Preface

This guide describes the tasks a system administrator performs to install the WebSDM and Empirica Study application, version 3.1.2.1.

Audience

This guide is for system administrators and database administrators who are familiar with Oracle relational databases and who host the WebSDM and Empirica Study application in their own environments, rather than contracting for this service from Oracle.

This guide assumes familiarity with administrative tasks, including setting up and configuring the Oracle database, administering IIS, configuring Windows Services, and setting Windows file permissions. Most of these steps are performed on the Windows 2003 or Windows 2008 server that hosts the WebSDM and Empirica Study software.


Note:

In the remainder of this guide, the product name WebSDM references both the WebSDM standalone product and WebSDM with the optional Empirica Study features that require additional licensing.

Using this Guide

Oracle recommends that you familiarize yourself with these procedures by reading all instructions before you begin the installation.

While the instructions provided in this guide are detailed, they are generic. This guide cannot, and is not intended to, cover all possible variations that might occur. An experienced administrator should read all instructions and be prepared to work through site-specific differences from the provided instructions.
