Plan your installation by reading Planning for Java CAPS Installation, which contains information necessary for your to complete a successful installation of Java CAPS such as supported platforms, operating system limitations, and parameter definitions.
Install the JDK software and set JAVA_HOME. For more information, see Installing the JDK Software and Setting JAVA_HOME
Set up a configuration properties file. For more information, see Creating the Configuration Properties File for Silent Installations.
Download the installation executable file from the delivery media to the installation directory.
You can download the file from the following media:
The Sun Download Center (SDLC) URL supplied by Sun Support
The DVDs that come with the Java Composite Application Platform Suite Media Kit
If you have not done so already, copy the configuration properties file to the directory where you are going to install Java CAPS.
For more information, see Creating the Configuration Properties File for Silent Installations.
Extract the installation executable file to the directory where you are going to install Java CAPS.
Solaris, AIX, and Linux: JavaCAPS.bin
Windows: JavaCAPS.exe
On UNIX systems, the Java CAPS Installer uses /tmp as its workspace by default even when /var/tmp is the system temporary directory, as is the case on Solaris SPARC systems. If you do not have access to /tmp, set the environment variable to IATEMPDIR=/var/tmp. The Java CAPS Installer will then use /var/tmp as its temporary directory.
Go to the installation directory where you copied the configuration properties file and the installation executable file and execute the file.
Solaris, AIX, and Linux: sh ./JavaCAPS.bin -i silent -f file.properties
Windows: JavaCAPS.exe -i silent -f file.properties
Java CAPS is installed in the directory you specified.
