1 System Requirements
For the installation of Wise Package Studio there are several specific requirements. Some of
these requirements depend on the amount of applications that need to be repackaged.
• There is a server with enough harddisk space for Wise Package Studio;
• There is a server with enough internal memory for Wise Package Studio;
• The Operating System is already installed on the Wise Package Studio server;
• All license codes for Wise Package Studio v5.1 are available.
• A complete packaging environment is installed, with:
o Domain controllers;
o An image for the clients;
o All applicable policies;
o File- and/or printservers;
o A server with the distribution tool installed;
1.2 Hardware
The application depends on a SQL Server that is installed. This installation can reside on the
Wise Package Studio server, or it is possible to reside the databases on a server that already
has SQL Server installed. In the database, 2 to 4 MB of storage per each application is
sufficient. Only string information, such as registry keys and values, and file names are stored
in the database. This would need to be multiplied by the number of expected applications.
For Example, if there were 500 applications, a 2 GB drive would actually be sufficient for SQL.
Depending on the size of each application, it is possible that some will require approx 1/2 GB,
for such large applications as MS-Office, MS-Visio, Visual Studio editions, Oracle, and so on.
Some applications will require 10 or 20 MB, such as WinZip or Adobe Reader. Assume an
image of the manufacturer’s distribution method (such as CD) will be duplicated on the
sharepoint’s drive plus the .MSI file that will be created from repackaging.
If the installation source is also copied to the sharepoint directory this increases the size
needed.
1.2.3 Memory
Wise Package Studio doesn’t need that much memory to run, but the SQL Server and
databases do. As much as 1,5 GB of memory can be in use by the SQL Server.
1.3 Software
• SQL Server;
• MS Access Database.
Because there is al lot of data imported in the databases, it is strongly recommended to use
SQL Server, instead of the Microsoft Data Engine (MSDE) or MS Access.
Because SQL Server is strongly recommended, the operating system must be one from the
server platform. SQL Server will not install on the following Operating Systems:
• MS Windows XP;
• MS Windows 2000 Professional;
• MS Windows 9x.
So run the SQL Client Tools executable and follow the procedure outlined below.
Click on “Ok”.

16 The configuration of
Wise Package Studio is
taking place.
This is a repeat of step 3.2, this time the Merge Modules get copied to your local machine.
They are available from the P:\Wise Share Point\Merge Modules. Copy them down to your
packaging machine and place in the folder “D:\Wise Share Point\Merge Modules”
4.1 Requirements
The test machine must be a clean build, just the basic XP SP2. This will give the best results
when carrying out remote setup captures and is less likely of picking up unwanted system
components.
As we have wise already installed on SQL server we can map back to the two required shares.
Click on “Next”.

entered, click on “Next”.

recommended to create
a Virtual OS file.
Click on “Next”.
The MSI template can be found on the P:\Wise Share Point\Templates. Copy it down to
D:\Wise Share Point\Templates on your packaging machine.
Note: For every new package created you must remember to generate a new package code.
Otherwise a conflict may occur between packages.

This configuration
makes sure that
everything is generated
automatically and that
the application is
imported in the
ConflictManager under a
normal display
structure.
The SOE (Standard Operating Environment) file must be imported in the Software Manager
and the ConflictManager, for conflict management. This makes sure that all applications are
checked against the OS.
