Installation - Linux Server
If your server is a Linux machine, you should use the relevant command line version of the HansaWorld Enterprise application as your server application. If the machine itself has a graphical interface and is accessible, you can install this application following the procedure described in step 5 on the
single-user page. If the machine does not have a graphical interface or you want to use the Terminal, follow these steps:
- Download the latest version of HansaWorld Enterprise that is correct for your platform and operating system (i.e. the Linux Command Line or Linux PPC Command Line version).
- Put the machine into "Terminal" mode using the Terminal icon in the Dock or Panel.
- Type the following, remembering that the Terminal environment on Linux is case-sensitive:
- mkdir /Applications/HansaWorld
- creates a new "HansaWorld" directory inside the "Applications" directory at the root level.
- cp /Users/username/Desktop/hw-install-release-server-linux.tgz /applications/hansaworld
- copies the installer file (named hw-install-release-server-linux.tgz in this example) from the desktop to the new "HansaWorld" directory.
- cd /Applications/HansaWorld/
- makes the "HansaWorld" directory the current directory.
- tar -xvzf hw-install-release-server-linux.tgz
- expands the hw-install-release-server-linux.tgz installer file. A new directory will be created in your "HansaWorld" directory. This new directory will be named "hansaworld-linux-release-server" (Linux Intel) or "hansaworld-linuxppc-release-server" (Linux PPC). This will contain the application and the necessary auxiliary files.
- rm -xvzf hw-install-release-server-linux.tgz
- deletes the installer file.
