Installing ABBYY FlexiCapture

Before purchasing the product, analyze your document processing needs and select either the local or the distributed version.

If you plan to process moderate amounts of documents (approximately 5,000 pages per day), employ one or two operators for the job, and do not require any sophisticated batch routing, then Standalone Installation is the best choice.

If you plan to automate data capture and processing, require sophisticated batch routing based on document or batch types, and need a scalable pool of centrally administered workstations, then select Distributed Installation.

Note: When installing the program under Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008 or newer operations systems, the UAC should be disabled before installation or the native administrator account must be used.

Important! The distributed and local versions cannot be installed on the same computer.

Standalone Installation

Installation methods

The following installation methods are available to install the standalone version of ABBYY FlexiCapture:

 manually (interactive installation)  from the command line

Interaction of the system components

The following figure displays the system component interaction for standalone installation:

If you have one license and several operator stations, then for connecting operator stations to the Licensing Server, the 10041 port has to be opened manually in Firewall settings.

Manual (interactive) installation

To install the standalone version of ABBYY FlexiCapture:

6

1. In the Autorun menu, select Standalone Installation (you can run the autorun.exe file manually).

2. Select a setup language. The setup program will compare the locale of your system and the selected lan-

guage. If the languages are incompatible, a warning message is displayed.

3. Next, the setup program checks the version of your operating system and the availability of the administrative permissions. If the version of the operating system is not supported by the program or you do not have the administrative permissions, a warning message is displayed and the setup program is terminated.

4. If all the checks are passed successfully, the end-user license agreement will be displayed. Read the license agreement carefully and if you agree with the terms of the agreement, select the corresponding option and click Next.

5. A dialog box will open prompting you to enter some information about yourself. Enter the required information and continue with the installation.

6. In the next dialog box, select one of the available installation modes:

 Administrator Station – The setup program installs the Administrator Station, FormDesigner, and

FlexiLayout Studio.

 Operator Station – The setup program installs only the Operator Station. (The Administrator Station,

FormDesigner and FlexiLayout Studio will not be installed).

 Administrator and Operator Stations – The setup program installs the Administrator Station, the Oper-

ator Station, FormDesigner and FlexiLayout Studio. By default this configuration is installed.

7. Next, select a destination folder. By default, the program is installed to %systemdrive%\Program Files\ABBYY FlexiCapture 11. If there is not enough space on the selected hard disk, a window is displayed

showing your hard disks, the available free space, and the space required by the installation. Select a disk with sufficient free space and continue with the installation.

8. The program files will be copied onto your computer. Once the installation is finished, the setup program will display a message saying that the application has been successfully installed.

9. License Manager will be launched automatically so that you can activate your serial number. See the “Man- aging Licenses” section for details.

Note: For information about configuring multiple workstations to work with a single license server, see Connecting

stations to the Licensing Server.”

Command line installation

In the default configuration, all recognition languages are installed on the local computer and the interface language is selected automatically based on the regional settings of the computer on which the program is installed. By default, the Administrator and Operator Stations installation mode will be selected (see above).

Run the setup.exe file located in the administrative installation folder using the command line options described below.

Advertise installation

For advertise installation, type Setup.exe /j The ABBYY FlexiCapture icon will appear in the Start menu. Clicking this icon automatically installs the program in

default configuration.

Silent installation

In the case of silent installation, no setup dialog boxes are displayed and the program is installed in default configuration.

Setup.exe /qn Change “/qn” to “/qb” if you want an installation progress bar to be displayed. No other dialog boxes will be displayed.

Additional command line options

/L<language code> disables auto selection of the interface language and installs the program with the interface language you specified.

The following language code values are available: 1033 English 1049 Russian

7

/V <command line> passes the specified command line directly to msiexec.exe. The <command line> string can be replaced with the following commands:

INSTALLDIR="<destination>" – the path to the folder where ABBYY FlexiCapture is to be installed. SETUPTYPE_CMD="<install mode>" – available installation modes.

The following modes are available: Full – Administrator and Operator Stations Admin – Administrator Station Operator – Operator Station Note: See the previous section for a description of the available installation modes. Example: Setup.exe /qn /L1049 /v INSTALLDIR="D:\FC11" SETUPTYPE_CMD=Full As a result, the Administrator and Operator Stations will be installed into D:\FC11, and Russian will be used the lan-

guage of the interface.

Removing ABBYY FlexiCapture in silent mode

msiexec /x {uninstall registry key}. The location of the uninstall registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall (the Product ID is in the name of the subkey with the product name in its values). You can also determine the Product ID by executing the following command in the command line: "wmic product where "Name like '%FlexiCapture%'" get Name, Version,

Other IIS components can be installed according to user preferences, e.g., perform a complete installation of IIS.

Installing the servers

Once you have made the preparations for installing the Application Server, install the servers. By default, all servers are installed on the same computer. However, you can install them on different computers by

disabling the redundant servers in the setup program. To install the ABBYY FlexiCapture servers:

1. In the Autorun menu, select Distributed Installation. Next, select Install Servers to start the installation.

2. Select a setup language. The setup program will compare the locale of your system and the selected lan-

guage. If the languages are incompatible, a warning message is displayed.

3. Next, the setup program checks the version of your operating system and the availability of the administrative permissions. If the version of the operating system is not supported by the program or you do not have the appropriate permissions, a warning message is displayed and the setup program is terminated.

4. If all the checks are passed successfully, the end-user license agreement will be displayed. Read the license agreement carefully and if you agree with the terms of the agreement, select the corresponding option and click Next.

5. A dialog box will open prompting you to enter some information about yourself. Enter the required information and continue with the installation.

6. Next, select the servers to install. You can also specify a destination folder. By default, the program is in- stalled to: %systemdrive%\Program Files (x86)\ABBYY FlexiCapture 11 Servers (%systemdrive%\Program Files\ABBYY FlexiCapture 11 Servers if 32-bit OS version is used).

 Processing Server – the server that controls the operation of the Processing Stations  Licensing Server – the server that stores and manages licenses. When you install servers on different

workstations, you must specify the address of this server or the Licensing Server in the format server, without \\ or http:// (or IP-address)

 Application Server – the server that controls the operation of the other components. When you install

servers on different workstations, you must specify the address of this server or the Application Server in the format server, without \\ or http://

 Web Stations – the Application Server components which allow operators to connect to the server and

work using a web-browser.

 FlexiCapture Authentication Module – the Application Server component which allows operators of

Web stations to register with the system and create requests for access rights to the Web station. Provides operators of Web stations with a single entry point into the system. By default, this feature is not installed. For more information on how to choose the authentication method, please refer to How to choose

the user authentication type.

 Stations Installer – selecting this option will copy the stations’ setup files onto the Application Server so

that you can then deploy them from the server. SMS and Active Directory deployment are supported. Once you select this component, you can specify the destination folder where to copy the setup files.

20

7. Next, the setup program will check if .Net Framework 4.0 (or 4.5, if running under Windows Server 2012) and

IIS are installed on your computer. If any of the components is missing on your computer, the setup program will display a warning message.

8. The program files will be copied onto your computer. Once the installation is finished, the setup program will display a message saying that the application has been successfully installed.

9. Once the installation is complete, License Manager will be launched automatically so that you can activate your serial number. See Managing Your Licenses for details. The Monitoring Station will also be launched, where you can set up the installed Application Server.

10. If you see an error message in the Administration and Monitoring Console, open the IIS Manager console (select Start -> Administrative Tools -> Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager) and check if IIS server and Default Web Site are running:

If the server is stopped, in the Manage Server menu, choose Start. Similarly, check whether Default Web Site is running.

IMPORTANT! The Application Server should be available on the Internet if you wish to use the remote stations over the Internet.

Removing ABBYY FlexiCapture servers in silent mode

msiexec /x {uninstall registry key}. The location of the uninstall registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall (the Product ID is in the name of the subkey with the product name in its values). You can also determine the Product ID by executing the following command in the command line: "wmic product where "Name like '%FlexiCapture%'" get Name, Version,

IdentifyingNumber".

External components required for the correct operation of the system

 iKey driver

This component is required if you plan to use a license stored on an iKey USB dongle manufactured by Rainbow. On a 64-bit operating system, you must install a 64-bit version of iKey driver manually. It can be installed by selecting Install External Components in the Autorun menu.

On 32-bit operating systems, no additional steps are required to install the iKey driver, as it will be installed automatically.

21

 CodeMeter runtime

This component is required if you plan to use a license stored on a CodeMeter USB dongle manufactured by Wibu-Systems. No additional steps are required to install the driver. Installation will be done automatically when the Licensing Server is installed.

 Microsoft Core XML Services (MSXML6)

This component is required for the operation of the Application Server. It is installed automatically.

 Crystal Reports

This component is used by the Administration and Monitoring Console to generate reports. Crystal Reports can be installed on the same computer where the Application Server is installed. Without this component, you will not be able to generate reports. However, all other Application Server management functionality will be available. ABBYY FlexiCapture supports Crystal Reports basic for Visual Studio .NET 2008 and Crystal Reports 2010. Crystal Reports is not installed automatically and should be installed manually. A 32-bit version of Crystal Reports basic for Visual Studio .NET 2008 can be installed by selecting Install External Components in the Autorun menu.

Note: Whether to install a 32- or 64-bit version of Crystal Reports is determined by the mode, in which the pool of the Administration and Monitoring Console is running in IIS (FlexiCapture 11 Monitoring). For details,

see “System components in IIS and their configuration.” By default the pool of Administration and Monitoring

Console runs in 32-bit mode. However, it can be transferred to 64-bit mode, which allows you to use Crystal Reports 64-bit. For details, see “Switching system components to 64-bit mode.”

If the bit does not match or Crystal Reports is not installed, the following error message will appear: A runtime error occurred:

CrystalReports loading failed Details: Description Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. Source mscorlib Stack trace at System.RuntimeTypeHandle.CreateInstance(RuntimeType type, Boolean publicOnly, Boolean noCheck, Boolean& canBeCached, RuntimeMethodHandle& ctor, Boolean& bNeedSecurityCheck) at System.RuntimeType.CreateInstanceSlow(Boolean publicOnly, Boolean fillCache) at System.RuntimeType.CreateInstanceImpl(Boolean publicOnly, Boolean skipVisibilityChecks, Boolean fillCache) at System.Activator.CreateInstance(Type type, Boolean nonPublic) at System.RuntimeType.CreateInstanceImpl(BindingFlags bindingAttr, Binder binder, Object[] args, CultureInfo culture, Object[] activationAttributes) at System.Activator.CreateInstance(Type type, BindingFlags bindingAttr, Binder binder, Object[] args, CultureInfo culture, Object[] activationAttributes) at System.Reflection.Assembly.CreateInstance(String typeName, Boolean ignoreCase, BindingFlags bindingAttr, Binder binder, Object[] args, CultureInfo culture, Object[] activationAttributes) at ReportManager.loadCrystalReports()

System components in IIS and their configuration

This section describes the IIS configuration which is required for the operation of FlexiCapture. This configuration is selected automatically when you install the program. However, if any errors occur, the information in this section may help you make sure that IIS is configured correctly.

Application pools

During the installation of the Application Server, the installer automatically adds three IIS application pools associated with ABBYY FlexiCapture 11. Application pools enable interaction with workflows bound to one or more applications and sharing data between them.

FlexiCapture 11 Monitoring – enables the operation of the Administration and Monitoring Console FlexiCapture 11 Web Services – enables the operation of the Application Server. FlexiCapture 11 Web Stations – enables the operation of the Web stations: Web Verification station, Web Data Veri-

fication station, and Web Capture station. All pools are configured automatically during the installation of ABBYY FlexiCapture. Pool settings critical for correct

operation of the Application Server, are listed below:

- .Net Framework Version = v4.0

22

- Managed Pipeline Mode = Integrated

- Identity = NetworkService

ABBYY FlexiCapture application pools work in 32-bit mode. In IIS Manager Console, you can check if 32-bit mode is enabled. For this, do the following:

1. Run the IIS Manager Console by selecting Start -> Administrative Tools -> Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager.

2. Choose Application Pools.

23

3. Choose a desired pool from the list. In the Actions menu, select Advanced Settings…

The value of Enable 32-Bit Application must be True. It means that the pool works in 32-bit mode. Besides, the installer adds the following applications to Default Web Site (the set of applications depends on the con-

figuration selected during the installation): Default Web Site\FlexiCapture11\Monitoring – the Administration and Monitoring Console

24

Default Web Site\FlexiCapture11\Server – the Application Server, in particular: Default Web Site\FlexiCapture11\Server\WebServices.dll – a web service of the Application Server which supports

both Windows and Basic authentication. Default Web Site\FlexiCapture11\Server\WebServicesExternal.dll – a web service of the Application Server which

supports authentication by means of the FlexiCapture Authentication Module (this will be added if FlexiCapture Authentication Module was selected during the installation of ABBYY FlexiCapture Servers).

Default Web Site\FlexiCapture11\Login – a Web-based interface for login and registration (this will be added if FlexiCapture Authentication Module was selected during the installation of ABBYY FlexiCapture Servers)

Default Web Site\FlexiCapture11\DataVerification – Web Data Verification Station (will be added if the Web Sta- tions component is selected during the installation of ABBYY FlexiCapture Servers)

Default Web Site\FlexiCapture11\Verification – Web Verification Station (this will be added if the Web Stations component is selected during the installation of ABBYY FlexiCapture Servers)

Default Web Site\FlexiCapture11\Scanning – Web Scanning Station (will be added if the Web Stations component is selected during the installation of ABBYY FlexiCapture Servers)

Default Web Site\FlexiCapture11\Capture – Web Capture Station (will be added if the Web Stations component is selected during the installation of ABBYY FlexiCapture Servers)

Authentication settings for FlexiCapture Web Applications

To control access to the applications via http protocol, it is necessary to configure authentication settings (login/password-based connection verification of a user’s identity). For this, choose a desired application and then choose the Authentication item.

Then select a required authentication method from the list and enable it.

25

To access ABBYY FlexiCapture applications, different authentication types are used: Windows authentication – a user tries to login to the server using the same credential under which the user browser

runs. (Using UTF-8-encoded characters in the user name and the password may be not supported.) To pass Windows authentication, the user must be either a local user of the computer or a user of the domain which includes this computer.

Basic authentication – login and password are transmitted over the network in clear text. To pass Windows authentication, the user must be either a local user of the computer or a user of the domain which includes this computer.

Anonymous authentication – the server does not require the client to transfer the credential. Users accessing the server operate under a special local account, that is, they are considered local users and are authenticated on their computers.

FlexiCapture Authentication Module (ABBYY FlexiCapture Authentication) – user name and password are passed the same way as when using Basic authentication, authentication is performed against a FlexiCapture data-

base which stores users’ logins and password hashes. To pass the authentication, it is necessary that the login and

password of the account match the login and password specified in the FlexiCapture database. This makes it possible to use logins and passwords which are not related to Windows user accounts.

By default, the FlexiCapture Authentication Module is not installed during the installation of servers. In this case, the following authentication settings are specified in IIS:

Default Web Site\FlexiCapture11\Monitoring (Administration and Monitoring Console) - only Windows authentication:

26

Default Web Site\FlexiCapture11\Server (Application Server) - both Windows authentication and Basic authentication are enabled:

27

Default Web Site\FlexiCapture11\DataVerification (Web Data Verification Station) - only Anonymous authentication is enabled:

Default Web Site\FlexiCapture11\Verification (Web Verification Station) - only Anonymous authentication is enabled.

Default Web Site\FlexiCapture11\Scanning (Web Scanning Station) - only Anonymous authentication is enabled. Default Web Site\FlexiCapture11\Capture (Web Capture Station) - only Anonymous authentication is enabled.

If the FlexiCapture Authentication Module was installed, the following authentication settings are specified in IIS: Default Web Site\FlexiCapture11\Monitoring (Administration and Monitoring Console) - only FlexiCapture authenti-

cation is enabled for this folder and all its files and subfolders, except for the Default Web Site\FlexiCapture11\Monitoring\DBConnection.aspx page, for which only Windows authentication is enabled, and for the Server folder. For all pages, except for the DBConnection.aspx page, redirecting to the Default Web Site\Login page is configured in the case of the HTTP 401 error, which enables automatic switching to the login page if the user cannot pass the FlexiCapture authentication.

Default Web Site\FlexiCapture11\Server (Application Server) - Windows, Basic, and FlexiCapture authentications are enabled for this folder and all its files and subfolder, except for the Default Web

Site\FlexiCapture11\Server\WebServices\External.dll file, for which only FlexiCapture authentication is enabled. Default Web Site\FlexiCapture11\Login (Web-based interface for logging on existing users or registering new users)

- only Anonymous authentication is enabled. Default Web Site\FlexiCapture11\DataVerification (Web Data Verification Station) - only Anonymous authentication

is enabled. Default Web Site\FlexiCapture11\Verification (Web Verification Station) - only Anonymous authentication is ena-

bled.

28

Default Web Site\FlexiCapture11\Scanning (Web Scanning Station) - only Anonymous authentication is enabled. Default Web Site\FlexiCapture11\Capture (Web Capture Station) - only Anonymous authentication is enabled.

Handler Mappings

In IIS services, handlers process requests to sites and applications. The handlers are mapped to resources on a web server and create responses to those requests. Like the modules, the handlers are implemented using native or managed components, such a dynamic DLL or managed code.

After the installation of ABBYY FlexiCapture Application Server, the installer performs the following actions:

1) Adds to IIS the mappings required for correct processing requests from the Application Server. These mappings can be view in the IIS Manager console. For this, select the Handler Mappings item for Default Web Site\FlexiCapture11\Server (the Application Server).

For correct operation of the Application Server, the installer creates a mapping “ABBYY FlexiCapture WebService”

with the following parameters:

Request path = “*.dll” Executable = ”C:\inetpub\wwwroot\FlexiCapture11\Server\WebServicesIsapi.dll”

29

Access = “Script”

Note: It may happen that a third-party application is installed on the same computer as the Application Server, and it can intercept requests of ABBYY FlexiCapture. In this case, the following error message will occur when starting the Administration and Monitoring console:

A runtime error occurred: Cannot get file storage path Details: Description Client found response content type of 'text/html; charset=utf-8', but expected 'text/xml'. The request failed

with the error message: -- Server Error in Application "DEFAULT WEB SITE/FLEXICAPTURE11/SERVER"Internet Information Services 7.5

To set the parameter value manually, choose the application in the applications tree, go to the Handler Mappings section, and choose the Edit Feature Permissions command from the Actions menu.

ISAPI and CGI Restrictions

The installer of FlexiCapture servers creates an allowance for the ISAPI-extension of the Application Server. To view the list of allowed ISAPI-extensions, at the upper level of the IIS Manager console (the level of IIS server)

select ISAPI and CGI Restrictions.

“FlexiCapture 11 Web Services” extension (path “C:\inetpub\wwwroot\FlexiCapture11\Server\IsapiLoader.dll”) must be allowed.
