Run the installation script and verify installation

To install IXIA CCMS Web Server, you run an installation script and then open the log file to confirm the installation was successful.

About this task

To run the installation script and verify installation:

Procedure

  1. Run the shell script to automatically install Apache Tomcat service by choosing one of the following actions:
    Note: You can add
    --validate
    when running WindowsInstall.bat or LinuxInstall.sh to simply validate the docbase configuration, rather than actually performing the update or install.
    • Windows: Right-click the WindowsInstall.bat batch file, and click Run as administrator.
    • Linux: From the directory where the package was extracted, run the following command as root: sh ./LinuxInstall.sh
  2. Verify that the script was successful:
    1. In the location where you extracted the package, open the installation.log file in a text editor.
    2. Scroll to the end of the log and look for the message Installation successful.
      If the Installation successful message is missing, the installation failed.
  3. Verify that CCMS Web is at the correct version and is working by taking the following actions:
    1. Go to the URL for CCMS Web, using the following pattern:
      http://[host name]:TOMCAT_HTTP_PORT/
      For example:
      http://localhost:8080/
    2. On the login page, verify that the Version indicates 7.3.
    3. Log in and verify that the first page opens as expected.
