JungleMail installation and activation guide

The latest version of JungleMail is always available from the download page.

System requirements

  • Microsoft Windows Server 2008, 2008 R2, 2012
  • SharePoint Server 2010, SharePoint Foundation 2010, SharePoint Server 2013 or SharePoint Foundation 2013
  • Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 or higher

Before Installation
Before you install EnovaPoint products, follow these guidelines to ensure a successful installation:

1. Back up your system before making any changes.
2. Verify the system requirements for the product you are installing.
3. Make sure you are starting the installation on the correct server. It is recommended to install JungleMail on one of the servers in the SharePoint farm running the Central Administration service. The product will be automatically deployed to other SharePoint servers by the SharePoint Timer service.
4. Verify the permissions required for the installation account you are using to install the product. The installation account must have at least the following permissions:

  • Member of the local server Administrators group (to install application files);
  • Member of the SharePoint Farm Administrators group (to deploy solutions to the farm);
  • SharePoint site collection administrator (to activate the features after installation).

5. Stop the World Wide Web Publishing Service (W3SVC) during installation on every server running it in your SharePoint farm. You can use the iisreset /stop /noforce and iisreset /start command line commands. This will ensure that no system files that need to be updated are locked, which could cause the installation to fail.

Installation process

1. Run the setup program you have downloaded from the EnovaPoint web site.
2. Follow the installation wizard instructions.
3. When installation is complete, review the summary screen to confirm that the product installed successfully, and then click Close.
