Installation Qualification - IQ
The Installation Qualification (IQ) is a procedure that confirms the successful installation of the software and verifies the correctness of the file versions. IQ is an integral part of the Clarity installation procedure.
How to use the Installation Qualification
- Install Clarity according to the instructions of the Installation Wizard.
- Run Clarity.
- Start IQ from the main Clarity window using Help - IQ Report command.
- If the installation has been performed correctly, the status should read: "Installation Qualification Test: Passed".
The IQ window
- If the Installation Qualification fails, it is recommended to uninstall using Uninstall.exe and then re-install Clarity. If it fails again, contact the DataApex support (support@dataapex.com).
- The Installation Qualification report can be printed, copied to a clipboard, sent by an email, etc. The report is saved as IQ.html to Cfg folder.
Note:
The most common reason for a "Failed" result is when an upgrade is installed over an existing full version of Clarity. While this process does not generate any errors, it can lead to checksum mismatches because some files are retained from the original installation.
