Note: You can install the Learning Management System Server and Delivery Server application files at the same time, even if you plan to deploy the applications to different machines. Since some of the settings are used for both the Learning Management System Server and Delivery Server (LDAP settings, for example), installing both applications together allows you to specify those settings only once.
Installing the Learning Management System Server application software
1.Start the Installer.
2.At the Language Selection Installer screen, select the language to be used by the Installer from the drop down list.
3.Click OK to continue.
4.At the Welcome screen, click Next.
5.Read the license agreement and click Accept if you agree to its terms. Translated versions of the IBM and Learning Management System license agreements are installed in the Learning Management System license subdirectory. Use any text viewer to read or print them in English or in the language configured on your machine.
Select the Learning Management System features to install
6.At the Features Screen, select the Learning Management System Server. The information you enter in the screens that follow is collected and written to a settings_init.sql file under the lmm directory of the destination folder.
7.Select the Authoring Tool and/or Utilities if so desired. The Authoring Tool zip file is copied to the authoring tool directory of the destination folder. All utilities are copied to the utilities directory of the destination folder.
8.Click Next to continue. You will now be shown the LDAP Settings screen.
Select the correct LDAP settings and test the LDAP connection
9.Enter the following LDAP Settings for your Learning Management System configuration:
•Provider URL – Enter the URL of the LDAP provider. An example setting would be: ldap://myserver.acme.com:389
•Base Distinguished Name – Enter the Base Distinguished Name of the LDAP provider, indicating the starting point for directory searches. An example setting would be: o=ibm (or, if the directory configuration includes the country, o=ibm,c=us). Learning Management System logins will not work if you do not include the country code in the Installer when the LDAP country attribute is used in directory entries.
•LDAP User ID – Enter the Distinguished Name (DN) of a user the Learning Management System Server can use to authenticate to the LDAP provider. This user must have at least read access to the portion of directory starting at the Base Distinguished Name. You may specify the Directory Server administrator (for example, cn=root) or another LDAP user.
