Dr.Web for UNIX File Servers is distributed as an installation file nameddrweb-file-servers _<version>~<OS>_<platform>.run, where <version> is a line that contains the version and data of product release, <OS> - type of UNIX-like OS, and <platfrom> is a platform for which the product is intended (x86 for 32-bit platforms and amd64 for 64-bit platforms). For example:
drweb-file-servers_10.1.0.1-1409012000~linux_x86.run
Note that the installation file name corresponding to the above-mentioned format is referred to as <file_name>.run.
To install Dr.Web for UNIX File Servers components
1.If you do not have the installation file containing the universal package, download it from the official Doctor Web website: https://download.drweb.com/.
2.Save the installation file to the hard disk drive of the computer.
3.Allow the installation file to execute, for example, using the following command:
# chmod +x <file_name>.run
4.Execute the installation file using the following command:
# ./<file_name>.run
or use the standard file manager of the graphical shell for both changing file properties and running the file.
This runs an integrity check of the archive, after which the archived files are unpacked to a temporary directory and an install program is started. If the user does not have root privileges, the install program attempts to elevate its privileges and requires the root password (sudo is used). If the attempt fails, installation process aborts.
|
If the path to the temporary directory in the file system has not enough free space for the unpacked files, the installation process is aborted and an appropriate message is displayed. In this case, change the value of the TEMPDIR system environment variable so that it points to a directory with enough free space and repeat the installation. You can also use the --target option (for more details, see Custom Installation chapter). |
Depending on the environment where the distribution is started, one of the following installation programs runs:
•Installation Wizard for graphics mode
•Installer for command-line mode
At that, the installer for command-line mode is automatically started if the Installation Wizard for graphics mode fails to start.
5.Follow the prompts of the installer.
|
Note that if the used Linux distribution features SELinux, the installation process can be interrupted by the security subsystem. If such situation occurs, set SELinux to the (Permissive) mode. To do this, enter the following command: # setenforce 0 and restart the installer. After the installation completes, configure SELinux security policies to enable correct operation of anti-virus components of the solution. |
All unpacked installation files are deleted once the installation process completes.
After installation in the desktop graphical shell completes, the Dr.Web group is displayed on the application menu. This item contains item Remove Dr.Web components to delete the product.
If required, use custom installation of product components (for example, to resolve errors that occurred during Dr.Web for UNIX File Servers operation).
