Using the Java CAPS 6 Installation GUI

ProcedureTo Install Java CAPS Components Using the Java CAPS Uploader

Before You Begin

This task assumes that you have installed the Repository using the Java CAPS Installer and that the Java CAPS Uploader is running. The Java CAPS Uploader installs non-JBI based Java CAPS components that require a Repository.


Tip –

Once the Java CAPS Uploader is running, the HELP tab opens the “Installing Java CAPS Components Using the Java CAPS Uploader” topic and the Documentation tab opens the Sun Java CAPS Documentation tab on the SDN web site.


  1. To start the Repository, navigate to the base directory where you installed Java CAPS, and start the appropriate executable file.

  2. In a browser window, go to http://host-name:port-number, where:

    • hos-nname is the TCP/IP host name of the server where you installed the Repository and not the name of the Repository itself.

    • port-number is the port number that you specified during the installation of the Repository.

  3. To log in to the Java CAPS Uploader, type your username and password.


    Note –

    The defaults are “admin” for username and “adminadmin” for password.


    The Java CAPS Uploader starts, listing components you have already installed.

  4. To install additional Java CAPS components, select Click to Install Additional Products.

  5. Under Select Java Composite Application Platform Suite Products to Install, open a Product Name category such as Core Product or OTD.

  6. Make your selections by selecting the box to the left of the component, and, when ready, click Next.


    Note –

    “eGate” and “eWay” are pre-Release 6 terms. To see their current equivalents, refer to Planning for Java CAPS Installation.


  7. In the Selecting Files to Install dialog box, navigate to the appropriate SAR file, select it, and click Next.

    For information about the location of the SAR files, see Planning for Java CAPS Installation.


    Note –

    If you decide you do not want to upload a particular component, click Skip to move on to the next component. However, sometimes you cannot skip an upload due to dependencies.


    Repeat this step until you have selected all the SAR files.

    The Java CAPS Uploader uploads the selected components to the Repository.
