Selecting the required components
After clicking the Next button, the component selection page appears, where the different
components of PlanetPress Connect can be selected for installation. Currently, the following
are available:
l PlanetPress Connect Designer: The Designer module (see "The Designer" on
page447) can be installed standalone (with no other installed modules)on as many
machines as you like. It does not require a license to run as a standalone designer tool .
This allows for any number of people to use the Designer for creating jobs, but without
production capabilities such as automation and commingling.
l PlanetPress Connect Server: The Server back-end that provides Connect production
capabilities such as production content creation (print output, HTML content for emails
and web pages), automation, commingling and picking.
l MySQL: A supplied MySQLdatabase used by PlanetPress Connect.
The database is used for referencing temporary Connect files and for sorting temporarily
extracted data, and similar.
A pre-existing MySQL or Microsoft SQL server (referred to as an external database, in
this documentation) could be used instead, for the same purposes.
The external database could reside on the same computer or on a separate server.
If you wish to make use of an external database, please make sure the MySQL option is
not selected.
Warning
If you chose not to install the supplied MySQL database, and instead opt for using a
pre-existing (External) database then you yourself must ensure that the External
database is accessible to Connect.
Objectif Lune Inc. will take no responsibility for setting up database connections to
any but the supplied MySQL database.
