When you install the interoperation server on Linux, you must install as the root user.
Before you begin
If you are installing a fix pack of Rational®
DOORS® Web Access
(9.
x.
x.
x), the Linux interoperation server is available as a separate component in IBM® Fix Central along with the Rational
DOORS and Rational
DOORS Web Access installers.
If you are installing a full
version or mod version of Rational
DOORS Web Access (9.x or
9.x.x), the Linux
interoperation server is available on Passport Advantage® as part of the Rational
DOORS Web Access installer. For Linux, the installer is in the
.../installer/linux/interop directory.
Procedure
- Create a non-privileged user account to own the interoperation
server files. For example, you might call this user account doors.
If you are installing the interoperation server on the same machine
as Rational DOORS, you can use the same non-privileged
user as Rational DOORS.
- Go to the directory where you saved the installation file
and run it. Files are automatically extracted, and the
installation procedure begins.
- Follow the prompts to install the interoperation server.
- Optional: If you plan to set up your system
so that a user other than the root user owns and starts Rational DOORS Web
Access, you must run a recursive chown command on
the files from the root of the Rational DOORS Web Access directory. For example:
chown -R user:group DWA_home
