CHAPTER 3
Creating Embedded EAServer
Installations
You can silently run the EAServer installer. If you are packaging
EAServer with your own software, you may want to create a scripted
EAServer installer that runs as a subinstall of your own installation
procedure, so your end users install EAServer without any installer
interaction.
Additionally, EAServer provides tools for scripted configuration of the
installation, including customization of server properties, and installation
of your own components and application files to EAServer.
Configuring and running the silent installer
The silent installer is a Java program. The installation CD contains a
sample batch file to run the install with the correct JRE and CLASSPATH
settings. An additional text file specifies the installation type and options.
These instructions assume that you will include the EAServer install files
and customized installer scripts with the install media for your own
software.
❖ Configuring the silent installer
1 Create a directory for your install image.
2 Copy the following files from the EAServer installation CD to your
install image:
• EAS550.jar.
• readme.htm (optional; if you are installing the HTML
documentation, this file contains additional documentation).
