7. Create TUXCONFIG


This chapter describes how to prepare to boot STOCKAPP.

As with all the steps since Chapter 1, "Introduction and a Simple Application," of this guide, you should be in the directory where your STOCKAPP files are located and the environment must be set by entering:

. ./STKVAR

Loading the Configuration File

Once the configuration file has been edited to your satisfaction, it must be loaded to a binary file. The binary configuration file has a file name of TUXCONFIG; its pathname relative to APPDIR is in the environment variable, TUXCONFIG. The file should be created by a person with the effective user ID and group ID of the BEA TUXEDO system administrator, which should be the same as the UID and GID values in your configuration file. If these conditions are not observed, you may run into permission problems in running STOCKAPP. The command line for creating TUXCONFIG is:

tmloadcf UBBCBSHM

There is a -y option to suppress prompts that ask if you really want to install TUXCONFIG or to overwrite it if it already exists.

If you have specified SECURITY as an option for the configuration, tmloadcf prompts you to enter an application password. The password you select can be up to 30 characters long. Client processes joining the application will have to come up with the password.

tmloadcf parses the ASCII configuration file for syntax errors before it loads it, so if there are errors in the file, the job fails.
