The servers are installed from the ABBYY FlexiCapture disk via the setup menu. The following servers must be installed:

​
Application Server

Before installing the Application Server, make sure that the necessary components are installed. If these components are not installed on your computer, all of them (with the exception of Internet Information Services) can be installed from the ABBYY FlexiCapture disk (Autorun, 1. Distributed Installation → 1. Install External Components). After the components are installed, install the Application Server:
1

Run the server setup

On the Autorun menu, select 1. Distributed Installation → 2. Install Servers and follow the instructions of the setup wizard.
2

Select the Application Server

In the Custom Setup dialog box, select Application Server.
To install the Web Scanning station and Web Capture station, select the Web Stations option in the Custom Setup dialog box. Operators can then access the stations via a browser. Default installation paths cannot be changed.
Prerequisites (for example, Msxml6) are installed only when installation or modification of the program is run via the setup.exe file.
After the Application Server is installed, the Administration and Monitoring Console launches automatically, where you can set a database connection and grant rights to the Operators.

​
Database Server

The Database Server stores the data required for document processing operations: information about the Operators, batches, events, and so on. If there are no more than 50 Verification Stations in the system and no more than 100,000 documents are processed daily, you can use Microsoft SQL Server Express Edition. For larger volumes, the use of the full version of Microsoft SQL Server and/or File Storage Folder is recommended. Microsoft SQL Server Express Edition can be installed from the ABBYY FlexiCapture disk: on the Autorun menu, select 1. Distributed Installation → 1. Install External Components.

​
Processing Server

The Processing Server distributes the workload among the Processing Stations. Together with the server, a Processing Server Monitor is installed, where you can monitor the operation of the server and set task priorities.
1

Run the server setup

On the Autorun menu, select 1. Distributed Installation → 2. Install Servers and follow the instructions of the setup wizard.
2

Select the Processing Server

In the Custom Setup dialog box, select Processing Server.
After the Processing Server is installed, you must configure it (that is, start the server, add the Processing Stations, and so on).

​
Licensing Server

The system requires a valid protection key, activated on the ABBYY activation server. Activate it with the License Manager, which starts automatically after you install the Licensing Server.
1

Run the server setup

On the Autorun menu, select 1. Distributed Installation → 2. Install Servers and follow the instructions of the setup wizard.
2

Select the Licensing Server

In the Custom Setup dialog box, select Licensing Server.
Use the License Manager to add, activate, and select licenses, and to view their parameters.
