Identifying the Installation Directory, Download and Metadata Repository Directories

4.3.1 Identifying the Installation Directory, Download and Metadata Repository Directories

To install any of the OFSAA Application Packs, the following folders/ directories are required to be created.

OFSAA Download Directory (Optional): Create a download directory and copy the OFSAA Application Pack Installer File (Archive). This is the directory where the downloaded installer/ patches can be copied.
OFSAA Installation Directory (Mandatory): Create an installation directory. This is the direc- tory where the installer installs or copies the product files.
OFSAA Staging/Metadata Directory (Mandatory): Create a Staging/ Metadata Repository Directory. This is the directory where you should copy data loading files, save data extracts and so on. Additionally, this folder also maintains the OFSAA metadata artifacts. This is commonly referred as "FTPSHARE".

NOTE Ensure the user permission is set to 755 on the installation directory.

Ensure the user permission is set to 777 on the Staging Directory.

Ensure the OFSAA staging directory is not set to the same path as the OFSAA installation directory and is not a sub-folder inside the OFSAA installation directory.
