Installation requirements
AMADEUS does not deliver MSI (Microsoft System Installation) packages.
For installation we will use the AMADEUS Automatic Update system that will install and update / remove Selling Platform automatically.
Each workstation has to be installed manually with a CID (AMADEUS Certificate Identifier). The first installation must be done with “Power User” or “Administrator” rights. Please note that Automatic Update is installed as a Microsoft Service.
During the workstation deployment with Selling Platform, two applications are installed:
- The Selling Platform application is stored in the folder “C:\Program Files\Amadeus”
- The Automatic Update application is stored in the folder “C:\Program Files\Automatic Update”
The folder location cannot be changed.
We do local caching in the following folders
- “C:\Program Files\Automatic Update”
- “C:\Program Files\Amadeus”
- “C:\Document & Settings\%user%\Application data\amadeus”
- “C:\sgwlog” (only during installation phase, then the folder is removed)
- “C:\Windows\Downloaded program files”
We also use IE caching \cookies\user data persistence mechanism and we install Active X in “C:\Windows\Downloaded Program Files”
Registry
- “HKLM\software\amadeus\1aAutoUpdate” (created at install time, modified at startup)
- “HKLM\software\microsoft\windows\current version\run”
- “HKCU\software\amadeus” (modified at startup)
I.E. setup
Usual trusted sites to be able to run scripts\scriptlets\Active X
“*.amadeusvista.com” is automatically installed in the trusted sites when installing the Amadeus CID.
