Before you begin

This page provides instructions on using the installation wizard. For unattended installation, see Unattended installation on Windows.

  • Before installing a new version of the Klocwork User package, uninstall the previous version.
  • By default, the Klocwork User package will install for all users on a single machine.
  • You can only have one installation the Klocwork User package on a machine (regardless of the version). If you run the Klocwork User package again, the installation wizard will ask you if you want to remove or modify the previous installation.
  • You can specify information for the Klocwork Servers during installation in the Klocwork Servers configuration screen to override the default settings. The defaults for the License Server are localhost and 27000. The default port for the Klocwork Server is 8080.
  • You must have administrator access to your machine to install the Klocwork User package.
  • Unattended installation of the User package is also possible.

For limitations related to installation, see the Release Notes.

Running the installation wizard

The Windows Klocwork User package is called kw-user-installer.9.5.x.x.windows.exe. Double-click the installation package. For more information about the components, see About the Klocwork packages and components.

  • Choose Setup Language screen: This affects the language of the installation package and of the help topics for reported issues. Currently, only English (United States) and Japanese are supported. The default is the current system locale; if the current system locale is not supported by Klocwork, English (United States) will be used. Note that all of Server and User packages must be installed in the same language.
  • Destination Directory screen: The default destination directory is the local drive with the most available space. For example:
    D:\Klocwork\User 9.5\
  • Change Current Destination Directory screen: Important: Avoid installing the package in the Program Files directory on Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008 and Windows 7 machines. Windows User Access Control (UAC) restricts writing to the Program Files directory.
  • Klocwork Servers configuration screen: Specify the Klocwork Server information provided by your Klocwork administrator. Select Use secure server connection (HTTPS) if a secure Klocwork Server connection has been configured.

Note: The installation package will automatically detect whether you have a 32-bit or 64-bit operating system and will install the appropriate version of Java.
