# Installation

The Deployment Template is distributed as a zip file named deploymentTemplate-[VERSION].zip.

Extract the zip file, using WinZip or an alternate decompression utility, into any location. The package will unpack into a self-contained directory structure tree:

    Endeca\Solutions\deploymentTemplate-[VERSION]\

Oracle recommends that you extract the ZIP file into the same directory as the Oracle Endeca software. For example, if you have installed Platform Services on Windows in to the following location:

    C:\Endeca\PlatformServices\6.1.2\

Extract the ZIP file in to C:\ so that the Deployment Template installs into:

    C:\Endeca\Solutions\deploymentTemplate-[VERSION]\

After installation, there are five directories - bin, conf, data, doc, and lib under the `deploymentTemplate-[VERSION]` directory.
