Installing the WBCS in console mode (Windows, Linux/UNIX)

Console mode is a text-based installation available for servers that do not support x-windows emulators or do not have x-windows enabled.

Before starting the installation, you must ensure you have full read/write permissions for the installation file and the installation directory.

  1. Browse to the location of the wbcs_setup_*.exe/bin file.
  2. Launch the installation file with this command:

    ./wbcs_setup_*.bin -i console

  3. Select 1 for a full installation and press Enter.
  4. Specify the installation path you want to use for the Clock Server and supporting files. Press Enter. The default installation path will depend on the operating system.
  5. The options available for the console installation are identical to the GUI installation.
    See Installing the WBCS in GUI mode (Windows, Linux/UNIX).
    Note: If you receive the error "Unable to install the Java Virtual Machine included with this installer." you can ignore the error as this is an installer defect that will not affect the successful installation of the Clock Server.
