  • There are a number of LexEVS 5.x Prerequisite Software Supported products that you must install to run a LexEVS Local Runtime on your platform. You must make sure that you have the proper software and versions, depending on which LexEVS environment you are installing. Do this now, for the Local Runtime designated prerequisite software, before continuing to the install steps.
  • As an option you may consider the command line install of a LexEVS Local Runtime for putting all the necessary files in place based on a pre-decided list of components to include. As noted in the last step of the GUI Installer for LexEVS Local Runtime, you can save a file that represents the choices you have made during the GUI install. This file can be used as-is or be edited and then fed into an install on another server. Follow the steps for 6 - Installing LexEVS 5.x and Higher Local Runtime (Optional Command Line Method) if you should choose this route.
  • Complete the #Downloading and Installing the LexEVS Local Runtime steps below.

Step

Action

1. Download the latest version of the Local Runtime GUI install package from the right. The location you have chosen to save this on your computer will be referred to as the SAVE_DIRECTORY. Our command examples will use scratch as this directory.
If you plan to install the LexEVS Remote API or the LexEVS Grid Services in conjunction then the Local Runtime version must match what you plan to install.

Access to the downloads does not require an account. If you are having trouble downloading files then you may need to disable pop-up blockers or check any firewall settings at your site.

9. The last step of the installation wizard provides the ability to generate a command line installation configuration XML file that can be used on other servers. This installation script can be used to install LexEVS without the wizard that you just went through. If you want to generate this file then click the Generate an automatic installation script button. This will have no effect on the current installation. For more information look at the optional #Downloading and Installing the LexEVS Local Runtime.
