AddonSoftware Administration - Install Packaged Addon Installation

 

Function

This utility unpackages a Barista installation from a jar file previously created with the Package Addon Installation utility. It updates the path and directory references to the new installation location so the new installation is ready to use without manual configuration changes. Refer to the adx_unjaraon log file created in the installation base directory for processing details.

 

NOTE: The Install Packaged Addon Installation utility cannot install directories that were skipped by the Package Addon Installation utility and are not in the jar file. For installation using a version-neutral directory structure, this means the following directories will not exist in the new installation.

 

Top level directory:

  • cust_images

  • documents

  • images

Major version directory (lies directly under the top level directory):

  • data

If these directories are needed, they must be manually copied to the new location and the relevant addon.syn file paths updated accordingly.

 

=> To access this task...

Select Install Packaged Addon Installation from the Install/Upgrade Utilities and Move Addon Installation Utilities folders located under the Utilities menu.
