5 Part 4 – (Optional) Install Electronic Document Delivery

This part contains the topic:

This optional section covers installing the World Electronic Document Delivery (EDD) folder on your System i Integrated File System (IFS). You only need to do this step if you will use World EDD.

5.1 (Optional) Install Electronic Document Delivery

5.1.1 Installation Steps

  1. After running the A94 installation program, restore the EDDIFS SAVF to the System I IFS ”root/WORLD_EDD_A94” folder.

    RST DEV('/QSYS.LIB/JDEINSTAL2.LIB/EDDIFS.FILE')

    OBJ(('/WORLD_EDD_A94_BUILD/*' *INCLUDE '/WORLD_EDD_A94'))

    SUBTREE(*ALL) OUTPUT(*PRINT) CRTPRNDIR(*YES) ALWOBJDIF(*ALL)

  2. Set *PUBLIC authority on EDD folder. You will need proper authority to execute the command.

    CALL PGM(J00EAUTH) PARM('/WORLD_EDD_A94')

  3. There is one .jar file that needs to be placed in the /WORLD_EDD_A94/lib folder:

    jt400.jar

    The /WORLD_EDD_A94/ lib folder is delivered with Read/Execute authority only. You will need to grant write authority to the /WORLD_EDD_A94/lib folder in order to copy the jt400.jar file.

    If this file exists in the /lib folder from a previous EDD install, you can simply copy it to the /WORLD_EDD_A94/lib folder. If this is a new install of EDD, you will need to install the required jt400.jar file following the instructions for A9.4 specified in Doc ID 1349790.1 in My Oracle Support at:

    Note:

    If you are upgrading from a previous EDD install, you can copy/replace the xdodelivery.cfg file from your current EDD installation/resource folder to the ”WORLD_EDD_A94/resource/” folder. If copying this file from a previous install, you will have to modify the location of the ds-temp-dir as shown:

    <property name="ds-temp-dir">/World_EDD_A94/temp</property>

  4. Use the XDODelivery Maintenance application (4/G00E41) to configure your EDD server parameters and encrypt password fields. Refer to the A9.4 Technical Tools Guide for instructions on how to edit the xdodelivery.cfg file which will encrypt password fields.
