Table 2-1 Environment Setup

Environment Setup Description
Property File Creation Two property files are generated:
  • "fcubs.properties" required for application (EAR).
  • "env.properties" common property required for environment setup.

For more information, refer to Oracle FLEXCUBE Universal Banking Property File Creation

Populating environment property file The Database properties are to be populated from the "env.properties" generated during property file creation. The rest of the properties are to be manually updated.
NLS LANG settings Before moving to the DB setup, the NLS_LANG parameter has to be added to the local system environment variables.
For Windows
  1. This can be done by browsing to My Computer\Properties\Advanced system settings\Environment Variables or Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\System\Advanced system settings\Environment Variables. Here, the NLS_LANG parameter can be added with variable name as NLS_LANG and value as AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8. Refer to System Property screen.
  2. After this, go to Run(shortcut: Windows+R), enter regedit, and click OK. It will open Registry Editor. Here, under Oracle DB KEY, the NLS_LANG parameter can be added with variable name as NLS_LANG and value as AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8 as shown in the Registry Editor screen.
  3. After this, please do a System Restart(Shutdown->Restart) to reflect the changes.
For Linux This can be done by opening a command bash shell and by setting environment variables in the command prompt export NLS_LANG= AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8.

By running the above command in the installer, the location will set the environment variable in the linux shell/terminal.
