Installing Administration Console

Note: The automated installer artifact requires a valid JRE to run. You will receive a "Could not find a valid Java virtual machine to load." error if you do not have a valid JRE installed. See the Infor Workforce Management Release Notes for information on a valid JRE that you can use to run the installer.

This topic outlines how to install Administration Console.

  1. Browse to the location of the wbcs-ac_setup_*.exe/bin file.
  2. Launch the executable file. In Linux/UNIX, use this command:

    ./wbcs_setup_*.bin

  3. Click Next.
  4. Specify the installation path you want to use for the Administration Console and supporting files. Then click Next. The default installation path will depend on the operating system. The Select Shortcut Directory page is displayed.
  5. Select a supported Java runtime environment (JRE) for the Admin Console by selecting one of these options. You must select a JRE and not a JDK. For example, C:\Java\<jdk>\jre\bin\java.exe is a valid selection, whereas C:\Java\<jdk>\bin\java.exe is not a valid selection.
    Note: You must set the PATH variable for Java before starting the installation. For more information, see Before Installing WBCS in GUI Mode (Windows/Linux/UNIX).
