2. Click Add/Remove Windows Components. The Windows Components Wizard appears.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions to install, or add components to IIS if not already installed.

Go to Programs -> Features -> Turn Windows Features On or Off -> under Internet Information Services make sure all are check-marked as per the screenshot below as well as the Microsoft.NET Framework
B. Confirm that your AyaNova is networked and is the latest version.
| • | AyaNova must be networked using either Firebird Server, SQL Express or SQL Server. The DataPortal will not run if using the default stand-alone installation of AyaNova. |
| • | Refer to the AyaNova Help documentation section on networking AyaNova if you have not yet done so. |
C. AyaNova is installed on to this computer and successfully runs
| • | Run AyaNova. Log in. Make sure you can log in successfully. |
D. Run the AyaNova setup file and install the data portal
Run the AyaNovaSetup.exe installation again on this same server where you have already configured network AyaNova use and select the network administrator setup so that you can select to install the Data Portal
| • | As you will be selecting the Network administrator setup to install the Data Portal, run the AyaNovaSetup.exe file from the same folder where you placed the copy of your networked edited config.txt file as per step #7 of your AyaNova networking steps - as it will expect to find a copy of the config.txt file in the same folder. |
| • | If you run the AyaNovaSetup.exe file from a folder where a copy of your config.txt file is not located, you will get the following message. Just click on Ignore. |
Select to Install AyaNova Data Portal (requires IIS)
During the installation it will notify you that it created the virtual directory AyaNovaDP from C:\Program Files\Ground Zero Tech-Works Inc\AyaNova
If during the installation, it sees that there already is a config.txt file and will ask you if you want to overwrite it - click NO
| • | You do NOT want to overwrite your config.txt file because it is already configured to point to your networked AyaNova database |
NOTE: if you get a message such as below about replacing a file, this is occurring because you have something running. Click Abort, and then check to make sure you do NOT have the AyaNova program running, nor OLI, and check Services to make sure that the AyaNova Generator is shut off while installing. Then run the installation again.
d. Once installation is complete, continue with configuration and testing
