Install Genero Application Server on UNIX platforms

Follow these steps to install the Genero Application Server on UNIX™ platforms.

The installation and licensing of Genero products requires you to read and accept the End User License Agreement, which can be found on the Four Js website at http://4js.com/end-user-license-agreements/.

The installation program provides options that allow you to specify configuration options from the command line. You can display the installation program options using the -h option:

./fjs-gas-version-build-osident.run -h

Example:

$ ./fjs-gas-3.10.04-build129065-l64xl25.run -h

The installation program identifies the operating system and checks that all the system requirements are met before starting to copy the product files to disk.

  1. To perform the installation, run the auto-extractable shell script:

    ./fjs-gas-version-build-osident.run

    Example:

    $ ./fjs-gas-3.10.04-build129065-l64xl25.run

  2. Once the files are copied to disk, follow the instructions displayed.
    Note: You can install the package as root using the -r or --root option.
What to do next:

When you have completed the installation of the GAS, see FastCGI installation in the Genero Application Server User Guide for details on the Web Server configuration. Afterwards, validate your installation as described in GAS Configuration Check in the Genero Application Server User Guide.

Tip: If you have configurations from a previous installation version, for example in your as.xcf, avoid copying these files in to your new installation. The preferred practice is to use the default from the new install package so that you benefit from any new or changed syntax it may contain and then reapply your custom changes.
