Before installing WBCS in console mode (Windows/Linux/UNIX)

Before starting the Console mode installation, you must complete these steps:

  • Windows/Linux/UNIX: Install a supported version of Java before running the installer. For more information on the current supported version of Java, see Infor Workforce Management Release Notes. The installer will not complete until you specify a supported version of Java.
  • Windows/Linux/UNIX: Update your PATH variable to point to the java.exe executable in the Java installation bin directory. For example, on Linux you can set the PATH variable by issuing a command like this:

    export PATH=$PATH:/usr/java/jdk1.8/bin

    For Windows you can update the PATH environment variable to point to the java.exe executable in the Java installation bin directory.

    For more information on how to set your PATH variable, consult your operating system documentation.

  • Linux/UNIX: Create a wbtemp directory and then export the IATEMPDIR variable. Sample commands:

    mkdir wbtemp

    export IATEMPDIR=/u01/wrkbrain/wbtemp
