Installing Zend Server on Windows

This section describes the procedure for installing Zend Server for IBMi on Windows.

To run Zend Server for IBMi on Windows, you need the following:

Generally, you should install Zend Server for IBMi on Windows using an account that has administrator rights. Otherwise, you may encounter problems with certain operations such as editing the PATH environment variable or accessing the Service Control Manager.
Enough space on the hard drive to unpack and install (generally a minimum of 200 megabytes is recommended.)

Zend Server for IBMi for Windows is available in a binary distribution that contains a setup program .exe file. The .exe file installs everything you need to start using Zend Server immediately.

Note:

After installing Zend Server 8.0, you will automatically be using a 30-day Enterprise edition trial license. To continue working with Zend Server after this time period, contact Zend for a new license. For more information on Zend Serve editions, see Zend Server Editions.

IIS Note:

The default installation of IIS does not have the URL rewrite capabilities. While Zend Server itself does not require such capabilities, you may want to take advantage of it in the applications that you run in Zend Server (for example, when using Zend Framework based applications that use the default MVC components). In this case, refer to this topic.
