Download the JES 5 Update 1 distro to obtain Access Manager 7.1 and Web Server 7.0 software.

h2. Notes and Caveats

Download Directory Server Enterprise Edition 6.3 (minimum) from the Communications Suite download site before you run the JES 5 Update 1 installer. Do not install the version of Directory Server bundled with JES 5 Update 1. That is an older version of Directory Server.

If you already started with an older DSEE version, you can still get to the recommended DSEE 6.3. You must apply an upgrade patch as well as other patches to upgrade to DSEE 6.3.

For example, if you obtained the native package format of DSEE on the Solaris 10 x86 or SPARC platform, you must start by installing the DSEE 6.2 version bundled with JES 5 Update 1, then upgrade to DSEE 6.3.

You can instead take the easier path: Download and install the version of DSEE 6.3 directly from the Communications Suite download site.

If you are installing Access Manager 7.1 on a Linux system, you should verify that a compatible version of Java Development Kit (JDK) is installed. For details, see [Verifying the Correct JDK Version to Support Access Manager].
