Installing the Fortify WebInspect Enterprise Server Software

Before installation, review FIPS or Non‑FIPS Compliance.

Install the Micro Focus Fortify WebInspect Enterprise server software on the server by running the Setup Wizard:

  1. Launch the WIE Server installation file.

    Note: If the wizard detects an earlier version of the Fortify WebInspect Enterprise server software, uninstall that version using Control Panel and then relaunch the installation file.

    The Welcome screen of the WebInspect Enterprise 21.1.0 Setup wizard appears.

  2. Click Next.

    The End‑User License Agreement window appears.

  3. Review the license agreement. If you accept it, select the check box and click Next; otherwise click Cancel.

    If you accept the license agreement, the Product Features window appears.

  4. On the Product Features window:

    1. Select the components you want to install.

      Micro Focus Fortify WebInspect can scan a website and export the scan results to a location called a “dropbox.” The Scan Uploader Service accesses each dropbox periodically and, if files exist, it uploads those files to the Fortify WebInspect Enterprise Manager. To install the Fortify WebInspect Enterprise Scan Uploader Service, click the associated x icon, and then in the drop‑down list click Will be installed on local hard drive.

    2. Accept the default location or click Browse to select the location where you want to install the software.

    3. Click Next.

      The Ready to install WebInspect Enterprise 21.1.0 window appears.

  5. When you are ready to install, click Install.

    Fortify WebInspect Enterprise software is installed on the computer and the Setup Wizard completes.

  6. Click Finish.
