Installing on the UNIX Platform

The installation of the eLink Adapter for BroadVision requires a small change to the BroadVision's configuration. To install on the UNIX platform, you must perform these tasks:

Modify the BroadVision Configuration File

The BroadVision configuration file (bv1to1.conf) has an entry that lists which directories should be searched for shared libraries. This entry must be modified to include the directory that contains the eLink Platform libraries ($TUXDIR/lib). The bv1to1.conf file exists in the etc subdirectory of the bv1to1 user. To modify this file, follow the instructions below:

  1. Login as bv1to1.

          login bv1to1
    Password:

  2. Edit the bv1to1.conf file.

          vi etc/bv1to1.conf

  3. Look for the BV_LD_LIBRARY_PATH entry.

  4. Add the lib subdirectory of your eLink Platform installation to this list of directories. Listing 2-1 shows the new directory in bold.

    Listing 2-1


       #-----------------------------------------------------------
    # Library path
    # Extend this to include directories that hold your component or
    # dynamic object libraries.
    BV_LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$getenv(BV1TO1) + "/lib"
    + ":" + $getenv(BV1TO1) + "/lib/objects"
    + ":" + $getenv(BV1TO1) + "/lib/components"
    + ":" + $getenv(BV1TO1) + "/orbix/lib"
    + ":" + $getenv(BV1TO1) + "/rogue/lib"
    + ":" + "/bea/work/mytux/lib"
    + ":" + $getenv(BV_DB_LIB_PATH)


  5. Reconfigure Broadvision using the bvconf execute command.

          bvconf shutdown
    bvconf execute

Log In as User with the Correct Permissions

In order in install the adapter, you must be logged in as a user who has write permissions to the directory ${BV1TO1}/lib/components. Log in as the appropriate user before proceeding.

Set the BV1TO1 Environment Variable

The installation of the eLink Adapter for BroadVision installs the library libTuxAdapter.sl into the Broadvision components subdirectory. It is necessary to set the environment variable BV1TO1 to point to the directory where you have installed BroadVision. The installation script of the adapter uses the setting of the BV1TO1 environment variable in order to install the adapter library. Listing 2-2 shows an example of how to set the environment variable:

Listing 2-2 A Sample Environment Variable


BV1TO1=/opt/bv1to1
export BV1TO1


It is necessary to shut down BroadVision before installing the eLink Adapter for BroadVision. Once BroadVision has been shut down, use the install.sh script to install the eLink Adapter for BroadVision as shown in Listing 2-3.
