3.3 Installing MailMarshal on a Standalone Server

You can install the MailMarshal Server, Array Manager, and database on one computer. For more information about standalone MailMarshal installation, see “Standalone Installation” and “Standalone Installation Requirements”

Use the Basic Install option to install MailMarshal on a standalone computer. The basic install option installs MailMarshal using the default installation and folder locations. If you are installing from the “with SQL Express” version of the installer package, the Basic Install installs a local instance of SQL Express 2016 if necessary. To use a different SQL Server computer, select Custom Install. See the instructions under “Installing a MailMarshal Array Manager”.

Information 

Note: The Basic Install uses a default set of install options required to use SQL Express with MailMarshal. These include Mixed Mode authentication and TCP connections. If you want to review and alter other installation options (such as instance name and install location), Trustwave recommends you install SQL Express 2016 before installing MailMarshal. See the Prerequisites tab of the MailMarshal setup program.

If you later want to specify alternate folder or database locations for MailMarshal, use the MailMarshal Server Tool. For more information, see “Changing Folder Locations”.

To install MailMarshal on a standalone computer using the default MailMarshal folder locations:

1.Ensure you have installed all prerequisite software specified for a standalone installation. For more information, see “Standalone Installation Requirements” and “Installing Prerequisite Software”.

2.Log on to the computer as a member of the local Administrators group.

3.Close any open applications.

4.Run the setup program from the MailMarshal installation package.

5.On the Setup tab, click Install MailMarshal.

6.On the Welcome window, click Next.

7.On the License Agreement window, carefully read the license information.

8.Click I accept the terms of the license agreement, and then click Next. 

9.On the Setup Type window, select Basic Install, and then click Next.

If you choose to install SQL Express:

a.Note that SQL Express will install .NET Framework 4.6. The setup program prompts you to enter a strong password for the SQL Express sa account.

b.SQL Express setup executes in silent mode. This process may take a number of minutes. Once installation is complete, MailMarshal installation continues.

10.The Basic Install process attempts to connect to a SQL instance on the local computer using Windows authentication, and create a database named MailMarshal.

Information 

Note: If the process encounters problems connecting, you can use Custom Install for more options. See the instructions under “Installing a MailMarshal Array Manager”. If the database already exists, you can choose to use or re-create it. If you are unsure, use Custom Install to create a database with a different name.

   

11.The Settings Summary window displays the folder locations and database details for the installation. Review the settings, and then click Next.

12.On the Ready to Install window, click Install. The setup program displays a progress bar until the program is installed.

13.On the Finished window, ensure Run Configuration Wizard is selected, and then click Finish.

You must run the Configuration Wizard before MailMarshal can receive email and apply rules. For more information, see “Running the Configuration Wizard”.
