1 Oracle Team Productivity Center Server System Requirements

For the most current system requirements, please refer to the Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle JDeveloper.

2 Installing the Oracle Team Productivity Center Server

The installation software for Oracle Team Productivity Center Server is distributed as a platform-independent JAR file. Download the Oracle Team Productivity Center Server installation JAR file from the Oracle Technology Network (OTN) web site: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/jdev/downloads/index.html

You can choose to install the Oracle Team Productivity Center Server either as a new installation or as an update to an existing server. The installation software is the same, but there are slight differences in the procedure for installing the server depending on whether you are creating a new installation or upgrading an existing one. Instructions for installing a new server or updating an existing one are included in Section 2.4, "Installer Screens for Server Installation".

2.1 Before You Begin

Before installing the Oracle Team Productivity Center Server, take note of the following terms that will help manage the server during and after installation:

- Client—the set of features in Oracle JDeveloper that allow interaction with team members, selecting work items, and otherwise tracking project development.

- Server—the software that manages the connections between the team's TPC features in Oracle JDeveloper and data repositories (such as a bug database, feature wiki, or directory of product features and specifications).

- Connector—the element that defines the data structures and user interface between Oracle Team Productivity Center and a given data repository. For example, presenting a list of bugs from the bug tracking tool in Oracle JDeveloper requires a connector to the bug tracking tool. For more information on this, see the online help for developing a connector (look up how to craft such a link).

- Plugin—Oracle Team Productivity Center uses a distinct plugin for each automated build system. The plugin is installed on the server for its automated build system, and sends data to Oracle Team Productivity Center.

The Oracle Team Productivity Center installation package can perform the following functions:

- to perform the initial installation of the server

- to install or update connectors that the existing server installation will be able to access (such as project tracking software, or a feature/specification repository)

- to install or update plugins to external servers (such as build, test, or continuous integration servers) that the existing Oracle Team Productivity Center Server can access

- to install or update the Hudson continuous integration server

It is possible to install the Oracle Team Productivity Center software without installing a connector at the same time. Installing a new connector can be performed at any time after the installation of the server software. Additionally, it is possible to install the Hudson continuous integration server without integrating it with Oracle Team Productivity Center.

2.2 Prerequisites for Installation

Before you run the installer, ensure that the following prerequisites are satisfied:

- Installation requires entering a user ID and password for the database to which Oracle Team Productivity Center is to be connected. Make sure that you have all user privileges that you require for full access to this database before beginning installation. For example, if an Oracle database is used, please make sure the user has been granted Connect and Resource options.

- Make sure to download the Oracle Team Productivity Server installation package, available from the Oracle Technology Network (OTN) web site: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/jdev/downloads/index.html

- If you are using Oracle WebLogic Server as the installation server, make sure you are using 11g Release 1 (10.3.6).

Make a note of the directory containing the downloaded installation file, called tpcinstaller.jar. Installation requires navigating to that directory and executing a command-line instruction to install Oracle Team Productivity Center.

Make sure the system on which Oracle Team Productivity Server is to be installed is running the latest JDK, as required by the Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle JDeveloper.

2.3 Starting the Installer

The Oracle Team Productivity Center Server installation package is a JAR file. The package can be installed on Windows, Linux, or Mac OS X platforms that meet the Oracle JDeveloper standard requirements. The installation system must also be running a Java EE application server, on which the Oracle Team Productivity Center server will run when installed.

Installation begins from the command line; after launching the installer, it will continue with a sequence of installation screens containing selections as the installer proceeds with the installation.

To start the installer:

1. Navigate to the directory containing the Oracle Team Productivity Center installation file, tpcinstaller.jar.

2. From a command line (that is, a Linux or DOS command shell), type the following command, substituting the installation system's JAVA_HOME directory where indicated:
set JAVA_HOME=location of java_home

For example, on a Windows system with JDK 1.6.0_39 installed in the Program Files directory on the C:\ drive, the command would be:

set JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_39

3. When the preceding command completes and the system command-line prompt is once again visible, type the following command:
set PATH=%JAVA_HOME%\bin;%PATH%

4. When the preceding command completes and the system command-line prompt is once again visible, type the following command:
java -jar tpcinstaller.jar

This launches the Oracle Team Productivity Center installer, which proceeds with a number of screens as shown in the following section.

2.4 Installer Screens for Server Installation

The installer provides several screens, which specify various parameters for the installation. Depending on whether you are installing Oracle Team Productivity Center for the first time, or updating an existing installation, the responses you give to the screens may change.

12. After installation is complete:
The Oracle Team Productivity Center installer only ships with the Oracle JDBC Driver. If a database other than Oracle (for example, MySQL) is used, you need to make that database's driver available for your Application Server to use. In some case, you need to copy the driver to the designated folder of your Application Server before you can bring up and connect to Oracle Team Productivity Center Server.

For WebLogic, the MySQL JDBC driver is installed in the folder <WL_HOME>/server/lib through weblogic.jar. It will be loaded when the server starts. Therefore, you do not need to do anything for this driver. If you plan to use a JDBC driver other than Oracle and MySQL, specifically one that is not installed with the WebLogic folder, see "Third-Party JDBC Drivers Installed with WebLogic Server."

Note:
If you use a WebLogic domain for TPC server installation, copy the driver to your <JDEV_HOME>/user_projects/domains/<domain>/lib folder instead.
If you are using Oracle JDeveloper Studio, MySQL JDBC driver is shipped in <JDEV_HOME>/oracle/wlserver_10.3/server/ext/jdbc/mysql/mysql-connector-java-commercial-5.0.3-bin.jar.

Start Oracle JDeveloper and download and install the Oracle Team Productivity Center client extension. To download the extension in Oracle JDeveloper, click the Help menu, and then select Check for Updates. The online Help for Oracle Team Productivity Center contains instructions for the administrator on how to set up Team Productivity Center inside Oracle JDeveloper.

2.5 Upgrading Oracle Team Productivity Center Server with Apache Tomcat 6.0.20

When the Oracle Team Productivity Center installer is used to update a Team Productivity Center server running on Apache Tomcat version 6.0.20, any new or updated Team Productivity Center web service classes cannot be auto-deployed correctly by the server. This causes an Oracle Team Productivity Center login issue, as observed in the server's log file. Upgrading the Team Productivity Center server running on other versions of Apache Tomcat does not have this problem.This is due to an issue with Apache Tomcat 6.0.20. When using this version of Apache Tomcat, updates to Team Productivity Center web service classes are not properly re-deployed, even with autoDeploy set to "true" in the Tomcat server.xml file.To resolve this issue:

1. Complete the Oracle Team Productivity Center update, as described in Section 2.3, "Starting the Installer" and Section 2.4, "Installer Screens for Server Installation".

2. If the Tomcat server is running, shut it down.

3. Delete the folder <tomcat_install_folder>\webapps\otpc.

4. Restart the Tomcat server.

If you are using MySQL with Tomcat, download the driver from your provider, then copy the driver to your <TOMCAT_HOME>/lib folder.

If you are using Oracle JDeveloper Studio, the MySQL JDBC driver is shipped in <JDEV_HOME>/oracle/wlserver_10.3/server/ext/jdbc/mysql/mysql-connector-java-commercial-5.0.3-bin.jar.

2.6 Backward Compatibility with Previous Oracle Team Productivity Center Server and Client Versions

Backward compatibility is supported on a limited basis between Oracle Team Productivity Center Server and Oracle Team Productivity Center client software as follows:

- If you install a newer server with older clients, you will not be able to log in to the server with the older client.

- If you install newer clients with an older server, the clients will be able to log in to the older server.

For best results and full compatibility, it is recommended that you update both the client and the server software when you install a new version of Oracle Team Productivity Center.

3 Installing an Oracle Team Productivity Center Connector

Installing a connector begins by launching the Oracle Team Productivity Center installer, as described in Section 2.3, "Starting the Installer". When you launch the installer, select the information from the installer screens as described below.
