Launching the Code Insight Installer UI

After you have met the System Requirements, including creating a database with remote access privileges, and have collected required installer information, you are ready to run the Code Insight Installer to install the Code Insight Core Server and one or more Scan Servers. You will need to run a separate installation on each instance on which you want to install the servers, depending on your server configuration, as described in Recommended Hardware for Deployment Configurations.

You can cancel the installation by clicking Cancel on any installation panel.

note

The user who installs Code Insight should not have elevated privileges because this same user also installs and starts Tomcat, which should not run under elevated privileges.

To install Code Insight, do the following:

1. Download the Code Insight installer from the Product and License Center:

   • For Windows, CodeInsight-<BUILD>.exe

   • For Linux, CodeInsight-<BUILD>.bin

2. Navigate to the directory where you downloaded the installer, and launch the installer.
3. Follow the prompts to install Code Insight.
4. When the installation is complete, do the following:
   1. Start the Tomcat server if it is not already running. See Starting and Stopping Tomcat. The recommended best practice is not to run Tomcat under elevated privileges.
   2. If Code Insight is not already running, use the procedures in Opening the Code Insight Web User Interface to launch the application.

info

If the installation does not complete properly, contact support for Code Insight (see Revenera Support).
