Installing Replication Server on Windows v7

Replication Server doesn't support JRE installations with 32-bit.

Installing directly

After downloading the graphical installer, to start the installation wizard, assume sufficient privileges (superuser or administrator) and double-click the installer icon. If prompted, provide a password.

In some versions of Windows, to invoke the installer with administrator privileges, you need to right-click the installer icon and select Run as Administrator from the context menu.

Proceed to Using the graphical installer.

Using Stack Builder or StackBuilder Plus

1. In Stack Builder, follow the prompts until you get to the module selection page.

2. Expand the Registration-required and trial products node.

3. Expand the EnterpriseDB Tools node and select Replication Server.

4. Proceed to Using the graphical installer.

If you're using EDB Postgres Advanced Server, you can invoke the graphical installer with StackBuilder Plus. See Using StackBuilder Plus.

2. Expand the EnterpriseDB Tools node and select Replication Server.

3. Proceed to Using the graphical installer.

Using the graphical installer

1. Select the installation language and select OK.

2. On the Setup Replication Server page, select Next.

   Note

   From this point on, we suggest you record the values you enter as you need them during the publication and subscription server registration process.

   Enter values for the following fields:

   • Admin User — The Replication Server administrator user name needed to authenticate some Replication Server actions, such as registering a publication server or subscription server running on this host. You can enter any alphanumeric string for the admin user name. The default admin user name is admin.

   • Admin Password — Password of your choice for the Replication Server administrator.

   The admin user and the admin password (in encrypted form) are saved to the XDB_HOME\etc\edb-repl.conf configuration file. Select Next.

7. If a publication server is being installed, enter an available port on which the publication server can run. The default port number is 9051. Select Next.

8. If a subscription server is being installed, enter an available port on which the subscription server can run. The default port number is 9052. Select Next.

9. If you're using EDB Postgres Advanced Server installed in Oracle-compatible configuration mode, enter postgres or enterprisedb for the operating system account under which the publication server or subscription server runs.

10. On the Ready to Install page, select Next.

    An information box shows the installation progress of the selected components. This might take a few minutes.

11. When the installation is complete, select Finish.

Successful installation of Replication Server results in the creation of directory structures and files in your host environment as described in Installation details. Verify that the path to your Java runtime program set in XDB_HOME\etc\edb-repl.conf is correct.
