Installing InterFormNG on Linux

Scroll Prev Top Next More

First download the InterFormNG-shell.7z file. There is no standard unzipper, but Ubuntu should find the program, p7zip itself, which you then install to unzip the file:

 

$ wget <Link to installation file>

$ p7zip -d <Installation file>

 

 

Configure

$ cd InterFormNG-shell

$ sudo bash install-linux.sh

$ ./cvt-properties-linux.sh

 

This will create the folder /usr/local/bin/ing/ with the following content:

 

/usr/local/bin/ing/

+-- current -> InterFormNG-2014.R541 (example)

+-- InterFormNG-2014.R541 (example)

 

You can now start the web interface with the command:

 

$ /usr/local/bin/ing/current/service-web-linux.sh

 

Open a browser and go to http://localhost:1885

Log in with the username admin and password password.

 

Start the service:

 

$ /usr/local/bin/ing/current/service-linux.sh

 

Start the designer:

 

$ /usr/local/bin/ing/current/designer-linux.sh

 

 

If you already have InterFormNG installed

Execute the following commands:

 

$ mkdir -p /usr/local/bin/ing/

$ cd /usr/local/bin/ing/

$ ln -s /path/to/InterFormNG-shell current

 

Where /path/to is the path to where you have InterFormNG installed.

 

Now you can proceed with "Upgrading to a newer release".

 

 

Upgrading to a newer release

$ wget http://download.interform400.com/shares/SW/development/InterFormNG-shell-2015.R01.7z

$ p7zip -d InterFormNG-shell-2015.R01.7z

$ cd InterFormNG-shell

$ sudo bash install-linux.sh

 

Now /usr/local/bin/ing/ will have the following content:

 

/usr/local/bin/ing/

+-- current -> InterFormNG-2015.R01

+-- old -> InterFormNG-2014.R541

+-- InterFormNG-2014.R541

+-- InterFormNG-2015.R01

 

All you configurations, templates, etc. will be copied from old (e.g. InterFormNG-2014.R541) to current (e.g. InterFormNG-2015.R01), and you are ready to go.

 

 

Execute the following commands:

 

$ mkdir -p /usr/local/bin/ing/

$ cd /usr/local/bin/ing/

$ ln -s /path/to/InterFormNG-shell current

 

Where /path/to is the path to where you have InterFormNG installed.

 

Now you can proceed with "Upgrading to a newer release".
