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
IBM®
Engineering Requirements Management DOORS® - Web
Access
(
DWA)
(9.
x.
x.
x), the Linux interoperation server is available as a separate component in IBM Fix Central along with the
IBM Engineering Requirements
Management DOORS
(
DOORS)
and
DWA
installers.
If you are installing a full version or mod version of DWA
(9.x or 9.x.x), the Linux interoperation server is available on Passport Advantage® as part of the DWA
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 DOORS,
you can use the same non-privileged user as 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
DWA, you
must run a recursive chown command on the files from the root of the DWA
directory. For example:
chown -R user:group DWA_home
