ProcedureTo Install GlassFish ESB Components Using the GlassFish ESB Installer

Before You Begin

When installing GlassFish ESB on UNIX systems, such as Solaris machines, you need to set the DISPLAY variable to install in GUI mode. How you do this depends on how you connect to your system.

Do not use telnet if you install on a Windows system.

  1. Download the installation executable file for your platform from https://open-esb.dev.java.net/Downloads.html.

  2. Extract the installer file for your platform to a temporary directory.

  3. Exit from all programs prior to beginning the installation.

    You can cancel the installation at any time during the process.

  4. To start the installation, initiate the appropriate executable file:

    • For Linux or Solaris, change the execution mode with the command chmod a+x [installer_file].sh, then start the installation with the command ./[installer_file].sh.

    • For Macintosh, place the [installer_file].tgz under $HOME/Desktop, double—click the [installer_file].tgz from the Desktop, and double-click the extracted file [installer_file].command from the Desktop.

    • For Windows, double-click the file [installer_file].exe

  5. When the GlassFish ESB Installer wizard appears, click Next on the Introduction page to begin the installation.
