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. The Java CAPS Uploader installs non-JBI based Java CAPS components that require a Repository.

  1. Start the Repository by navigating to the directory where you installed Java CAPS and starting the appropriate executable file.

  2. In a browser window, go to http://HostName:PortNumber, where:

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

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

  3. On the Java CAPS Uploader login page, enter your username and password.


    Note –

    The defaults are admin for username and adminadmin for password.


    The Java CAPS Uploader displays a list of 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, expand a Product Name category such as Core Product or OTD.

  6. Make your selections by selecting the box to the left of the component.


    Note –

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


  7. When you have selected all the components you want to install, click Next.

  8. On the Selecting Files to Install page, browse to and select the appropriate SAR file, and then 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.


  9. Repeat the previous step until you have selected all the necessary SAR files.

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

  10. To complete the installation, follow the steps under Installing Components Using the NetBeans IDE Update Center to install the new components to the NetBeans IDE.
