Installing the latest Process Engine Client files silently

You can install the Process Engine Client software on the Application Engine by using a silent input text file and running the installation program from the command line. Use the values in your installation worksheet to edit the silent input text file before you run the installation.

Be sure that you have available the Installation and Upgrade Worksheet that was completed during your planning activities.

To install the Process Engine Client files:

  1. In the worksheet file, verify that the Data > Filter > AutoFilter command is enabled. To view only Content Engine values, filter by PE Client Installer in the Installation or Configuration Program column.
  2. On the machine where Application Engine is to be deployed, log on as the ae_install_user.
  3. Copy the Process Engine Client install software from the Process Engine installation software to the temporary directory. The version of the install software must match the version of Process Engine.
  4. Expand the compressed Process Engine Client install software file within the temporary directory. The jre.tar file that is packaged with the Process Engine Client installer must be in the same directory as the Process Engine Client installer when the installer is run. The expanded install software contains the Process Engine Client install program specific to the operating system on the machine where Application Engine is deployed.
  5. Edit the peclient_silent_install.txt file using the values from your Installation and Upgrade Worksheet.
  6. Start the installation program by running the following command:
    Operating System Install Program
    AIX®
    5.0.0-P8PE-CLIENT-AIX.BIN -f 
     peclient_silent_install.txt
    HPUX
    5.0.0-P8PE-CLIENT-HPUX.BIN -f 
    peclient_silent_install.txt
    HPUXi
    5.0.0-P8PE-CLIENT-HPUXI.BIN -f 
    peclient_silent_install.txt
    Linux®
    5.0.0-P8PE-CLIENT-LINUX.BIN -f 
    peclient_silent_install.txt
    Solaris
    5.0.0-P8PE-CLIENT-SOL.BIN -f 
    peclient_silent_install.txt
    Windows®
    5.0.0-P8PE-CLIENT-WIN.EXE -f 
    peclient_silent_install.txt
    zLinux
    5.0.0-P8PE-CLIENT-ZLINUX.BIN -f 
    peclient_silent_install.txt
  7. If the Process Engine is configured to use the IPv6 network protocol, locate and edit the taskman.properties file and add the following lines to that file:
    -Djava.net.preferIPv6Addresses=true
    -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=false
