Filename: readme.install.unix.fixpak.txt TeamConnection for UNIX, Version 2.0, Fixpak 9 Installation from tar files Date last updated: January 27, 1998 A) How to get the files for the fixpak in the Internet ------------------------------------------------------ You can get the files for the fixpak for TeamConnection from the IBM Software FTP site in the Internet. You can use ftp or a web browser to get the code. The following instructions show the sequence of steps needed when using ftp. * Create a directory to store the files to be downloaded. Create one directory for the specified platform, such as aix4 or hpux10. For example, to create the aix4 directory do: mkdir aix4 Ensure that you store all the files for a platform in the proper directory and ensure that you do not mix files from different platforms. That is, do not store AIX files in the directory for HP-UX, because the files have the same name. * Change to the directory mentioned in the previous step. For example, to change to the aix4 directory do: cd aix4 * Invoke the command: ftp ftp.software.ibm.com * Login as: anonymous * Enter your email address at the password prompt. * Change the directory to: cd ps/products/teamconnection * Change the directory to fixes: cd fixes * Change the directory to the desired platform: cd aix or cd hpux * Change the directory to fixpak--- (where --- is the fixpak number): cd fixpak--- * Specify to transfer the files in binary mode: binary * Download the following required file that contains the installation shell script and other important files: get required.tar.Z * Download the appropriate required file that contains the message catalog for your language (WARNING: do NOT change the file name!): get msgXXXXX.tar.Z Where XXXXX represents one of the following locales: en_us -> locale "en_US" for English in USA ja_jp -> locale "Ja_JP" for Japanese in Japan (PC code page) eucjp -> locale "ja_JP" for Japanese in Japan (euc code page) euckr -> locale "ko_KR" for Korean in Korea pt_pt -> locale "Pt_PT" for Portuguese in Portugal (PC code page) pt_br -> locale "pt_BR" for Portuguese in Brazil (ISO code page) zh_tw -> locale "Zh_TW" for Traditional Chinese (PC code page) euctw -> locale "zh_TW" for Traditional Chinese (euc code page) euccn -> locale "zh_CN" for Simplified Chinese in People's Republic of China * Download the components that you want to install: server.tar.Z -> TeamConnection Family Server client.tar.Z -> TeamConnection Client (line commands and GUI) bldagnt.tar.Z -> TeamConnection Build Agent bldproc.tar.Z -> TeamConnection Build Processor mvsproc.tar.Z -> TeamConnection MVS Build Processor (needed if installing the Build Processor) * Exit ftp: quit B) How to process the installation files and install the code ------------------------------------------------------------- After you have downloaded the files from section A, then you need to do the following: * Uncompress all the *.Z files by using the UNIX utility "uncompress". For example, to uncompress the "required.tar.Z" file and obtain an uncompressed file named "required.tar" (without the .Z suffix) do: uncompress required.tar.Z * Ensure that all the files are uncompressed. * After you have uncompressed the files, untar (decompose) the following file in order to obtain the installation shell script and the readme files: tar -xvf required.tar * Proceed to read the late breaking news in: readme.txt * The complete installation instructions are described in the files: readme.aix readme.hp * Ensure that you read the warnings and prerequisites mentioned in the above files. * Ensure that the file permissions of the installation shell script are correct: chmod 755 tcinst.ksh * Ensure that you are logged in as "root", otherwise you will not be able to install the TeamConnection code. * Invoke the installation shell script and specify that you are using tar files: ./tcinst.ksh tar * Follow the instructions from the installation shell script. * Now you are ready to use the latest version of TeamConnection! # end of file
