Installation and Upgrade

Caché Direct is installed automatically when you install Caché. Sometimes, however, you may want to install the client-side software on a machine where Caché is not installed. This appendix describes how to do so.

Installing VisM on a New Machine

The easiest way to install VisM is to install the Caché client software as usual. You can, however, install the Caché Direct client software manually. To do so:

  1. Make sure that you have installed the Microsoft Visual 2008 Redistributable Package, which is needed in order to register the VisM DLLs.

  2. Copy the following files from a machine where the client is installed:

    • For Caché Direct before version 5.1 32–bit systems

      • NTI.dll

      • NTIIPTCP.dll

      • Cmvism32.dll and all files with similar names

      • ISLog.dll

      • VISM.ocx

    • For Caché Direct 5.1 and later 32–bit systems

      • cconnect.dll

      • Cmvism32.dll and all files with similar names

      • ISCDLink.dll

      • ISLog.dll

      • VISM.ocx

    • For Caché Direct 5.1 and later 64-bit systems

      • cconnect64.dll

      • Cmvism64.dll and all files with similar names

      • ISCDLink64.dll

      • ISLog64.dll

      • VISM64.ocx

    Copy the files from the directory C:\Program Files\Common Files\InterSystems\Cache and paste them into the same directory on the target machine.

  3. Open a command prompt, navigate to this directory, and enter the following command to register the ActiveX control (must be run by a user with administrator privileges):

    For 32-bit systems

    C:\Windows\SysWOW64\regsvr32 vism.ocx
    

    For 64-bit systems

    C:\Windows\System32\regsvr32 vism64.ocx
