    chmod 751 unzip_<os>

  9. Extract the contents of the 8.1.2.11.0 ML archive file by using either of the following commands:

    unzip <name of the file to be unzipped>

  10. Navigate to OFS_LLFP_PACK and edit params.conf and set WEBSERVER_TYPE to Tomcat, WebLogic or WebSphere, and the corresponding WEBSERVER_VERSION as applicable.
    • Possible values for WEBSERVER_TYPE are WEBLOGIC, TOMCAT, and WEBSPHERE. For example, WEBSERVER_TYPE=WEBLOGIC
    • Possible values for WEBSERVER_VERSION are 14.1.1, 14.1.2 , 15.1.1, 9.0.107, 10.1.48, and 9.0.5.23. For example, WEBSERVER_VERSION=15.1.1

      Note:

      In the above configuration, for example , Tomcat, can support 9.0.x for Java 8 11 and 17 and 10.1.x on Java 17.

Finally, Websphere can support 9.0.5.x for Java 8, where x is the latest released version.
  11. Update the params.conf configuration file that is present in the OFS_LLFP_PACK/ appsLibConfig/conf folder before triggering the installation. The update instructions are present in this file.

      1. Tomcat: <Tomcat installation folder>/work/Catalina/localhost/<Application name>/org/apache/jsp
      2. Weblogic: <Weblogic installation location>/domains/<Domain name>/servers/<Server name>/tmp/_WL_user/<Application name>
      3. Websphere: <Websphere installation directory>/AppServer/profiles/<Profile name>/temp/<Node name>/server1/<Application name>/<.war file name>
  16. Delete the existing EAR/WAR file available in the folder $FIC_HOME/ficweb.
  17. Generate the application EAR/WAR file and redeploy the application onto your configured Web Application Server. For more information on generating and deploying the EAR/ WAR file, see Create and Deploy the EAR or WAR Files in OFS AAI Release 8.1.2.0.0 Installation and Configuration Guide.
