VC6, the corresponding environment variable name is “MSDevDir”.
Visual Studio 2005 is the lowest version of the compiler that is supported by Windows Vista
and Windows 2008. For prior releases of Windows, such as XP and Windows 2003, it is
possible to install both VS 2005 and VC 6. But, only one compiler can be used at a time to
build the business function. You can switch between the two compilers by performing the
following steps:
1) Update JDE_CG section and environment variables for VC++6 and VC++ 8.0.
2) Configure the jde.ini file for VC++6 and VC++ 8.0, in both the deployment and
enterprise servers. For more information, see PeopleSoft EnterpriseOne System
Administration Guide, Understanding Workstation jde.ini Settings.
3) Set the value of VisualStudioVersion key either as 6 for VC++6 or 8 for VC++ 8.0 under the
JDE_CG section of jde.ini based on the requirement.
It is necessary to use the same version of the compiler on both the client and server to build
the business functions successfully.

Chapter 4: Windows Vista Client Adoption

The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Xe/8.0 windows client applications can run on Vista
operating system as Standard User with the 24.0.0 tools release. End users who perform the
development activities need administrative privileges on Vista machines. The latest
enhancements introduced in the 24.0.0 tools release facilitate the standard users to perform
the following activities:
• Run the business applications.
• Access jde.ini and log files.
• Submit the EnterpriseOne batch applications and Table conversions.
• Access and install sign-on packages.
• Use Solution Explorer and OneWorld Explorer.
This chapter discusses:
• Default Installation Location
• Symbolic Links
• New Data Directory
• Configuration
• Sign-on Package Installation
• Push Installer
• Windows Client
• Miscellaneous Utility

Default Installation Location

The user with administrative privileges can install JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Xe/8.0. The
default installation location of EnterpriseOne Xe/8.0 is changed from C: \<Install Directory>
to C:\Program Files\Jdedwards\<Install Directory>. The user can also install JD Edwards
EnterpriseOne in C:\B7, apart from the default location.
The default installation location is not applicable for users installing the update or sign-on
packages on EnterpriseOne Xe/8.0 windows client machines.

10
 The following table lists the changes in the installation location with reference to the change
in installation type:
Installation Type Installation Location
New Installation of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne By default, the user is prompted to install
Xe/8.0 on Windows Vista machine. EnterpriseOne on C:\Program Files\jdedwards\B7.
It is also possible to install it on C:\B7.

Installing Sign-on package on JD Edwards
EnterpriseOne Xe/8.0 installed Windows Vista
machine.
EnterpriseOne will remain installed on old location
itself without moving to the new location.
However, installer will create new folder named
jdedata and do necessary modification on system
to enable standard users to run EnterpriseOne on
Vista.

New installation of EnterpriseOne Xe/8.0 on By default the user will be prompted to install on
Windows XP machine. C:\Program Files\jdedwards\B7. It is also possible
for the user to install it on C:\B7.

Installing Sign-on package on EnterpriseOne Installer installs the update package at the same
Xe/8.0 installed Windows XP machine. location.

Symbolic Links
In Windows Vista, the standard users are restricted from access to certain locations, such as
C:\, C:\Program Files, and C:\Windows. EnterpriseOne has configuration files located in
restricted locations. The installer creates symbolic link for such files to make it accessible for
the standard users. The following table lists the symbolic links created during installation:
Symbolic Link Target File
C:\Windows\jde.ini <EnterpriseOneInstallDir>\jdedata\jde.ini

C:\ jdeapp.ddp <EnterpriseOneInstallDir>\jdedata\ jdeapp.ddp

C:\ jdeapp.xdp <EnterpriseOneInstallDir>\jdedata\jdeapp.xdp

C:\ jdeauth.dda <EnterpriseOneInstallDir>\jdedata\jdeauth.dda

C:\ jdeauth.xda <EnterpriseOneInstallDir>\jdedata\jdeauth.xda

C:\ jdemod.ddm <EnterpriseOneInstallDir>\jdedata\jdemod.ddm

C:\ jdemod.xdm <EnterpriseOneInstallDir>\jdedata\ jdemod.xdm

C:\ jdesec.dds <EnterpriseOneInstallDir>\jdedata\ jdesec.dds

C:\ jdesec.xds <EnterpriseOneInstallDir>\jdedata\ jdesec.xds

C:\jdeinst.html C:\users\public\documents\jdeinst.html

C:\jdeinst.log C:\users\public\documents\jdeinst.log

C:\Windows\fonts\Adobefnt06.lst <EnterpriseOneinstalldir>\jdedata\Adobefnt06.lst

11
New Data Directory
During the installation process, a new directory called “jdedata” is created within the
EnterpriseOne Installation Directory, EnterpriseOne InstallDir. This new directory is used
for storing configuration, licensing, and the log files.

Configuration
The CNC administrator needs to make the following configuration changes to enable the
standard user to run JD Edwards EnterpriseOne on Vista machines without administrative
authority:
1. Create new security group
A new Windows security group named E1Group is created during the 24.0.0 windows
client installation. This group has the necessary rights for running the EnterpriseOne
Xe/8.0 applications. The administrator can add standard users into this group so that they
can run the EnterpriseOne applications. Users who are members of the E1Group can run
EnterpriseOne without administrative privileges. It is possible to add users, domain users,
and domain groups to the E1Group. This is depicted in the following diagram:

The administrator has to list the user and group details under the E1GLOBALGROUP
section of install.inf of deployment server. These users will be added as member of the
E1Group during installation. The installer captures the user’s information from the
E1GLOBALGROUP section of install.inf file of the deployment server.
An example of how the values are specified in the E1GLOBALGROUP section of
install.inf file is given below:
[E1GlobalGroup]
E1Group1=<Domain>\Group1
E1Group2=<Domain>\Group2

12
 Note: On the fresh installation of EnterpriseOne Xe/8.0, users will not be able to run
EnterpriseOne without administrative privileges unless the administrator or the end user
logs off and logs back into the system. After the Client Workstation setup for JD Edwards
EnterpriseOne is completed, the system prompts the user to log off to complete the
installation process, as shown here:

2. Download Windows Help Update patch

The Windows Help program (WinHlp32.exe) is used for displaying the EnterpriseOne
help topics to the users. This program is not available with the Windows Vista operating
system. As per Microsoft’s policy, the Windows Help Update patch cannot be distributed
with JD Edwards EnterpriseOne. So, the administrator must download the Windows Help
update patch and stored it in the ThirdParty folder on deployment server. The Windows
Help Update patches for Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 are different and
have to be stored under different folder names, as shown below:
Operating System Folder Name
Windows Vista ThirdParty\Client\<downloaded file>

Windows Server 2008 ThirdParty\Server\<downloaded file>

You can download the corresponding Windows Help Update patch for client and server
from the following locations:
o Download details WinHlp32.exe for Windows Vista
o Download details WinHlp32.exe for Windows Server 2008
You can install Windows Help Update, which is stored in the ThirdParty folder during
the installation of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne:

13
Microsoft delivers different versions of patch for 64 bit and 32 bit operating systems. The
installer identifies whether the operating system is 32 bit or 64 bit and then runs the
corresponding executable from ThirdParty\<Client/Server> folder.
If Windows Help Update patch is not installed and the user tries to open the
EnterpriseOne help, then the following messages are displayed:

14
3. Enable E1Install Service
JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Xe/8.0 supports sign-on package installation. These packages
are provided by the administrator for installing some mandatory patches into the client
machine. A new install service named E1InstallService is introduced to support sign-on
package installation by a standard user. The administrator must add the following entry
under [File Locations] section of install.inf file on deployment server to enable
installation of E1InstallService on Vista or later OS:
OracleE1InstallService =<deployment server install
path>\E1ServiceInstallation,Setup.exe,/s
The installer reads the E1InstallService entry from install.inf of deployment server to get
the E1InstallService installer location.

15
Sign-On Package Installation
The process of sign-on package installation has changed for Vista or later operating system
(OS). InstallMonitor manages the installation of sign-on package for standard users. It detects
the OS and then queries the status of service from the service manager. If the Windows
service is running, then it reads the MandatoryInstallPort entry under the Install section of
jde.ini and tries to connect with the service at the given port or default port of 8552. After
establishing the connection, it sends the message for installing the required package.
E1InstallService runs the setup and updates the InstallMonitor with setup progress and setup
completion status.
This section discusses the updated installation process of sign-on packages of JD Edwards
EnterpriseOne on Windows Vista:
1. As the installation process is initialized, the system waits for the EnterpriseOne
application to exit and it displays the following message:

2. E1InstallService runs the setup with package information and updates the
InstallMonitor with setup progress and setup completion statuses. The following
message is displayed when the installation is in progress:

3. The user is notified about the success or failure of installation.

4. The Solution Explorer/OneWorld Explorer is launched after the successful
installation of sign-on package.

16
Push Installer
Push installation is the only deployment method that provides automatic and unattended
package deployment. Through this, the system administrator can deploy packages to a
workstation or group without requiring any action from workstation users. There are two
types of push installation:
• Network installation
• Local installation
Vista supports only Network type push installation. Administrator can select the Network
type push installation through the following window:

The installation location of Client Listener of the Push Installer is changed to make JD
Edwards EnterpriseOne Xe/8.0 compatible on Windows Vista machines. The default location
for the push install service is same as that of EnterpriseOne install location. That is,
C:\Program Files\jdedwards. It is also possible to change the installation location of push
install service, if required.

17
Only the end user with administrative privileges can run the Listener Monitor on Windows
Vista. The Listener Monitor is used for setting up the parameters used for push installation.
Administrators can initialize and run the Listener Monitor as given in the following
windows:

18
Windows Client
This section discusses the changes to the following:
• Solution Explorer and OneWorldExplorer
• Design Tools
• TypeAhead feature

Solution Explorer and OneWorldExplorer

A standard user can run both the OneWorldExplorer and SolutionExplorer executables on
Windows Vista. If a user, who is not a member of E1Group, tries to run the Solution
Explorer or OneWorldExplorer without admin privileges, then the system prompts that user
to elevate the process or exit. The system does not support a non-E1Group user to run the
EnterpriseOne processes without elevation; and the same will be prompted:

Design Tools
Only administrative users can run the design tool executables. If the Vista standard user tries
to run the design tool executable, then the system prompts a message accordingly. The
following window shows an example of the warning message that is displayed when the
standard user tries to run Form Design without administrative privileges:

It is recommended that the design tool executable files be run by an end user with
administrative privileges. However, the standard user, who is member of E1Group, can also
run the Design Tool.

19
 Trying to run the design tool executables by a standard user, who is not a part of E1Group,
will result in prompting the user to elevate or quit the application through the following
message:

TypeAhead Feature
Prior to 24.0.0, the TypeAhead.tae file was always located under the Windows directory. This
is a restricted location for standard user on Vista. The location of the file is changed from
Windows directory to <EnterpriseOneInstallDir>\jdedata directory on the Vista operating
system. The following table lists the location of TypeAhead.tae file for different operating
systems:
Operating System Location
Windows XP and Windows 2003 (Normal C:\Windows\TypeAhead.tae
mode)

Windows Vista <EnterpriseOneInstallDir>\jdedata\TypeAhead.tae

Windows 2003 (Terminal Server) and <UserProfileDir>\Windows\TypeAhead.tae

Windows 2008 (Terminal Server)

Miscellaneous Utility
A few changes have been introduced to the SnapShot utility. The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne
SnapShot application enables the administrator to install multiple versions of JD Edwards
EnterpriseOne on a single workstation. With SnapShot, administrator can rename the
installation directory and move executable files, security tables, jde.ini file, and registry
settings to the renamed directory. After the administrator renames the installation directory, it
is possible to install a new version of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne without overwriting the
previous version. It is also possible to switch between the versions without performing any
administrative tasks.
It is necessary to restore the SnapShot file to a true JD Edwards EnterpriseOne installation
before you can run the software from that installation. You cannot begin an instance of JD
Edwards EnterpriseOne from the SnapShot file.
Only an administrator can run Snapshot on Vista or higher operating system. If a standard
user tries to run SnapShot, then EnterpriseOne prompts the user to elevate or quit.

20
The E1Groups are created during the installation on Vista. The Save feature of SnapShot
renames the E1Group to E1Group_SnapshotName. On restoring the SnapShot, the
E1Group_SnapshotName is renamed to E1Group.

21
Chapter 5: Rebranding

Chapter 6: Configuration of WebSphere Portal

This chapter discusses the changes to the Collaborative Portal 6.0.1.1 Installation.

Collaborative Portal 6.0.1.1 Installation

WebSphere Portal 6.0.1.4 supports JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Collaborative Portal on 24.0.0
release. This is accomplished through some configuration changes for the WebSphere
Application Server (WAS) security:
The value of “com.ibm.SOAP.loginSource” is changed in the soap.client.props file. The
Collaborative Portal installation fails if the soap.client.props file is not updated. You must
locate “com.ibm.SOAP.loginSource” in the soap.client.props file and change
“com.ibm.SOAP.loginSource=prompt” to “com.ibm.SOAP.loginSource=”.
WAS security configuration details are required for the successful installation of
Collaborative Portal. Incomplete WAS security configuration prompts the user to enter user
ID and password.

29
