Silently installing ArcGIS Web Adaptor

Installation requirements

The version of ArcGIS Web Adaptor must always match the version of your server site.

You can have a 10.2.1 or later version of ArcGIS Web Adaptor installed alongside an earlier version of ArcGIS Web Adaptor on the same machine. For example, you can have a 10.1 SP1 version and a 11.0 version of ArcGIS Web Adaptor installed on the same web server.

Each Web Adaptor must have its own unique name; you cannot have two Web Adaptors with the same name on a single web server. If a naming conflict is detected during the installation, a warning message is displayed. You must uninstall the earlier version with the same name to resolve the conflict. Alternatively, you can change the name of one Web Adaptor to proceed with the installation.

Legacy:

In earlier versions, ArcGIS Web Adaptor required Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 (SP1), 4.0, or 4.5 to be installed.

After ArcGIS Web Adaptor is installed, it must be configured. For more information, see Configuring ArcGIS Web Adaptor

Upgrade an earlier version of ArcGIS Web Adaptor

To upgrade an earlier version of ArcGIS Web Adaptor to 11.0, you must uninstall the earlier version, and install the 11.0 setup. During the 11.0 installation, you'll specify the same name as your earlier Web Adaptor. This guarantees your Web Adaptor URL will remain identical to the earlier version.

If a naming conflict is detected during the 11.0 installation, a warning message is displayed. You must uninstall the earlier version with the same name to perform the upgrade.

After installing 11.0, you must configure ArcGIS Web Adaptor with its corresponding server site.

Install ArcGIS Web Adaptor silently

The following are the Windows Installer command line parameters to be used when installing ArcGIS Web Adaptor silently:

  • ACCEPTEULA=yes

    This property is required to accept the End User License Agreement during a silent installation. Specify yes to agree to the EULA and install the software. Specifying no or omitting this property will result in a failed installation. The download contains a PDF version of the End User License Agreement (EULA). The EULA.pdf is located in the \Documentation folder.

  • INSTALLDIR=<installation location>

    This property allows you to specify the installation location of ArcGIS Web Adaptor from the command line. If you do not set this property, the default installation location of C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\WebAdaptor11.0\java\ is used.

    For example:

    <path to ArcGIS Web Adaptor (Java Platform) setup download>\setup.exe ACCEPTEULA=yes INSTALLDIR="C:\NewInstallDir" /qb

  • Use the following command to install ArcGIS Web Adaptor silently without specifying the installation location:

    <path to ArcGIS Web Adaptor (Java Platform) setup download>\setup.exe ACCEPTEULA=yes /qb

After ArcGIS Web Adaptor has been installed, it must be configured. For more information, see Configuring ArcGIS Web Adaptor.

Note:

After installation, ArcGIS Web Adaptor will display in the language specified by your Java application server. To change the language, consult the product documentation for your Java application server.
