Verify installation

To verify that the Pentaho products have been installed properly, review the software directory structure and the installation summary file.

1. Open a file explorer window such as Windows Explorer or a command line tool such as the Command Prompt or Windows Terminal.

2. Navigate to the directory where you installed the software, then compare this directory structure with yours. If you installed all components, the structure should look like this.

   pentaho/
   pentaho/design-tools/
   pentaho/design-tools/aggregation-designer/
   pentaho/design-tools/data-integration/
   pentaho/design-tools/metadata-editor/
   pentaho/design-tools/report-designer/
   pentaho/design-tools/schema-workbench/
   pentaho/documentation/

   pentaho/license-installer/
   pentaho/licenses/pentaho/monetdb/
   pentaho/postgresql/
   pentaho/scripts/
   pentaho/server/
   

3. Open the installation-summary.txt file. Make sure that the design tools and plugins that you installed are listed.
