Installation

Before installing ActiveVOS, ensure that you have access to your ActiveVOS Designer or Process Server licenses. Evaluation customers only need a license for ActiveVOS Designer and can use the embedded runtime engine for deployments. A link to download licenses was emailed to you or your company shortly after your purchase or evaluation request.

Console-Mode Installation

You can run the installation from the command line in console mode by using the following commands:
  • On Windows
    start/wait installer.exe -c
  • On Linux
    installer.sh -c

Installing Designer on Windows 7

ActiveVOS Designer writes to a number of directories within its installation path; for example, the ActiveVOS embedded Server. Windows 7 implements security mechanisms that can prevent modifications to files located in Program Files and other folders that are managed by the operating system. If this is how your system is configured, installing ActiveVOS Designer under Program Files could result in errors when starting the embedded server and deploying processes to it.
Here are potential workarounds:
  • Install ActiveVOS Designer in a directory to which you have full permissions such as C:\ActiveVOS.
  • Run ActiveVOS Designer using the
    Run as administrator
    option.
  • Turn off User Account Control (UAC) from Windows 7 by setting UAC to
    Never Notify.
  • Modify the rights of the following folder to grant
    modify
    access to your account. Be sure that the new permission is copied down this entire directory structure:
    [ActiveVOS Installation Directory]\Designer\designer
  • Copy the Server folder under the following location to a location for which you have permission to write. When you create a new embedded engine in Designer, select the
    Add
    link next to
    Server runtime environment
    to point to this location:
    [ActiveVOS Installation Directory]\Designer\designer\plugins\org.activebpel.enginep_9.2.4.3
