Installing 1C:Enterprise platform

General information

The installer makes it possible to install multiple 1C:Enterprise versions on a single computer, select components to install, and choose a version of 1C:Enterprise server installation. 1C:Enterprise software modules are universal and compatible with any configuration. A security driver preventing unauthorized access is installed along with 1C:Enterprise.

Installation procedure

1C:Enterprise installation procedures for Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS operating systems are significantly different.

For Windows-based installations, a standalone installer is used. Depending on the rights of the user performing the installation, it can be performed in two modes: "for the computer" or "for the user". The installation mode is selected automatically:

  • Installation "for the computer". For installation, the system suggests using the %PROGRAMFILES% or %PROGRAMFILES(x86)% directory. To be able to use this installation mode, at least one of the following conditions must be fulfilled for the user performing the installation:
    • The user has local administrator rights on this computer.
    • The user is included into the local administrators group.
    • The user has a permission to install applications (the AlwaysInstallElevated registry key).
  • Installation "for the user". For installation, the system suggests using the %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs directory. This installation mode will be used if it is impossible to use the "for the computer" installation mode.

No such installer is available for Linux. For macOS-based installations, a standalone installer is used. It does not allow you to choose the components installed and is similar to Linux installer.

Before installation, please make sure that your computer is virus-free, the hard drive does not contain any errors, and enough disk space is available for the installation.

Available Windows installers

The following installers are available:

  • 1C:Enterprise 8  allows installing any components. 32-bit and 64-bit versions of this installer are available.
  • 1C:Enterprise 8 Thin client allows you to install only the thin client and the components required to access the 1C:Enterprise server. 32-bit and 64-bit versions of this installer are available.
  • 1C:Enterprise 8 (x86-64) allows you to install 64-bit 1C:Enterprise server. Only 64-bit version of this installer is available.

General information

To start the wizard, run setup.exe from the directory containing the distribution package you have selected. On every page of the wizard, you will be prompted to provide some information required for 1C:Enterprise installation.

Whenever setup.exe is started using /S, installation is made in silent mode. In this case, the installer determines the installation mode and gets installation parameters that correspond to the selected mode from the 1cestart.cfg file. If this file does not exist, the default settings will be applied instead. The system is installed according to the selected installation mode and installation settings.

Every wizard step is briefly described below. The examples describe installation of full 32-bit 1C:Enterprise distribution package.

This is the starting window of the 1C:Enterprise installation wizard.

If a component needs to be installed, select it in the list -  click an icon to the left of its name (or press spacebar).

The components to be installed or skipped are marked with specific icons.

Regardless of the 1C:Enterprise installation directory (the Folder: field and the Edit button), some directories of the installed system will have predefined locations. The installation directory depends on the installation mode and on whether the application you install and the operating system are 32-bit or 64-bit. By default, the installer selects the following directories (A.B.C.D  stands for the full number of the version you install):

  • Installation "for the computer":
    • 32-bit system in a 64-bit OS: %PROGRAMFILES(x86)%\1cv8\A.B.C.D.
    • In other cases: %PROGRAMFILES%\1cv8\A.B.C.D.
  • Installation "for the user":
    • 32-bit system in a 32-bit OS: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\1cv8\A.B.C.D.
    • 32-bit system in a 64-bit OS: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\1cv8_x86\A.B.C.D.
    • 64-bit system in a 64-bit OS: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\1cv8_x64\A.B.C.D.

At the next step, the installer prompts you to select the default interface language.

You need to specify one of the interface languages as a default interface language.

Installing 1C:Enterprise server

If the 1C:Enterprise 8 Server component is selected for installation, a wizard page will be available. On this page, you can select the 1C:Enterprise server installation mode and the user to run the server if it is installed as a Windows service.

mceclip4.png

If 1C:Enterprise is already installed as a Windows service on the computer, the installer will reinstall the service.

Installation start

Click Install to start the installation procedure that:

  • Creates the required directories
  • Copies files for the selected components
  • Creates configuration files
  • Registers server software components
  • Creates 1C:Enterprise startup shortcut on the desktop
  • Starts 1C:Enterprise server if you chose to install the server as a Windows service

mceclip5.png

In addition, a separate entry will be created in the Add or Remove Programs component of the Windows Control Panel for each 1C:Enterprise version. Example: 1C:Enterprise 8 (8.3.3.100).

Install protection driver

After the installation process is completed, the installation wizard prompts you to install HASP Device Driver to protect you from unauthorized software use.

mceclip6.png

Driver installation is required if a dongle is attached to the USB port of this computer and:

  • The user has License Agreement for the use of the 1C:Enterprise main distribution kit
  • The user has a 1C:Enterprise client license for at least one workplace
  • The user has a 1C:Enterprise server license

When installing the protection driver, a web-based driver management interface is installed automatically. To minimize risks and increase safety for 1C:Enterprise servers and user workstations, it is recommended that you disable the web-based protection driver interface when installing the driver. To do this, select the Disable 1C:Enterprise 8 dongle features that are not used (recommended) check box.

Installation completion

If the installation is successful, the final page of the installation wizard opens. Click Done to complete the installation.

If the Open Readme file check box was selected, a file containing information recommended for reading before using this version will be opened.

macOS Installer

Client application distribution package is stored in the disk image file for macOS (*.dmg files). The installer itself is “inside” the disk image. You cannot choose which components to install. Two distribution delivery options are available:

  1. To install thin and thick client applications, and 1C:Enterprise server cluster access components. Disk image has a name clientosx_A_B_C_D.dmg.
  2. To install thin client application and 1C:Enterprise server cluster access components. Disk image has a name thin.clientosx_A_B_C_D.dmg.

The A_B_C_D text in the image file name (and further, in the installer names) means the full version of the platform, the installer of which is located on the disk image file. The file with the installer distribution image for the thin client version 8.3.13.100 will be named thin.clientosx_8_3_13_100.dmg.

You need to know the name of the user with administrative privileges and the password to complete the installation. To start installation:

  • Double-click the image file. A new window with contents of the image file will open.
  • To install the client application itself, double-click the file named as follows
    • 1cv8-client-A.B.C.D.pkg  thin and thick client application installer.
    • 1cv8-thin-client-A.B.C.D.pkg  thin client application installer.
  • The client application installation wizard will open. On the first page, click Next; on the second page, click Install. After you enter credentials of a user with administrative rights, the 1C:Enterprise client application will be installed.
