Installing on Windows
c-tree provides a graphical setup wizard for the installation on Windows.
First of all, you have to choose which kind of installation to perform.

• Database Server is the full server installation. If this option is checked, server products will be installed on the PC.
• Database Client is the client installation. If this option is checked, client database tools are installed.
• isCOBOL client library is the c-tree client installation. If this option is checked, the client library (ctree.dll) will be installed The setup will ask for the destination directory later.
• COBOL drivers, if checked, installs the import libraries to include c-tree in C-based COBOL runtimes like ACUCOBOL-GT and RM/COBOL.
• ODBC driver, if checked, installs the ODBC driver for c-tree.
• JDBC driver, if checked, installs the JDBC driver for c-tree.
• Drivers and API is a collection of drivers to interface c-tree with other programming languages like PHP, C# and Python.
If isCOBOL client library was checked, the next step will let you choose which version of isCOBOL will be updated with the c-tree client library.
The setup lets you select the path in which the c-tree and its utilities will be installed.

If Database Server was checked, the setup lets you create a Windows service for the c-tree Server

The service must be managed via the sc command or the Windows Service Manager, as explained in
Windows Service.
