Chapter 2 Installing Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Conferencing Release 5.3

How to Test the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Conferencing Release 5.3 Installation

If you chose Local Server as your SQL Server location, after the first reboot, the installer begins installing SQL Server. Status updates appear from the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace icon in your system tray, and when SQL Server installation completes, the server reboots automatically.

If the installer detects a local SQL Server installation, after the second reboot, the installer begins installing the SQL Server Service Pack. Status updates appear from the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace icon in your system tray. When the Service Pack installation completes, the server reboots automatically.

Installations of the SQL Server and the SQL Server Service Pack are slow, and depending on your server hardware, installations may take as long as 40 minutes or more to complete.

The Cisco Unified MeetingPlace icon appears as an orange door .

If the SQL Server installation appears to be taking too long (over 35 minutes), check your Task Manager to confirm that SQLInstall.exe is running.

After the server reboots, the installer invokes SQLInstall.exe to create the MPWEB SQL database. This process may take 5-to-10 minutes.

Step 8 Open the Gateway SIM eventlog to monitor Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Conferencing application activities.

Step 9 Proceed to the “How to Test the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Conferencing Release 5.3 Installation” section on page 2-12.
