New installations for Windows and for Linux.
Installation for Windows is based on NSIS (Nullsoft Install System) installer.
To install Enhydra 5.1 on Windows platform please start
setup.exeand choose your jdk root directory and Enhydra root directory.
On Linux platform you can use installation with rpm packets.
Table 2.1. Enhydra -5.1 rpms are provided in two flavours:
Standard | Relocatable | |
---|---|---|
Source: | enhydra-5.1-1.src.rpm | enhydra-5.1-1.R.src.rpm |
Binary: | enhydra-5.1-1.i386.rpm | enhydra-5.1-1.R.i386.rpm |
Binary rpm in standard flavour can be used with any version of rpm.
The package is installed to /usr/local directory. Although the package
is not relocatable, it is possible to manually move it from
/usr/local to any directory, and configure it by entering enhydra5.1
directory and issuing the following command:
./configure
Configured in this way Enhydra will operate normally, but subsequent rpm commands (for instance rpm -e, rpm -U, rpm -V, etc.) won't know where to find the enhydra files.
Therefore, we strongly advise you to use the relocatable flavour package in case you need to install enhydra to a non default directory (/usr/local). Unfortunately, rpm version 4.0.2 does not relocate packages correctly, due to a bug. Hence, to install the relocatable package, you must use rpm 4.0.3 or higher (the distribution has been tested with rpm 4.0.4). You should issue the following command:
rpm -i --prefix /directory_path enhydra-5.1-1.R.i386.rpmwhere /directory_path represents the path you want to substitute for the default prefix /usr/local.
