Using the workshop_install GUI
This section describes the steps to follow to use the workshop_install GUI.
-
Start workshop_install by typing:
# ./workshop_install
Note -Do not type an ampersand (&) to run workshop_install in the background.
-
When prompted, decide in which directory you want to install your software.
See "Previous Software Releases" if you want to install this new Sun WorkShop release on a machine with previous Sun WorkShop releases.
The software will be installed by default in /opt. Okay to use the default, /opt? <y|n>:
The installation directory you choose is your default installation directory for this workshop_install session.
-
To install the software in a directory other than /opt, type n and the location where you want the software installed.
-
To install in /opt, type y.
After a few moments, the WorkShop Install window opens (see Figure 3-1).

-
-
Decide if you want to install only 32-bit packages or both 32-bit and 64-bit packages.
Note -The default installation for the SPARC platform installs both 32-bit and 64-bit packages.
-
If you want to install both 32-bit and 64-bit packages, skip to Step 4.
-
If you want to install only 32-bit packages, deselect the checkbox next to 64-Bit Installation at the bottom of the WorkShop Install window. By deselecting the checkbox next to 64-Bit Installation, you are asking that only 32-bit packages be installed (all 64-bit-specific packages will be skipped during installation).
-
-
Click the checkbox next to FLEXlm License Manager Software and Utilities in the WorkShop Install window to install FLEXlm 6.1.
Note -If your application server and your license server are different machines, install FLEXlm 6.1 license manager software on your license server, not on your application server (install your Sun WorkShop development tools on your application server).
You must install FLEXlm version 6.1 (available with this release) to get the new sunwlicd vendor daemon binary; otherwise, licensing will not function properly.
If you are upgrading to FLEXlm 6.1 from an earlier FLEXlm version, you will automatically bring down your license manager during the upgrade. After you install your new licenses in Chapter 4, Installing Your Licenses, the license installation tool will start your license manager again. During the upgrade, your licensed software will be unavailable.
-
Click the checkboxes next to the Sun WorkShop development tools you want to install.
Use your Proof of License Certificate to determine which software you purchased.
Install your software development tools on your application server (your application server and your license server can be the same machine).
When you click the checkbox next to a Sun WorkShop development tool, you are asking to install all product components. In Step 6, you can customize your installation and deselect product components from installation.
To install Sun WorkShop online document collections (in AnswerBook2 format), scroll down and click the checkbox next to WS AnswerBook2 Document Collections 5.0. After you install your Sun WorkShop AnswerBook2 document collections, you must add the Sun WorkShop AnswerBook2 document collections to your AnswerBook2 Documentation Server. For information about adding and working with document collections, see Installing and Administering an AnswerBook2 Server online in the AnswerBook2 Help Collection, in your Solaris printed documentation, or on the web at http://docs.sun.com. For information about downloading AnswerBook2 Documentation Server software packages and viewing Sun WorkShop AnswerBook2 document collections, see Chapter 6, Viewing Online Documents.

Decide if you want to customize the software installation.
If you do not want to customize your software installation, skip to Step 9.
Follow these steps to customize the installation (deselect product components) of your Sun WorkShop software:
-
In the left side of the WorkShop Install window, click on the name of the Sun WorkShop tool to be customized.
-
Click Customize.
The Customize Installation window opens (see Figure 3-2) with the list of components for the software tool you selected.
Click Deselect All, and then click the checkbox next to the components you want to install.
To get software component descriptions, click on the name of the component in the left side of the Customize Installation window.
To view a software tool's components, click the arrow to the left of the component name in the left side of the Customize Installation window. See also Table A-3 in Appendix A, Sun WorkShop Products and Packages for product package components.
Note -If you deselect a software tool for installation that has a component that is required by another piece of software, the checkbox next to the component required by another piece of software in the left side of the window changes from selected to half-filled.
If you want to change the default installation directory for the product you are customizing, type the name of an alternate installation directory in the Installation Directory text box in the Customize Installation window. With your cursor still in the Installation Directory text box, press Return.
