| Siebel Installations > Install Sun Java Web Server on Solaris
I am going to describe this - Installing Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP16 or 17
on Sun SPARC** (64-bit) Solaris 10
First we need to check the prerequisites -This list was from the support web.
1.145532-01 patch must be there on the Operating system.
Go to this URL (http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-21-145532-01-1)
for details of this patch. This patch has been obsoleted by patch 145532-05
If you want to install SP16 , use this patch instead - 145532-04
To check if you have this patch in Solaris type
showrev -p | grep 145532
2. Swap should be twice the RAM size or at least as much as RAM
To find out RAM size in Solaris, type either of these commands
prtconf | head -3 |grep Mem
or
/usr/sbin/prtconf | head -3 |grep Mem
To find out SWAP size, type this
swap -s
3. Minimum memory requirements
Minimum Required Memory - 64 MB
Recommended Memory - 192 MB
4.Recommended Disk Space - 256 MB
Command for checking free disk space
iostat -E
5.You should know the ip address and DNS name of your computer and also confirm that it has a valid DNS.
You can find out your ip address by typing this command
/usr/sbin/ifconfig -a | awk 'BEGIN { count=0; } { if ( $1 ~ /inet/ ) { count++; if( count==2 ) { print $2; } } }'
To check dns name, type hostname
After that , open up a command prompt from another computer in the network and ping your server with the hostname.
If you get a valid response, then your dnsname should be set up.
6. To administer the webserver, you need to install it under root or another user that can access ports.
The default ports are 80 and 443 for the ssl and non ssl versions. Only root can set up your webserver
with these ports. Otherwise make sure that the web server admin has permissions to install using these ports.
To check if ports 80 and 443 are free type these commands
netstat -an | grep 443 | grep -i listen
netstat -an | grep 80 | grep -i listen

In the install folder, you should see a /WebServer and a /lib directory, and the following files:
