Sun Java Enterprise System
(Java ES) provides a single installer for installing Java
ES components in various combinations. Due to the interrelationships of
these components, Java ES installation is complicated and requires more
preinstallation and postinstallation
effort than is required for simpler installations. This document
contains some of the most frequently asked
questions
(FAQs) about the Java ES installation process.

Q: How can I find
the
Java ES documentation?
A: The Java ES 2005Q4
documentation s stored in the docs.sun
repository as follows:
- Java
ES collection provides links to the manuals associated
with the
system-level Java ES tasks, including installation. You can view these
manuals in either
HTML or PDF format.
- Java
ES
installation documentation center provides links to the
information used to run the Java ES installer.
- Java
Enterprise System complete collection provides the HTML and PDF
versions of
the product
documentation for the Java ES products that are installed by the Java
ES installer. In this
listing you will also find links to specialized collections, such as
component Release Notes Collection, Technical Notes and Deployment
Examples Collection, HP-UX
documentation, and so on.
- The Sun Java System suites collections
provides links to the product documentation for the components included
in the suites.
Q:
What
components are included in this Java ES release?
A: Click to
see a list of the individual
components
for the 2005Q4 release of Java ES. Java ES components
are combined into different suites that provide
particular sets of services. For information on the Sun Java System
suites, see the following:
Q:
Is there a quick installation for evaluating Java ES software?
A: Yes, for the Java ES
installer on the Microsoft Windows platform. This Quick Install creates
a
Java ES
deployment on a single host using default configuration values. The
basic components (excluding Sun
Cluster software) are automatically started and ready to go. For
instructions, refer to the
Sun Java Enterprise
System Installation
Guide for Microsoft Windows.
On UNIX, the process is not so quick. However, two documents exist
that
provide instructions for creating a single-host evaluation deployment
using the installer on UNIX platforms:
Tip
Doing an evaluation installation
on a single host is a good way to learn about the
installer.
Preparing to
Install Java ES Software
Q:
How much planning do I need to do before installation?
A: If you are
installing for evaluation only, the best
preparation is to install on a host that has only the
operating system installed. You select all components except Sun
Cluster
software, then accept most defaults offered by the installer.
However, for a production deployment across multiple hosts, the
following planning activities are important for a successful
installation:
- Work from a
deployment architecture. In general, the deployment architecture and deployment
design indicate what needs to be done, the implementation
specifications indicate
how to implement the design, and
the installation plan
indicates how to perform installation to
meet the technical requirements. Refer to the instructions
for creating a deployment architecture and deployment design in the Sun Java Enterprise
System Deployment
Planning Guide. For additional specifics, refer to deployment
planning guides for specific Java ES components.
- Create an
installation plan. Using this plan, you can determine the
sequence of events for installing on each host in your deployment.
Refer to instructions for creating an installation plan in the Sun Java Enterprise
System Installation
Planning Guide.
- Survey your hosts. By knowing
what is already on your hosts, you can take steps to bring them to the
optimum state before installation, which might include upgrading or
removing some installed components. Refer to the instructions for
upgrading
in the Sun Java Enterprise
System
Upgrade Guide.
- Determine your configuration values.
Some components can be configured during installation,
so you
must determine the configuration values that you will supply during
installation.
- Select an example installation sequence
(if applicable). If any of the installation sequence examples can
be applied to your deployment, adjust your installation plan as
needed.
- Plan the deployment tasks needed, for example:
- Single sign-on:
This
type of
configuration is done after all post-installation configuration is
complete. Example instructions on how to implement single sign-on for
your
components are contained in the evaluation deployment example. You will
need to substitute your configuration specifics in
these example single
sign-on instructions.
- Redundancy:
Most production deployments include some type of
redundancy requirement, either to increase throughput or to protect
against downtime or data
loss. Three strategies are available for using redundant
instances of Java ES components:
These strategies are
discussed in the
Installation
Planning Issues section of the
Sun
Java
Enterprise System Installation Planning Guide (see the
Redundancy Strategies section). Additional material is contained in
availability
strategies in the
Sun Java
Enterprise System Deployment Planning Guide.
- User
management:
This type of
configuration is done after all postinstallation configuration is
complete. Example instructions on how to implement user
management for
your
components
is contained in the evaluation deployment example. You will need to
substitute your configuration specifics in
these example user
management instructions. You will also need to plan
your schema. More extensive schema instructions are contained
in the Directory
Server documentation.
Q:
Are there
examples that I can use to plan my installation?
A: Yes, a
collection of
installation
sequence examples can help you understand the task order for common
installations. These are not full procedures, but instead provide the
high-level sequence in which you should install, configure, and start
the
components in the examples.
There are also complete deployment examples that provide detailed
procedures for specific deployments:
Q: What are
the
system requirements for installation?
A: Before running the
installer, verify that the hosts on which you
will be installing are set up correctly. System requirements are listed
in the
following release notes:
In addition, a number of
situations exist that might require additional
tasks for your combination of components.
Be sure that
installation
prerequisites are met before starting your installation.
Q: Does it
matter if other Java ES components are already on my host?
A: Yes, if those components
are incompatible with the release of Java ES you are going to
install. An initial Java ES installation
goes most smoothly if you are installing
on a computer that has only
the
operating system installed. You can
install Java ES on a host that already contains Java ES components,
however,
your installation might be interrupted if the
installer finds incompatible components on the host. In this case, the
installer cannot proceed until you either remove or upgrade these
components
to supported versions for Java ES 2005Q4.
Exception:
If
your host contains incompatible Java ES
components that were installed when the Solaris operating system
was installed (Application Server or Message Queue),
the installer asks if you want the installer to remove them. If you
select Yes, those components are removed and correct versions are
installed when the Java ES software is installed on the host.
- Upgrading Components
Although the Java ES installer
can upgrade shared components, the installer cannot upgrade
selectable components. Full instructions for upgrading are
in the Sun Java
Enterprise
System Upgrade Guide.
- Removing Components
For components that were installed using the Java ES
installer, you should remove them using the Java ES uninstaller. If no
uninstaller is present, then the components were probably
installed by another method. You can remove the packages
for the components using the UNIX package remove commands:
- pkgrm
(Solaris OS)
- rpm -e
(Linux)
- swremove
(HP-UX)
Q:
How can I find out which Java ES components are on my host?
A: One way
to identify what Java ES components are on the host is perform a
dry-run installation using the
installer
-no
command. When you select components at the Component Selection page,
the installer will indicate what incompatible components are on the
host. Refer to
instructions
for identifying incompatible components for guidelines on surveying
your hosts before doing an installation.
Another way to survey the software on a host is to refer to the
product
registry. You can also examine the installed packages
using the UNIX package display commands to see if any
Java
ES component packages are present:
- pkginfo
(Solaris OS)
- rpm -qa
(Linux)
- swlist
(HP-UX)
Q:
How do I upgrade from another version of Java ES?
Q:
Are there component interdependencies that I need to know about?
A: Due to the dependencies
between the components, the Java ES installer does extensive dependency
checking. If your selected components require additional components,
the installer automatically selects the additional components.
Installation
sessions must be run in particular sequences, with some components
being installed, configured, and even started before other components
are installed. To understand how this works, refer to the information
in the
Component
Dependencies section where Table 3-1 shows the
interdependency matrix.
After installation, you must follow the correct
startup
sequence for Java ES components so the components function
correctly together.
Q:
What do I
need to know about Solaris 10 zones for Java ES?
Q:
What do I
have to do if my Java ES installation will include Sun Cluster software?
A: Sun Cluster software is
supported only on Solaris OS. Installing, configuring, and starting the
components in the
correct
order is
crucial for a successful Sun Cluster implementation. The following are
the general tasks:
- Install the Java ES Sun Cluster component.
- Configure the Sun Cluster framework.
- Install the additional Java ES components that
are required
for a component (agent) to operate in the cluster.
- Configure the Sun Cluster data services using the
agents for the
relevant Java ES components.
Q:
What is the significance of LDAP Schema 1 and LDAP Schema 2 for Java ES?
A: Java ES solutions
that use Directory Server can use
either of
two versions of a standard LDAP schema: Schema 1 or Schema 2.
A full explanation of the
schema
issues for Java ES is contained in the user management section of
the
Sun Java Enterprise System
Installation Planning Guide. Refer to the Access Manager
product documentation
for more specific information on
Access
Manager schema.
The
installation process configures the directory for
the specified schema as
follows:
- To establish a Schema 1 directory, install Directory
Server.
Schema 1 is the default schema version.
- To establish a Schema 2 directory, install Directory
Server and
Access Manager.
Installing Access Manager modifies the directory and converts a Schema
1 directory to a
Schema 2
directory. Schema 2 supports the Access Manager single
sign-on feature. If your solution uses Access Manager, you must use
Schema 2.
Running the
Installer and Uninstaller
Q:
How do I get
the Java ES software? How do I put the software in a shared location?
Q: How do I
run the
Java ES installer?
- Graphical
mode provides
an interactive wizard that leads you through the process of
installing the Java ES software
on a graphical workstation. The Installer
Tutorial provides a walkthrough of the graphical
installer. To run
the graphical installer:
./installer
- Text-based
mode provides
the same functionality as graphical mode, but you are prompted
for responses
on a line-by-line basis in a terminal window. To run
the text-based installer:
./installer
-nodisplay
- Script-based silent installation
Silent mode
is a
non-interactive method used for installing Java
ES on multiple hosts that share similar configurations. This
process allows you to propagate one configuration across multiple hosts
in your enterprise.
- You first
perform an interactive installation where your responses to
the installer
are captured as a set of name-value pairs in a state file. This could
be either a dry-run installation where no software is installed, or an
active installation.
- You edit the state file for host specifics, then run
the
installer
on other hosts using the state file as input.
Tip A way
to
practice with the installer is to
use the following command which runs the graphical installer but does
not install software:
./installer
-no
Q:
Can the
installer upgrade components that are already on my
host?
A: Yes and no, depending on
the type of component you want to upgrade.
- Selectable
components
cannot be upgraded by the installer.
These are the product
components
that you are allowed to select in the Java ES installer. If the
installer detects incompatible
versions of selectable Java ES components on the host, you must remove
or upgrade these components before installation can proceed. The
installer cannot upgrade the selectable components.
Exception:
If
your host contains incompatible Java ES
components that were installed when the Solaris operating system
was installed (Application Server or Message Queue),
the installer asks if you want the installer to remove them. If you
select Yes, those components are removed and correct versions are
installed when the Java ES software is installed on the host.
- Shared
components
can be upgraded by the installer.
These components support
the selectable components and are selected
automatically by the installer. If some shared
components are already on the host but
the versions do not match the
Java ES release
requirements, the installer indicates which shared components need
to be upgraded.
If you allow the installer to proceed, the shared components listed are
upgraded to the correct versions when the Java ES software is installed
on the host.
Q:
What is
the difference between Configure Now and Configure Later?
A: The installer
gives you the option of performing initial
configuration for many of the Java ES components. However, other
components can be configured only after the installer has installed the
Java ES software. The two types of configuration that you can choose
from are Configure Now or Configure Later.
- Configure Now prompts you to enter
the
initial configuration
values during the installation session. The Configure Now type can only
be selected for some components. If you select components for
Configure
Now that cannot be configured during installation, you are notified
that the installer will not configure them.
- Components
that can be configured during installation include Access Manager,
Administration Server, Application Server, Directory Server, Directory
Proxy Server, HADB, Portal Server, Portal Server Secure Remote Access,
Web Server, and Web Proxy Server.
- Configure Later instructs the
installer
to copy component software packages to the host. You might be asked
to enter a few values that are necessary for copying the
packages. The
installer proceeds
without doing further configuration, and no runnable instances are
created. You will create runnable instances after installation by
supplying
configuration values to component configuration wizards or
in configuration files. The Configure Later type can be selected for
all components.
- The components that can only support Configure
Now include Calendar Server, Communications Express, Delegated
Administrator, Instant Messaging, Messaging Server, Service Registry,
and Sun Cluster Software.
The selected
configuration type (Configure Now or Configure Later) applies to an
entire installation session. Regardless of whether you perform the
initial
configuration in the installer with Configure Now or independently with
Configure Later, some components require
postinstallation configuration. See
What postinstallation
configuration is required? for further instructions.
Q:
How can I
reproduce the same installation on another host?
A: You can run a
script-based installation by using the silent mode of
the installer.
Silent mode
is a
non-interactive method used for installing Java
ES software on multiple hosts that share similar configurations. To
create
the installation script, you first perform an interactive session
during which your responses to
the installer
are captured as a set of name-value pairs in a state file. You edit the
state file for host specifics, then
use the
state file as input to run the
installer
on other hosts. This
process allows you to propagate one configuration across multiple hosts
in your enterprise. The product documentation contains detailed
instructions
for using silent mode. Click to see an
example
state file.
Q:
Does the
installer check dependencies on remote components?
A: In general, the
installer does dependency and version checking on the
local host only
. However, one situation exists where the installer does
interact with a remote host: if you select the Configure Now
configuration type and are using a
remote component (such as Directory Server or Access Manager) to
satisfy a dependency. In this case, the installer tries to connect with
the remote component during the installation process. If the remote
component is not available, installation stops, and you receive an
error
message. To avoid this situation, install, configure, and start any
remote
components before starting an installation session.
In a Configure Later installation, the installer runs as though the
remote
component is available and does no checking. Installation succeeds, and
you can proceed to postinstallation configuration. If the remote
component is not available, you receive errors when
you try to run
any component that depends on that remote component.
To indicate a remote component to the installer, you first select all
the components that you will install locally and then deselect any dependency that will
be fulfilled by a remote component. When you attempt to proceed, the
installer
prompt you to fulfill any requirements for the component that you
deselected.
At this point, you indicate to the installer that you
are using a remote component to fulfill a dependency.
Q:
How do
I use a
third-party web container?
A: On Solaris OS and Linux,
Access Manager and Portal Server can use
the third-party web
containers BEA WebLogic Server or IBM WebSphere Application Server. To
indicate a third-party web container to the installer, select
all of your components except the web container. Do not
select
Sun Java Application Server or Sun Java Web Server. When you click
Next, the installer displays the Web Container Selection page.
Select Use Third-Party Web Container.
Tip Install,
configure, and start any third-part
web
container in your deployment before installing Java ES.
For installation, configuration, and startup instructions, refer to the
BEA or IBM product documentation.
Q: How do
I get
patches that the installer indicates are missing?
A: When the installer
performs a system check, the installer might identify missing patches.
The
installer cannot proceed until you install the patches,
however, you do not need to cancel the installation. Instead, do the
following:
- Leave the installer running and open a separate
terminal window.
- In a browser, go to the patch site for your operating
system and download the patches you need:
- In the new terminal window, install the patches.
- In the installer, recheck the host.
Q: How
do I know if the installation succeeded?
Q: When
can I run
the uninstaller?
A: When you expand the Java
ES distribution bundle, you will not find
the uninstall script because it does not yet exist on your host. During
installation, the Java ES installer places the
uninstaller
at the following location:
- Solaris OS: /var/sadm/prod/SUNWentsys4
- Linux and HP-UX: /var/sadm/prod/sun-entsys4
If you do not see the uninstaller
at this location, there are two
possibilities:
- Java ES
software has not been installed on the host.
- All Java ES
software has been
uninstalled. (After all Java ES components are
uninstalled, the uninstaller removes itself from the host.)
It is especially important to understand
component
uninstallation behavior before uninstalling. Full
instructions
for running the uninstaller are contained in the
Sun Java Enterprise System Installation
Guide.
Tip
You can use the uninstaller
-no
command to run the uninstaller
without uninstalling any software. This option is useful for
familiarizing yourself
with the uninstaller or for creating a state file for a subsequent
silent uninstallation.
Q: What can be
uninstalled?
A: The Java ES uninstaller
removes only selectable components that were
installed
by the Java ES installer. You cannot use the uninstaller to remove
shared components, nor can you use the uninstaller to remove Sun
Cluster software unless the Sun Cluster software has never been
configured.
To remove components that were not installed by the Java ES
installer, follow
instructions in the documentation for that component.
Before uninstalling, you need to be familiar with the following
information in the product documentation:
Q: How
do I know if the uninstallation succeeded?
One
way to
determine if the
uninstallation succeeded is to compare the packages listed in
the installation log with the packages listed in the uninstallation
log.
You can also check the
product registry
to verify that Java ES components have been removed.
In some cases, the uninstaller does not remove all of the packages or
directories.
You might not discover this situation until you try to do a new
installation. If
this occurs, check
the
troubleshooting
information for guidance.
Postinstallation
Configuration and
Verification
Q:
What postinstallation configuration is required?
A: When the
Java ES installer finishes,
most components require additional configuration to work together. The
extent of this work depends on the configuration
type you selected
(
Configure Now
or
Configure Later), and whether your components
will be configured
to operate in a Sun Cluster environment.
- If you selected Configure
Now, the installer prompted you
for
configuration values for the components being configured. Now, you have
very
little additional
configuration to do on the components you configured.
Refer to the following documentation to perform postinstallation
configuration:
- If you selected Configure
Later, the installer
placed the component packages in their respective directories,
parameter setting
was not done, and most components are not yet operational. Use
the component
configuration tools and
files to complete
a Configure
Later installation. You can also use these tools to make any additional
changes to your configuration. Refer to the following documentation to
perform postinstallation
configuration:
Q:
How do I know if the postinstallation configuration succeeded?
A: After you have
installed the Java ES
software and completed all
of the postinstallation configuration, follow the
Java
ES installation verification procedure to verify that your Java ES
installation has basic functionality. The installer does not start
the Java ES components, so starting the components is part of verifying
success of
the installation and the initial configuration.
The verification procedure determines only whether
the basic installed Java ES is
working, not whether you installed the components that you wanted. If
the resulting
installation does not meet your needs, run the
uninstaller to uninstall
all of the components, and then perform a new installation.
Q:
How do I
start and stop Java ES components?
A: You activate Java ES by
starting the components one after another, in a
specific sequence, beginning with the basic services provided by
Directory Server and
your web container (Web Server or an application server). When you
start the web
container, the components that run in that web container, such as
Portal Server and Access Manager, are
automatically started. The startup sequence is listed in
guidelines
for starting Java ES. To start the components, refer to
instructions
for starting and stopping each component.
Installation
Troubleshooting
Q: What do I do if I
have trouble during installation?
A: When troubleshooting, try to
identify the first problem you
encountered. The first problem often leads to subsequent problems, so
solving the first problem could resolve other problems. The general
process for troubleshooting problems with Java ES
installation includes the following activities:
- Examine the logs to see if errors
exist that indicate what is
wrong.
- Verify that you met all of the installation
prerequisites for the components you are installing.
- Check to see if your resources fulfill Java ES system
requirements:
- Adequate disk space
- Adequate memory
- Correct patches applied
- Correct ports specified
- Correct IP
addresses specified
- Check the media for dirt or damage.
- Verify that you have installed correctly with regard
to the
interdependencies of the components you selected.
- Verify that you have configured correctly according
to the postinstallation
configuration instructions.
- Check your directory
connectivity.
- Verify that the passwords you are using are correct.
- Verify that the Java
ES packages that should be installed are installed.
Q: What logs are available
and how will they help me?
A: Information on all
installation events is captured in
the installation logs. Always start any troubleshooting by scanning the
log events to see what errors occurred. The logs usually give you
an idea of what to do next. Two types of tracking files are available
after Java ES installation:
- Installation
Summary lists
each component
installed and the settings you specified. If you chose Configure
Now, this
summary includes all of the configuration values.
- Installation
Log displays
the installer’s
log messages.
Links to the installation
logs and summary are on the last page
of the installer. Log are located here:
- On Solaris OS: /var/sadm/install/logs
- On Linux and HP-UX: /var/opt/sun/install/logs
If a problem occurs when starting a
component, examine the troubleshooting tips tables to see the location
of
log
files for the component.
Q: What are the known
Java ES installation issues?
A: Known issues (bugs) are
problems in the Java ES software or documentation. Some of these issues
might impact installation. You
should be aware of
all known installation issues before doing an installation.
Known
issues are discussed in the following Java ES Release Notes:
Q: What
is the product registry and why should I care about it?
A: The product
registry is a repository where all packages are
registered
when they are installed. The registry contains information such as
installation
location,
product version, and component dependencies. All installed packages
have entries in the product registry. The Solaris product
registry provides a
graphical interface.
Tip
Before installation, make a
copy
of your product
registry so that you can restore it if installation fails.
The product registry is located here:
- On Solaris OS:
/var/sadm/install/productregistry
- On Linux: /var/opt/sadm/install/productregistry
- On
HP-UX: /var/adm/sw/productregistry
When packages are
removed by the uninstaller or the package remove
commands, those package entries are deleted from the product registry.
However, you might encounter a situation where your product registry
has not been fully updated. This situation causes a subsequent
installation to
fail because
those components are
still considered to be on the host (they are still in the product
registry). In this case, edit the product registry
to correctly reflect the packages that are actually
installed on your host.
In rare cases, the installer allows installation to proceed but only
installs and registers some of the packages. You might not discover
this fact until you
try to start the components. In this case, run the uninstaller allowing
it to update the
registry, and then edit the registry to reflect what is actually on the
host.
Q:
What troubleshooting topics are addressed in the Java
ES Installation Guide?
Q:
If I made a
mistake and want to erase everything and start
over, what
do I do?
A:
You can cancel an installation up to
the point where the installer has begun copying
the software to the host. If
you have gone past the point where you can cancel the installation, you
need to complete the installation, and then run the uninstaller.
The high-level steps for doing this process are as follows:
- Complete the
installation,
even if it is wrong because you
need the uninstaller,
which is
installed with the components.
- Run the
uninstaller and
uninstall everything. The uninstaller will also uninstall itself.
- Examine the product
registry to see what is recognized on the host. The
Java ES components should be removed.
- Check to see if
any Java ES directories or packages are
present. If any are present,
remove them
manually using the UNIX remove commands:
pkgrm (Solaris OS)
rpm
-e
(Linux)
swremove (HP-UX)
- Recheck the
product registry.
- Start a new
installation.
Note If all else
fails and you cannot resolve issues that are blocking a new
installation, you might have to reinstall the operating system on the
host. Be sure to back up any important data before doing this.
Q: What packages are
installed for Java ES 2005Q4?
A: To see complete
listings of the Java ES packages, refer to the
following:
Q: Where do I
get troubleshooting information for individual
components?
A: The Java ES
components have various troubleshooting tools and
tips in the tables
here.
In addition, the
Troubleshooting
Documentation Center contains links to specific troubleshooting
information for the components.
What To Do
After Installation
Q: How do I
install more components on a host after I've
already done an installation?
A: To install additional
components, you can run the installer again.
The
installer
detects the installed components and uses them to satisfy the
dependencies of
other components. Any release-compatible components that are already
installed are not
available for selection at the
Component
Selection page. For example, you have installed Access Manager
and its required
components. In a later installation session you decide to install
Portal
Server.
The installed instance of Access Manager is used to meet the
Portal Server
dependency on Access Manager, and you are not asked to install
Access Manager again.
When adding components to a
host where a Java ES installation has
already been done, be sure to specify the correct paths and passwords
if
the new component will use a component that is already installed and
configured. If you do not remember the paths or passwords, refer to the
Installation
Summary
for the original installation before
you add any
components to the host.
Q:
How do I
start using the Java ES components after
installation?
A: After you have
installed, verified, and started the Java ES
components, you can refer to the
documentation
for a particular Java ES component. If you are a new user, look
for introductory or getting started material for the component.
This
information is often in a document called Technical Overview.
Q:
If I have
already done an evaluation installation, can I
reconfigure this installation to create a production environment?
A: Reconfiguring your
evaluation installation does not usually result in a
viable production deployment.
It is best to remove your evaluation
installation of Java ES using the uninstaller. Verify that all
of
the
Java ES files from the previous release have been removed by examining
the product registry. For a final check, examine your host manually to
verify that no Java ES packages are present. Then install your
