Toolpack Install Validation for Windows XP

Applies to version(s) v2.5 to v2.9

If any of those steps fails, refer to the Windows XP installation guide

File Validation

• Verify that the following files are located in C:\Windows\System32: iconv.dll libxml2.dll zlib1.dll

Software installation

• Verify that the following software is installed on the host: MySQL 5.1 Ruby 1.8.6 WinPCAP 4.0 (optional)

Mongrel Installation

• execute the following command: gem list --local

Result should contain: mongrel (1.1.5) A small fast HTTP library and server that runs Rails, Camping, Nitro and Iowa apps. json

MySQL Configuration

• Verify MySQL config file: C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\my.ini

Example, there should be a log-bin and server-id under mysqld: [mysqld] port=3306 basedir="C:/Program Files/MySQL/MySQL Server 5.1/" datadir="C:/Documents and Settings/All Users/Application Data/MySQL/MySQL Server 5.1/Data/" default-character-set=latin1 default-storage-engine=INNODB

1. Enable mysql database replication log-bin server-id=''[UniqueId]'' max_allowed_packet = 200MB

2. sql-mode="STRICT_TRANS_TABLES,NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER,NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION" max_connections=100

3. section [mysqld_safe] table_cache=256 tmp_table_size=18M thread_cache_size=8

   [mysqldump] max_allowed_packet = 200MB Note: server-id value may vary, but server-id needs to be a non-zero value and unique when using more than one host.

• Verify the state of the MySQL service in Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services

• If you are using McAfee Antivirus, make sure that the On Access Scan is disabled.
