Unpack the Oracle Empirica Signal patch files

On the application server running Oracle Empirica Signal 9.2.0.x, create a directory to unpack and run the upgrade script.

  1. As the non-privileged user, on the application server running Oracle Empirica Signal 9.2, start a command shell (for example, Putty).
  2. Create a temporary directory <Signal9202> (for example, /u01/stage/Signal9202), and unpack ESI_9.2.0.2.zip into it.
  3. In the temporary directory, open the file update_Signal.sh and verify that directory /u01/stage/Signal_Install (hereafter referred to as <INSTALL_DIR>), specified in the file, exists.
    Change the script to point to the correct location if the actual <INSTALL_DIR> location is different.
  4. From the temporary directory, give the shell script execute permissions and run it:
    $ chmod +x update_Signal.sh
    $ ./update_Signal.sh

    Verify that the script prints Completed and that there are no errors.

  5. Verify that there is a backup copy of <INSTALL_DIR>, for example:
    • Signal_Install.9_2_0_0_527_bkp
    • Signal_Install.9_2_0_1_586_bkp
  6. Verify the <INSTALL_DIR>/Signal/Web-INF/lib directory includes the following file, where XXX is the build number:
    Signal-9_2_0_2_xxx.jar
