IBM SPSS Data Collection Server 6.0.1 Installation Instructions

Additional IBM® SPSS® Data Collection Survey Reporter Server Edition and IBM® SPSS® Data

Collection Author Server Edition considerations

The Internet Explorer security settings can adversely affect access to Survey Reporter Server

Edition and Author Server Edition. It is recommended that you conﬁgure Internet Explorer for

Medium security (Tools →Internet Options →Security tab →Security level for this zone).

– A security setting of High will prevent all users from logging into IBM® SPSS® Data

Collection Interviewer Server Administration, thus preventing access to Survey Reporter

Server Edition and Author Server Edition.

– A security setting of Medium -high will allow users to login to Interviewer Server

Administration, but will prevent most users from launching Survey Reporter Server Edition

and Author Server Edition from their respective links.

Users who only belong to the Windows Guests account are not able to install or run Survey

Reporter Server Edition and Author Server Edition.

Survey Reporter Server Edition and Author Server Edition are only available in x86 32-bit

format.

Installing Microsoft Data Access Components 2.8

You need to install Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2.8 on your computer before

you can install any of the IBM SPSS Data Collection Server applications. If MDAC 2.8 (in any

language) is not already installed, the IBM SPSS Data Collection Server installation program will

install the English language version for you. If you you want to use a non-English version of

MDAC, you must manually install the appropriate language version of MDAC 2.8. You can do

this by selecting Install Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2.8 from the autoplay menu

(MDAC can also be found in the MDAC folder on the installation DVD-ROM, or you can

download it from http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/downloads/default.mspx)

Installing Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 or above or Firefox 3.x or above

Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 or above must be installed before you can install any of the IBM

SPSS Data Collection Server 6.0.1 applications. If you do not have a suitable version of Internet

Explorer installed, the IBM SPSS Data Collection Server 6.0.1 installation program will not run.

Firefox 3.x or above, with the Microsoft .NET Framework Assistant add-on, is supported in

the web-deployed versions of IBM® SPSS® Data Collection Author and IBM® SPSS® Data

Collection Survey Reporter. You must manually install the Microsoft .NET Framework Assistant

With some operating systems, Internet Information Services (IIS) is installed as part of the

operating system. This is not the case with Windows 2003/2008 Server, where you must

manually install IIS 7 or above before installing any of the IBM SPSS Data Collection Server

6.0.1 applications.

Important:

IIS must be properly conﬁgured in order to ensure sensitive information is not exposed in

response headers. For more information, see the topic Conﬁguring Internet Information

Services to avoid the detection of hidden directories on p. 13.

Chapter 2

Refer to the Microsoft support article Internet Information

Server returns IP address in HTTP header (Content-Location)

(http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;Q218180)for more information.

You must install the ASP.NET and ISAPI extensions in addition to the default installation

features.

IBM SPSS Data Collection Interviewer Server

In IBM® SPSS® Data Collection Interviewer Server, IIS is used by the Accessories, Interviewing,

and Web services. If any of these machines is running Windows Server 2003 or 2008 you must

install IIS before installing Interviewer Server.

Installing IIS on machines running Windows 2003 Server

EInstall IIS, including the ASP.NET option on Windows 2003 Server, using the installation

instructions provided with the software.

Installing IIS on machines running Windows 2008 Server

EInstall IIS, including the ASP.NET option on Windows 2008 Server, using the installation

Installing ASP.NET manually

Use the following steps if you need to install ASP.NET manually on a 64-bit system.

EOpen a command prompt and navigate to

C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50.727.

EType aspnet_regiis.exe /i and press Enter.

Notes on WebDAV

Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WebDAV) is a collection of extensions that

allow users to edit and manage ﬁles on remote servers. If you do not need WebDAV enabled on

your server, ensure that you either disable it, or disallow unneeded HTTP methods (verbs) (due to

potential security issues). WebDAV can be disabled via the Internet Information Services (IIS)

Manager. By default, the WebDAV service is disabled on the version of IIS deployed with IBM®

SPSS® Data Collection products.

If WebDAV is required on your server, use a tool UrlScan security tool to disallow the

unneeded HTTP methods (verbs). Refer the Microsoft TechNet article UrlScan Security Tool

(http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/security/cc242650.aspx)for more information.
