EDT Third-Party Components Installation Guide

Quick StartThe Installation Process In a

Nutshell

Installation sequence of events is VERY IMPORTANT, and MUST be done

in the following order:

1.

First, uninstall your existing LAM before installing the 5000.1

releasethere is new FLEXlm licensing for 5000.0.0 and higher
releases. 5000 LAM will not coexist on the same machine with
existing 2003 LAM.

2.

Next, you must run the Third-Party installation. If you do not

install this first, errors will occur. Reboot.

3.

Next, run the EDM installation. Reboot. (EDM must be installed

before Drilling & Completions applications, or certain services,
such as Reporting, will not register correctly.)

4.

Finally, run the Drilling & Completions installation.

5.

If you have an existing EDM database 2003.14 or higher, it must

be upgraded to 5000.1. The new Multi-Version Database Upgrade
Utility (EDMPatchDB.exe) will upgrade your 2003.14 or higher
database to 5000.1. If your database version is earlier than
2003.14, refer to the EDM Drilling Database Guide for
instructions.

Note: Manuals in PDF format that contain details of these procedures

are in the EDT_Documentation.ZIP file included with the software
download from Landmark Software Manager.
Details of the Third-Party installation are in following sections, but this
is the mandatory sequence of events.

Pre-requisites
Engineers Desktop 5000.1 requires that certain steps be taken prior to
running the Third Party Components installation. The following
checklist outlines these pre-requisites.
1.

Upgrade the Operating System, if necessary. For both Windows

XP and Windows 2003 Server, Service Pack 2 must be installed.

2.

Before installing products you must install Adobe Acrobat

Reader to read the available documentation.

3.

Uninstall any existing LAM older than 5000. LAM 2003 will not
co-exist on the same machine with LAM 5000.

4.

The Third-Party Components Installation must be completed

prior to running the Engineers Desktop EDM 5000.1 installation.
Without the Third-Party Components, Drilling & Completions
applications will not run.

5.

The Engineers Desktop EDM 5000.1 installation should be

completed prior to running the Drilling & Completions install.

6.

Migrate or update existing databases. See the accompanying

document EDM Drilling Database Guide
(EDM_Drilling_Databse.pdf) and EDM Drilling Data Migration
Guide (EDM_Drilling_DataMigration.pdf) Planning the EDT
Installation (EDT_PlanningInstall.pdf).

7.

Obtain licensing or bitlock from Landmark.

Once these prerequisites have been met, the Third-Party Components

installation can be started.

About the Third Party Components

A number of third-party applications must be installed prior to
installing EDM or the Drilling & Completions applications. If ThirdParty Components have not been installed, the Engineers Desktop
5000.1 installation will not continue. Failure to install these
applications prior to running the EDM Database and applications will
cause problems when using the database, applications, and tools.
The major third-party applications are discussed below.

Microsoft Data Access Components 2.8 (MDAC)

MDAC supplies the database drivers that are certified to use with the
Engineers Desktop. Landmark does not support the use of any other
driver versions.

Crystal Reports 11.5

Crystal Reports 11.5 is the runtime component that is used by the
Engineers Desktop Output Reporting engine. This component is
required by OpenWells, PROFILE, WELLPLAN, COMPASS, Well
Cost, EDM Publishing Service, and iWellFile.

Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0

The .NET Framework provides an execution environment for various
Engineers Desktop applications and services (e.g., EDM Services
Controller, EDM Publishing Service, and each of the EDM Services).

Landmark LAM 5000

Landmarks License Application Manager (LAM) is based on
Macrovisions FLEXNet Publisher licensing server package. Starting
with release 5000.0.0, a new LAM version is required, so you will need
new licensing. LAM installation files are included in the Third-Party
installation. Information on installing LAM is located in the LAM
GuideLinux, Solaris, and Windows manual.
Release 5000.1 requires new a version of LAM (FLEXnet Publisher).
FLEXnet Publisher server and license files incorporate new security

enhancements used by Release 5000.1. As a result, Release 5000.1

applications will not work on earlier versions of LAM.
Using Bitlocks...
Customers using OpenWire, EDM to OpenWorks Link, and COMPASS
Live Link must use Network licences.

Microsoft Visual J# .NET Redistribution Package 2.0

The Visual J# .NET Redistribution Package is used to run Visual J#
.NET applications. Without this package, EDM Publishing Service will
fail to run properly.

Overview of the Complete EDT Installation (Workflow)

This is what you will be doing to install EDT Third-Party
Components, EDM, and Drilling & Completions software:

1.

Uninstall LAM 2003, if it is currently installed (use Add/Remove

Programs).

2.

Log in: Log in using the PCs local administrator account.

Windows Vista only: If you are installing on Windows Vista, you must
log in using the true Administrator account (a user account with
administrator privileges will not work).
Note that this super Administrator account is only needed to install EDT
5000.1you should run EDT 5000.1 using your normal user account.
By default Microsoft disables the Administrator account, but you can enable it,
using the Computer Management section of Vistas Administrative Tools Control
Panel. Refer to the Microsoft on-line help for details.

3.

installation by navigating to \ThirdParty and double-clicking on
Setup.exe.

The installation of Third-party software will begin.

Following prompts, select the components to be installed. The

files will be installed.

Reboot. A reboot of the machine is not required if the EDM

installation is to be run immediately following this installation.
However, Landmark strongly recommends that the system be
rebooted prior to running any applications or tools. Some
Landmark applications, tools, and services may not work
properly until the system has been rebooted.

Install EDM: Launch the EDM installation by navigating to

\EDM and double-clicking on Setup.exe. (Refer to the EDM
Installation Guide (EDM_Install.pdf) for details.)

Troubleshooting
Conflict with SMS or other corporate processes running automatically
in the background while installing
Issue
During the installation, you may encounter an error because there is
another MSIE.EXE process running on the machine.

Cause
This can be caused by SMS or other corporate software clients running
in the background. Microsoft will not allow more than one MSIE.EXE
process to run simultaneously.

Workaround
Landmark recommends that you either wait until the SMS process has
finished before installing, or that you install using the machines local
Administrator account. Typically corporations tie SMS activity to user
accounts, but not the machine Administrator account.

LAM will not install

Issue
During the installation, you may encounter an error because there is a
2003 or earlier LAM already installed on the machine
Solution
Uninstall 2003 or older installed versions of LAM. LAM 5000 will not
co-exist on the same machine with previous versions of LAM.
