ConsoleOne is typically installed as part of a larger product, such as Novell eDirectory or NetWare. If this release of ConsoleOne hasn't been installed by a larger product, you can install it using the procedure below for your platform.
You can install and run ConsoleOne locally on a Windows workstation or server, or you can install it remotely on a NetWare or Windows server and run it through a mapped or shared drive pointing to that server. If you install locally on a workstation, other Novell products such as Novell eDirectory might not be able to add needed snap-ins to your installation. For this reason, we recommend a server installation.

Use this procedure to install ConsoleOne locally on a Windows server or workstation. To install ConsoleOne remotely on a NetWare server, see NetWare.
If a previous version of ConsoleOne is running on the Windows computer, exit it.
Insert the CD that contains ConsoleOne, or go to the Novell Product Downloads Site.
Browse the CD or Web site until you find the available ConsoleOne packages > select the package for Windows/NetWare.
HINT:If you are using a CD that runs an installation program and you see an option to install just ConsoleOne, choose that option and skip to Step 6.
If you are using the Web site, download and unzip the ConsoleOne files to a temporary area. If you are using a CD, skip this step.
Run the installation executable file (setup.exe or consoleone.exe).
Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the installation.
HINT:If you are installing on a Windows server and you will run ConsoleOne remotely through drive sharing, don't forget to share the folder where you install ConsoleOne. Some Novell products require that this share be established before running the installation program.
If ConsoleOne is installed locally on the Windows computer, simply double-click the ConsoleOne icon on the desktop.
If ConsoleOne is installed remotely on a NetWare or Windows server and you don't have a shortcut to that installation, do the following:
In Windows Explorer, find the mapped or shared drive that represents the server volume where ConsoleOne is installed > browse to the folder where ConsoleOne is installed.
By default, this is:
IMPORTANT:You must browse for ConsoleOne on a drive that is mapped to a letter, not a UNC path.
In the BIN subfolder, double-click consoleone.exe.
(Optional) For future use, create a shortcut on your desktop to the remote consoleone.exe file.
For help with navigating and performing basic tasks in ConsoleOne, see Administration Basics. If you encounter problems starting or using ConsoleOne, see Troubleshooting.
To make ConsoleOne accessible to Windows assistive technologies, you must install the Java Access Bridge. The Java Access Bridge is a technology used to expose the Java Accessibility API in a Windows DLL so that Windows assistive technologies can provide access to applications and applets running with a Java Virtual Machine running on a Windows system which implement the Java Accessibility API.
To set up the Java Access Bridge for use with ConsoleOne, follow these steps:
Download the Java Access Bridge from the Java Access Bridge Web site.
Unpack the Java Access Bridge into the c:\accessbridge-1_0 directory > run the following command:
c:\accessbridge-1_0\installer\install
For more information on installing and configuring the Java Access Bridge, see the Java Access Bridge Readme.
Place a copy of the following files in your novell\consoleone\1.2\consoleoneext directory:
jaccess-1_3.jar[lnbrk]access-bridge.jar
Place a copy of accessibility.properties in your novell\consoleone\1.2\jre\lib directory.
Copy the following files to your Windows DLL directory (for example, c:\winnt\system32 or c:\windows\system):
javaaccessbridge.dll[lnbrk]windowsaccessbridge.dll
If you install ConsoleOne on a NetWare server, you can run it locally on that server or remotely on a Windows computer with a drive mapped to that server. Installing ConsoleOne on a NetWare server also allows other Novell products such as eDirectory to add needed snap-ins to your installation.

Bring down Java and any Java applications that are running on the server, including the server GUI.
You can do this by entering JAVA -EXIT at the console prompt.
Have all users who are currently running ConsoleOne remotely through a connection to the server exit their ConsoleOne sessions.
At a Windows workstation, map a drive letter to the root of the server's SYS volume.
At the same workstation, insert the CD that contains ConsoleOne, or go to the Novell Free Downloads site.
Browse the CD or Web site until you find the available ConsoleOne packages > select the package for Windows/NetWare.
HINT:If you are using a CD that runs an installation program and you see an option to install just ConsoleOne, choose that option and skip to Step 8.
If you are using the Web site, download and unzip the ConsoleOne files to a temporary area. If you are using a CD, skip this step.
Run the installation executable file (setup.exe or consoleone.exe).
Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the installation. When you are prompted for the location to install to, select the drive that is mapped to the root of the server's SYS volume.
IMPORTANT:You must select a drive that is mapped to a letter, not a UNC path.
To start ConsoleOne locally on a NetWare server, enter C1START at the console prompt.
