Install guide

Installation

The latest WOW point product release can be obtained by electronic delivery using the

Landmark Software Manager (requires PeopleSoft login and password). The

downloadable setup.tar.gz file is listed under the product name WebApps, and

includes WOW, Corporate Data Archiver, and Project Administrator. Alternatively, the

media can be obtained on DVD.

The release requires re-installation (new sites) or upgrade (existing sites) of the WebApps

software, as described below.

Upgrading WebApps using InstallAnywhere (existing sites only)

• Download the setup.tar.gz file using the Landmark Software Manager (requires

PeopleSoft login and password), or obtain it from DVD.

• Login to the WebApps server as the current WebApps software tree owner.

• Source the OpenWorks environment if not done by default:

prompt> source $OWHOME/templates/.lgclogin (if C shell)

prompt> . $OWHOME/templates/.lgcprofile (if Bourne shell)

• Extract and run the installer:

prompt> gzip -dc setup.tar.gz | tar xf -

prompt> sh setup.bin

• Continue through the installation wizard, accepting license terms and confirming the

existing OWHOME and WOW_HOME locations. The installer will rename the current

WebApps directory, create a new WebApps directory and extract the new media into

it, then launch the WebAppsUpgrade upgrade script to copy the main configuration

files from the old to the new WebApps directory. No additional Apache configuration is

required; the existing Apache server will be utilized.

Installing WebApps using InstallAnywhere (new sites only)

The overall installation process consists of installing the latest point product release, then

applying any subsequent patches or updates, as described in this section.
