GOAL:
How to install additional components on a Progress UNIX installation?
GOAL:
How to add Components To Previously Installed Products?
FACT(s) (Environment):
UNIX
Progress 9.1D
FIX:
Adding Components to a previously installed Product: This new feature allows you to add components and subcomponents to existing Progress Version 9.1x and later installations without having to enter any data other than the required components or subcomponents. In earlier Progress versions it is necessary to re-install Progress and execute the "Custom Install" setup type; these steps are removed with this new Add feature.
Follow these steps to add components or subcomponents on a UNIX platform using the new add feature:
At the command line, type the shell script destination-path/proaddcomp to run the add feature. The Select Products dialog box appears.
All previously installed products appear on this list. The Select Products dialog box allows you to select and deselect Progress products for which you want to add components or subcomponents.
Select or deselect a product by highlighting the product and pressing RETURN. An asterisk (*) indicates that a product is selected. If you want to select the first product on the list, you must first press RETURN to deselect the product and then press RETURN again to select it. When you select a product the Select Components dialog box appears.
The Select Components dialog box lists only those components that have not been previously installed. Select or deselect a component to install by highlighting the component and pressing RETURN. An asterisk (*) indicates that a component is selected.
If the selected component has subcomponents the Select Subcomponents dialog box appears.
The Select Subcomponents dialog box lists the subcomponents for the component you selected. The symbol (m) indicates that a subcomponent is mandatory.
Select or deselect a subcomponent by highlighting the component and pressing RETURN. An asterisk (*) indicates that a subcomponent is selected.
Choose Previous Menu and press RETURN when you have selected all the subcomponents you want to add.
NOTE: If you do not select all the subcomponents marked as mandatory, the Mandatory Subcomponents dialog box appears.
Type Y to return to the Select Subcomponents dialog box, or N to disregard this warning.
If you answer No to the Mandatory Subcomponents warning, the Mandatory Confirmation dialog box appears:
Type Y to disregard this warning, or N to return to the Select Subcomponents dialog box.
NOTE: The products you install might not work properly if you do not install all mandatory subcomponents.
When you have selected all the components and subcomponents you want to add, choose Previous Menu and press RETURN to return to the Select Products dialog box.
Choose Install Selected Products from the Select Products dialog box and press RETURN. The Done Selecting Products dialog box appears.
Type Y to continue with the installation or N to select additional components or subcomponents. The Copy Scripts? dialog box appears.
Progress products consist of several scripts and program modules. When you install a product, the scripts are placed in the installation directory you specify.
Choose one of the following:
To allow all users on your system to run the product, you should answer Yes when prompted to copy the scripts to /usr/bin. Type Y to instruct. the Installation utility to place Progress scripts in /usr/bin and the destination pathname you specified earlier.
CAUTION: Answering Y might cause the Progress Installation utility to overwrite existing executables in this directory.
Type N to instruct the Installation utility to place Progress Version 9.1 scripts only in the destination pathname you specified earlier.
NOTE: If you are maintaining two versions of Progress on the same machine, answer N to this question.
While Progress decompresses the files, the Installing Files dialog box appears.
While Progress tailors the files, the Tailoring Progress Files dialog box appears.
Press RETURN. When the installation is complete, Progress returns you to the UNIX system prompt. .
