Using this optional method of installing a LexEVS Local Runtime you can avoid going through the GUI install steps. This is particularly useful if you have multiple servers upon which you would like to install a LexEVS Local Runtime with very similar components. This install mechanism does not replace the need to configure and test a LexEVS Local Runtime just as you would if installed using the GUI installer.

Step

Action

1. Download the latest version of the Local Runtime GUI install package (you may already have this from previous installs) and the latest command line install configuration XML file from the right. The location you have chosen to save this on your computer will be referred to as the SAVE_DIRECTORY.

Note

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.

2. Edit the following file to configure the components to be installed:

LexEVS-install-config-{version}.xml

<installpath> can be modified to any location of your choice. The components "Product Information" and "Runtime and Administration Toolkit" are required. Remove lines in the configuration file for those components that you do not want to be installed. By default, the file is configured to install all packages.

Note

This image shows the file being edited to only include the required components for a minimum install. All license and preface comments have been removed.

3. At a command prompt change to the SAVE_DIRECTORY:

cd {SAVE_DIRECTORY}

Then enter the command:

java -jar LexEVS-install-{version}.jar LexEVS-install-config-{version}.xml

...where version is the version you downloaded
For example:

java -jar LexEVS-install-5.1.jar LexEVS-install-config-5.1.xml

When these steps are complete, configure and test your LexEVS Local Runtime.
