  • Ensure that the following environmental variables are set:

    JAVA_HOME=/opt/jdkVersion
PATH=JAVA_HOME/jdkVersion/bin;$PATH
MW_HOME=/opt/Oracle/Middleware/Oracle_Home

where Version is the JDK software version. To install and deploy MSS, do the following:

  1. From directory where the file was downloaded, enter the following command:

    java -jar MSS.RreleaseNumber.bbuild_AppServerInstaller.jar

    where releaseNumber is the MSS software release version and build is the build number. For example:

    java -jar MSS.R6_3.b400_AppServerInstaller.jar

    Note:

    For 64-bit systems, use the following java_options parameter: -d64.

    The Select MetaSolv home directory window appears.

  2. From the Look In list, click the down arrow and select a directory in which the installer files can be stored and used during the installation process, then click Select.

    A directory named installer is automatically created in the selected directory. Oracle recommends choosing your MSLV_Home directory for this task.

    The installer auto-launches the installation process by invoking setup.sh (UNIX/Linux) or setup.cmd (Windows) in the MSLV_Home/installer directory.

    Worksheet references and example values:

    Field name Worksheet reference number Example value
