Installation¶
Server¶
Automatic mode¶
Warning
- Basic configuration to respect before starting the installation:
- the network interface is correctly configured on the server
- access to official repositories is available
- using a Linux CentOS 7 or equivalent RedHat system
Installation of the solution can be done using the install.sh script in the tar.gz.
If the prerequisites are respected then the installation will be done in automatic mode, that is to say that the missing packets
will be recovered automatically.
Example of installation in automatic mode
./install.sh
Are you sure to install the product? (yes or no) yes

After retrieving the sources from github you have to recompose the different directories
| core-server | /opt/xtc/vXXX |
| plugins-adapters | </opt..>/SutAdapters/vXXX |
| plugins-libraries | </opt..>/SutLibraries/vXXX |
| test-interop | </opt..>/TestInterop/ |
| test-library | </opt..>/TestExecutorLib/ |
| web-client | </opt..>/Web |
Preparation of the database
To initialize the database, execute the “add-bdd.py” scripts available in the /Scripts/database directory.
Starting the server
Run the python run scripts available at the root of the /opt/xtc/vXXX/ directory.
