12 If this computer is your production computer, you might want to install only the server and
not the authoring extensions.
13 You can install the client-side files for the sample applications in the web server publishing
directory of your choice. If you don’t have a web server installed, the files are automatically
installed in the root directory.
14 Enter a user for Flash Communication Server processes to run as. The default is the “nobody”
user. (The user you select is also the owner of the Flash Communication Server files.)
Your choices are written to the Server.xml file; you can edit the Server.xml file to modify this
and other security properties later, if needed.
15 The installer displays a summary of the installation options you have chosen. Review your
choices.
The installation is complete. If you configured it to start automatically, the Flash Communication
Server service starts. To start the server manually, type
fcsmgr server start.
To log on to the Admin Service and perform administrative functions, open the Administration
Console by opening admin.swf in a Flash Player-enabled browser.
To install the help files and application-management tools in Flash MX, such as the
NetConnection Debugger and the Communication App inspector, see “Installing Flash
authoring extensions on the Macintosh” on page 16 or “Installing Flash authoring extensions in
Windows” on page 16.
About the installed files
When the server has been installed, it’s a good idea to become familiar with the files placed in the
Flash Communication Server directory and, if applicable, your web root directory.
Files in the installation directory
If you chose the default directory in the installer, the Flash Communication Server MX
installation directory is located at C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Flash Communication Server
MX\ (Windows) or /opt/macromedia/fcs/ (UNIX).
The Flash Communication Server directory contains these items:
• FlashCom.exe (Windows) or fcserver (UNIX) is the server application.
• FlashComAdmin.exe (Windows) or fcadmin (UNIX) is the server’s administration controller.
When administrators connect to the server with the Administration Console, they are actually
connected to the Admin Service, which communicates with the server to perform
administration tasks.
• The tools directory contains BAT files that can be used to start and stop the server (Windows
only).
The tools directory contains scripts used to manage the server and the administration services
(UNIX only).
• License.htm (Windows) and license.txt (UNIX) contain the text of the Flash Communication
Server license agreement.
• Js32.dll contains the server’s Server-Side Communication ActionScript engine (Windows
only).
