It is recommended that you create a user named <b>extraview<\/b> on your computer for these tasks. The documentation will reference this user. The procedure will guide you through the installation of the following components:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n\t\tJava JDK or JRE<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\tApache Web Server<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\tTomcat Application Server<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\tExtraView application<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\tPerl and supporting modules<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\tExtraView schema and initial database<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Once the application is installed, you should start ExtraView and set some specific behavior settings to ensure that you can then begin to configure ExtraView for your organization. The standard ExtraView implementation has a default set of defined fields with a default set of layouts for adding and updating issues, as well as a set of default layouts for searching and reporting.<\/p>\n<p class=\"textGreyBg\">Note: See the ExtraView Administration Guide for initial default specifications and the initial settings of behavior settings.<\/p>\n<h3>\n\tConventions<\/h3>\n<p>Throughout the installation steps you should be careful to substitute your own values for the following path and file names. It is also possible that other path names shown will be different on your target hardware. ExtraView expects that the experienced System Administrator will be able to recognize changes that may need to be made in the example scripts. If you are in any doubt, please contact ExtraView for support. It is best to make any decisions before beginning the installation process if you want to change any of the following:<\/p>\n<table class=\"tableWithBorder\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\">\n\t\t\t\t<code>\/usr\/local\/extraview\/install<\/code><\/td>\n<td>\n\t\t\t\tTemporary directory to hold the staging scripts and code.
