Linux or UNIX system, make sure that no startup scripts are running.
Verify that you have administrator privileges. If not, you will be prompted for credentials.
Uninstall the services, such as the MSS Server and MSS SecurityProxy.
Be sure the scripts are executable by running this command:
chmod +x InitialConfigurationUtility
In the mss/server/conf/container.properties file, change the dataFolder property to a folder where the current user has write access.
Go to the mss/utilities/bin directory, and run the Initial Configuration Utility in console mode with the –c parameter.
On Windows: InitialConfigurationUtililty.exe
On Linux or UNIX: InitialConfigurationUtililty
