INSTALLING ARCGIS ENGINE RUNTIME ON SOLARIS AND LINUX
If the setup is launched, and ArcGIS Engine
Runtime already exists on the machine, the
setup will execute again. If the setup is executed
silently, the product will automatically be
installed to the same installation directory as
the existing ArcGIS Engine Runtime setup.
If the file is not present, the JavaRuntime feature for ArcGIS Engine
Runtime has not been installed. Continue to Step 2.
2. Launch the ArcGIS Engine Runtime installation program by executing the
following statement to launch the ArcGIS Engine Runtime setup silently:
/Setup –s /path/to/propertiesfile
Any errors experienced during the silent install will be captured in a log file. It
is advisable that you interact with the log file to determine if errors have
occurred. The log file will be located in the user’s $HOME directory:
$HOME/ArcGISEngineRT_InstallLog.log
‘Installation log files’, at the end of this section, provides some examples of
the log files.
The following sections provide some examples of incorporating the ArcGIS
Engine Runtime setup within your application’s installation program.
Example A—Installing ArcGIS Engine Runtime using a script
The following is a sample install script that includes an initial check for ArcGIS
Engine Runtime and the Java installation feature, launches the setup silently, and
checks the log file for errors during installation.
#!/bin/sh
#
# check to see if ArcGIS Engine Runtime is already installed...
#
machineName='uname -n'
esriPropFile=$HOME/ESRI.properties.$machineName
if [ -f $esriPropFile ]
then
# query prop file for the installation location of ArcGIS Engine
Runtime...
runtimeHome='cat $esriPropFile | grep Z_ArcGISEngineRT_INSTALL_DIR'
if [ "$runtimeHome" = "" ]
then
echo "ArcGIS Engine Runtime is NOT installed!"
else
echo "ArcGIS Engine Runtime IS installed!"
#
# check to see if the Java components of ArcGIS Engine Runtime are
installed...
#
engineHome='cat $esriPropFile | grep Z_ENGINE_HOME | cut -d= -f2'
if [ -f $engineHome/java/arcgis_system.jar ]
then
echo "ArcGIS Engine Runtime Java components ARE installed!"
else
echo "ArcGIS Engine Runtime Java components ARE NOT installed!"
