  • Článek

Applies to: Windows 10, Windows 11, Windows Server 2016

Use the following procedure to install the publishing server on a separate computer. Before you perform the following procedure, ensure the database and management server are available.

Installing the publishing server on a separate computer

  1. Copy the App-V server installation files to the computer on which you want to install it on. To start the App-V server installation, run appv_server_setup.exe as an administrator, then select Install.

  2. On the Getting started page, review and accept the license terms, then select Next.

  3. On the Use Microsoft Update to help keep your computer secure and up-to-date page, to enable Microsoft updates, select Use Microsoft Update when I check for updates (recommended). To disable Microsoft Update, select I don't want to use Microsoft Update. Click Next.

  4. On the Feature selection page, select the Publishing Server checkbox, then select Next.

  5. On the Installation location page, accept the default location, then select Next.

  6. On the Configure publishing server configuration page, specify the following items:

    • The URL for the management service that the publishing server will connect to. For example, http://ManagementServerName:12345.
    • Specify the website name that you want to use for the publishing service. If you don't have a custom name, then use the default name.
    • For the Port binding, specify a unique port number that will be used by App-V. For example, 54321.

  7. On the Ready to install page, select Install.

  8. After the installation is complete, the publishing server must be registered with the management server. In the App-V management console, use the following steps to register the server:

    1. Open the App-V management server console.
    2. In the left pane, select Servers, then select Register New Server.
    3. Enter the server name and a description (if required), then select Add.

  9. To verify that the publishing server is running correctly, you should import a package to the management server, entitle that package to an AD group, then publish it. Using an internet browser, open the following URL: https://publishingserver:pubport. If the server is running correctly, information like the following example should appear.
