SLA Platform installer properties

A table of the Windows installer properties for the SLA Platform installer.

Warning

1E Server Setup is the only supported method of installing, upgrading, and patching a 1E server.

Installation using standalone msi or msp files is not supported unless advised by 1E, which may be necessary in complex installations, using non-interactive (quiet/silent) command-lines, and may require further post-install configuration steps.

Note

Mandatory properties must be provided when installing using a command-line. The table shows which default values are managed by 1E Setup

The installer file is: SLA.Platform.Installer.msi

Description

CATALOG_DATABASE_NAME

1ECatalog

No

The name of the 1E Catalog database.

CATALOG_DATABASE_SERVER

Yes

The SQL Server instance name which hosts the 1E Catalog database.

Note

1E Setup prompts for the SQL Server database instance.

CATALOG_DATABASE_USEINTEGRATEDSECURITY

1

No

Determines which method the SLA Platform services and application pools will acess the 1E Catalog database

  • 1 - Windows authentication uses the specified SVC_USEACCOUNT service account

  • 0 - SQL authentication uses the specified SQL Login

The SLA Platform uses a Linked Server on the SQL Server instance that hosts the SLA Platform databases, to access the 1E Catalog database.

The SLA Platform also connects to the Catalog API, which it finds by reading the CatalogSettings table in the 1E Catalog database.

Note

1E Setup uses 1: Windows authentication.

COMMON_DATABASE_SERVER

Yes

The SQL Server instance name which will host the four SLA Platform databases.

Warning

Do not specify (local) even if the SQL Server instance is local. This avoids issues with Linked servers used by SLA Platform and companion products.

Note

DROPOLDDB is not supported. If you want to create new databases then manually drop the old ones first, after backing them up.

Note

1E Setup prompts for the name of the SQL Server instance.

COMMON_DATABASE_USEINTEGRATEDSECURITY

1

No

Determines which method the SLA Platform services and application pools will acess the SLA Platform databases

  • 1 - Windows authentication uses the specified SVC_USEACCOUNT service account

  • 0 - SQL authentication uses the specified SQL Login

Note

1E Setup uses 1: Windows authentication.

CUSTOMER_USERNAME

The installer account

No

The default web user.

  • Must be a domain user account

  • Normally the same as the Installer account

  • Specified in the Customization Settings panel in the SLA Platform installer (not available in 1E Setup)

  • This is the only account that can be used when first logging into the SLA Platform website, until the account is used to create additional users

Warning

The Domain part of the username will restrict access to SLA Platform to just users from that domain.

See Server installation account

Note

1E Setup uses the default: the installer account.

IIS_HOST_HEADER

Host header used for the HTTP binding of the SLA Platform website.

Note

See HTTP binding note below.

Note

1E Setup uses the same HTTP host header as the Tachyon website, which defaults to the servername FQDN.

IIS_HTTP_PORT

8080

No

Port used for the HTTP binding of the SLA Platform Website.

Note

See HTTP binding note below.

Note

1E Setup uses the same HTTP port as the Tachyon website, which defaults to 80. This causes the SLA Platform web applications to be installed under the Tachyon website.

IIS_HTTPS_PORT

8443

No

Port used for the HTTPS binding of the SLA Platform website. Used only if SLA_ENABLE_HTTPS=1.

Note

See HTTPS binding note below.

Note

1E Setup uses the same HTTPS port as the Tachyon website, which defaults to 443. This causes the SLA Platform web applications to be installed under the Tachyon website.

IIS_IP_ADDRESS

*

No

IP address used for the HTTP binding of the SLA Platform website.

If you want to be non-specific about the IP address, use the default *.

Note

See HTTP binding note below.

No

Website name. Not configurable in the installer UI.

Note

1E Setup does not use this as it expects the SLA Platform will be installed under the Tachyon website.

HTTP binding

If an existing website uses the same HTTP binding (combination of HTTP port, host header and IP address) then the SLA Platform web applications will be created under that website instead of under a dedicated website called SLA Platform Web Site.

HTTPS binding

When doing a non-interactive install, an HTTPS binding is created only if all of the following are specified:

  • SLA_ENABLE_HTTPS=1

  • IIS_SSL_CERTIFICATE_SERIAL

  • IIS_SSL_CERTIFICATE_THUMBPRINT
