Section - 1 : Installing the System

Follow these steps to install the Oracle Documaker Mobile on a computer running Linux. Oracle Documaker Standard or Enterprise Edition is a pre-requisite for the installation, so make sure to download and install a compatible version of Oracle Documaker Mobile to match your installation of Oracle Documaker Standard Edition or Oracle Documaker Enterprise Edition.

Note:

Re-installation of Oracle Documaker Mobile to the same location will update the mobile components in the previously installed directory. Therefore, if you want to retain a prior version for comparison, take a back up of the mobile files.

To re-install Oracle Documaker Mobile, make sure that you uninstall the existing Oracle Documaker Mobile Installation.

Before you begin

Make sure you have full directory access permissions (read/write/execute) to the directory into which you will be installing Documaker Mobile.

Installation

Follow these steps to install the Oracle Documaker Mobile:

  1. Log on to the UNIX system using the account you want to use for the installation.
  2. Unzip the file you downloaded from the Oracle Software Delivery Cloud website. Included in this file is a readme file and an installer.
  3. Run the installer using either a Korn or a Bash shell prompt.
    The initial installation screen describes the type of installation, displays the default directory the installation will use, and lets you override the installation location.
Note:

The default installation location for Oracle Documaker Mobile is the default installation location for Oracle Documaker Enterprise Edition. If you have changed your Oracle Documaker Enterprise Edition location or you are installing to use with Oracle Documaker Standard Edition, you will want to update the installation directory for Oracle Documaker Mobile or install to another location and then move the resulting files to Oracle Documaker Standard or Enterprise Edition install location.

All paths and file names must be in lowercase.

Configuring Your System Installation

The Oracle Documaker Mobile Installation provides the components to process documents into mobile output.

If you have installed into the Oracle Documaker Enterprise Edition installation directory, you will need to:

  • Locate the xml snippet files in the mobile_install\mstrres\mobile directory and the json snippet files in the mobile_install\mstrres\mobile\json_snippets directory. Copy them to the mstrres\dmres\mrolib directory that contains the supporting master resource library for mobile processing. If you plan to use another directory to store the mobile resources for mobile processing, copy the files to the location defined by the <MasterResources> mrolib configuration option in your ODEE environment.

If you did not install to the Oracle Documaker Enterprise Edition installation directory, you will need to:

  • Complete the step above where the xml snippet files can be found in the mobile_install\mstrres\mobile directory and the json snippet files can be found in the mobile_install\mstrres\mobile\json_snippets directory.
  • Verify if the libmro.so file is present from the installed location to the documaker \bin directory on the Oracle Documaker Document Factory application tier.

If you installed into the Oracle Documaker Standard Edition, you will need to:

  • Locate the xml snippet files in the oracle\odee_1\mobile_install\mstrres\mobile directory and the json snippet files in the mobile_install\mstrres\mobile\json_snippets directory. Copy them to the FAP\mstrres\dmres\mrolib directory that contains the supporting master resource library for mobile processing. If you plan to use another directory to store the mobile resources for mobile processing, copy the files to the location defined by the <MasterResources> mrolib configuration option in your ODSE environment.
  • Verify if the libmro.so file is present from the installed location to the Documaker scratch/home/<user>/relxxx/bin directory. where xxx is the release number.
    • Example : /scratch/home/<user>/rel1263/bin

To enable mobile output in ODEE, use the Documaker Administrator web application to configure the output type, destination, and handling as per the Oracle Documaker Mobile User Guide.

To enable mobile output in ODSE, follow the instructions given in Oracle Documaker Mobile User Guide.
