INTRODUCTION

This article describes how to install ProClarity for Reporting Services (PRS) in ProClarity Analytics Server (PAS) 5.3.

MORE INFORMATION

To install PRS, the computer must have the following programs installed:

• ProClarity Desktop Professional 5.3 or ProClarity Web Professional 5.3
• Microsoft Report Designer 8.00.743.00

Note After you install PRS, the following files are updated:

• Global.asax
• Global.asax.cs
• Global.asax.resx
• PContentFrame.asp
• Proclarity.asp
• PRSQuery.asp

Therefore, you must perform a backup if you have made customizations for one or more of these files.

To install PRS, upload add-in components for Report Designer. Then, add some files to the PAS folder. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Insert the PRS CD into the CD drive.
2. Click Start, point to All Programs, point to ProClarity, and then click Analytics Server Administration Tool.
3. Expand the server, right-click Components, and then click New Component.
4. In the New Component dialog box, click Browse, and then open the "ProClarity for Reporting Services.xml" file.
   
   Note By default, the file is located in the Client folder on the PRS CD.
5. Click OK to upload the component.
6. If you have not installed the Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 on the PAS server, install the .NET Framework 1.1. To do this, run the Dotnetfx.exe file.
   
   Note By default, the file is located in the following folder on the PRS CD:

   PAS53Server\dotnet

7. Copy the following files from the PAS53Server\Commonfiles_server folder on the PRS CD:
   • Preportparser.dll
   • Preportparser.tlb
   • App.config

   Copy the files to the PAS folder. By default, the PAS folder is the following folder:

   C:\Program Files\Common Files\ProClarity\Server

8. Run the RegAsm.exe file to register the DLLs. To do this, follow these steps:
   1. At a command prompt, type the following command, and then press ENTER:

      CD \Program Files\Common Files\ProClarity\Server

   2. At the command prompt, type the following command:

      C:\WINNT\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\regasm.exe preportparser.dll /codebase /tlb:preportparser.tlb

      Note If you install PRS on a computer that is running Microsoft Windows XP, type the following command at the command prompt:

      C:\ WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\regasm.exe preportparser.dll /codebase /tlb:preportparser.tlb

   3. Press ENTER.
   4. Close the command prompt.
9. Copy the following files from the PAS53Server\PAS folder on the PRS CD to a PAS virtual directory:
   • Global.asax
   • Global.asax.cs
   • Global.asax.resx

   Note For example, the virtual directory may resemble the following folder:

   C:\inetpub\wwwroot\pas

10. Copy the following files from the PAS53Server\src folder on the PRS CD directory to each PAS language source folder:
    • PContentFrame.asp
    • Proclarity.asp
    • PRSQuery.asp

    Note For example, the language source folders may resemble the following folders:

    • C:\inetpub\wwwroot\pas\en\src
    • C:\inetpub\wwwroot\pas\de\src
