QPR UI Installation Checklist

This QPR UI Installation Checklist contains all the steps needed for a complete QPR UI installation. These steps apply only for a new QPR UI installation. If you are upgrading an existing installation, see the upgrage instructions.

1. Check that your hardware and software infrastructure fulfills the system requirements for QPR UI.
2. Make the needed configurations for SQL Server containing QPR UI database. SQL Server configuration must be done before running the QPR UI installer.
3. Run the QPR UI installer. Settings in the wizard pages 6, 8, 9 and 10 can also be set after the installation, if needed information is not available during the installation. (For advanced scenarios, you can alternatively use the silent installation.)
4. Enable detailed error messages for IIS and configure IIS to pass through QPR UI traffic.
5. (Optional step) If using QPR Suite, it's recommended to install QPR Suite Reporting Add-on.
6. (Optional step) You can configure Common QPR Authentication, which enables to open QPR Suite portal from QPR UI and vice versa without a separate login.
7. (Optional step) You can configure federated authentication for QPR UI, if there is a federated authentication identity provider (IdP) available in your organization, such as Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS). This enables to use your organization's centralized user management system without managing user accounts separately in QPR products. Note that QPR UI is not compatible with the LDAP protocol.
8. (Optional step) If you need to change QPR UI system settings after the installation, you can find all settings here. Note that some settings are in GlassFish, such as database settings and GlassFish ports.
9. QPR UI installation is now ready! You can start QPR UI, and go through the tutorial how to create views and dashboards.
