Review the following installation requirements to ensure your system supports iWay 6.0.1 SM.
Minimum requirements for Windows:
For other platforms, ensure that your machine has a reasonable supply of resources. For exact requirements, contact iWay Software Customer Support.
At this time, iWay 6.0.1 SM is supported on the following operating systems:
Note: If you are currently using Windows 2003 or Windows XP, you must install a Microsoft Hotfix before installing iWay 6.0.1 SM. For more information, see Microsoft Hotfix for Windows 2003 and Windows XP.
For additional operating system support information, contact iWay Software Customer Support.
The procedures, names, and paths in this manual use Windows conventions and default locations unless otherwise indicated. For other operating systems and non-default locations, substitute accordingly. Names and case may vary between operating systems.
There is a known issue in Windows 2003 and Windows XP that causes memory leaks in some applications (specifically, iWay Designer) when they are installed on these operating systems. To prevent any memory leak issues, you must download and install a Microsoft Hotfix before installing iWay 6.0.1 SM. This Microsoft Hotfix can be downloaded from the following Web site:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/319740
Java 2 Standard Edition (J2SE™) JDK 1.6 or higher is required for iWay components.
Note: The iSM 6.0.1 installation requires Java version 1.6.0_13 or higher. You must verify that this version is available on your system before installing iSM 6.0.1.
For Windows, Linux, and Solaris, you can download and install the latest supported JDK at no charge from:
http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
For other platforms, contact the appropriate vendor.
After installing the JDK, the Java command must be in your search PATH to install and run iWay. On Windows, the JDK installation normally handles this for you by placing a copy of java.exe in C:\WINNT\system32. On other platforms, ensure the following is in your PATH variable:
/java_home/bin
where:
Is the absolute path where the JDK is installed.
To determine if Java is properly installed and in your search PATH, execute the following at a command prompt or shell:
java -version
Information on the Java build appears, for example:
java version "1.6.0_13" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.6.0_13-b03) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 11.3-b02, mixed mode, sharing)
Note: The terms JDK™ and Java SDK™ are synonymous.
Many adapters require third party libraries or JDBC drivers provided by the vendor of the target data source, system, or protocol. You must copy these files into the iWay directory structure after you install iWay. More information is available in Preparing Adapters.
