System information
IMPORTANT
The 64-bit Solaris version of the Certificate System requires the user to install the 32-bit
version of the JRE as well as installing the 64-bit version. The 32-bit version is used for
the applet and Java™ Web Start support. Read ht-
tp://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/README.html, ht-
tp://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/ReleaseNotes.html, and ht-
tp://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/jre/install-solaris-64.html before installing the Certificate
System.
Under the section Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 5.0 Update 9, Sun only makes this JRE available
through a self-extracting file which is incompatible with Certificate System since this format does not
use the native Solaris packaging utility database.
It is possible to obtain the Sun 5.0 JRE in a compatible format. Click Download under the JDK 5.0 Up-
date 9 section, and, under Solaris SPARC Platform - J2SETM Development Kit 5.0 Up-
date 9, select Solaris SPARC 32-bit packages - tar.Z
(jdk-1_5_0_09-solaris-sparc.tar.Z) and Solaris SPARC 64-bit packages - tar.Z
(use 32-bit version for applet and Java Web Start support)
(jdk-1_5_0_09-solaris-sparcv9.tar.Z).
After downloading these two files, uncompress them using the gunzip utility, and extract the contents
using the tar utility.
The contents of the 32-bit file, jdk-1_5_0_09-solaris-sparc.tar.Z, are COPYRIGHT,
LICENSE, README.html, SUNWj5cfg, SUNWj5dev, SUNWj5dmo, SUNWj5jmp, SUNWj5man, and
SUNWj5rt.
The contents of the 64-bit file, jdk-1_5_0_09-solaris-sparcv9.tar.Z, are SUNWj5dmx, SUN-
Wj5dvx, and SUNWj5rtx.
Since only the JRE is needed on Solaris 9 systems, use the pkgadd utility to add the 32-bit package,
SUNWj5rt, first, and then add the 64-bit package, SUNWj5rtx.
5.3. Required JDK
A JDK must be present on Red Hat Enterprise Linux systems. See ht-
tp://kbase.redhat.com/faq/FAQ_54_4667.shtm for more information. While almost any JDK is suffi-
cient, installing one of these JDKs is recommended:
•
For 32-bit Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 platforms, a pre-packaged binary distribution of the 32-bit ver-
sion of the IBM JDK 1.5.0, java-1.5.0-ibm-devel-1.5.0.0-1jpp_2rh:0.i386, is available
through either the Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS (v. 4 for x86) Extras Red Hat Network channel or
the Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES (v. 4 for x86) Extras Red Hat Network channel.
•
For 64-bit Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 platforms, a pre-packaged binary distribution of the 64-bit ver-
sion of the IBM JDK 1.5.0, java-1.5.0-ibm-devel-1.5.0.0-1jpp_2rh:0.x86_64, is avail-
able through either the Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS (v. 4 for AMD64/EM64T) Extras Red Hat
Network channel or the Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES (v. 4 for AMD64/EM64T) Extras Red Hat
Network channel.
