Support for deploying Infocenter on Linux?
Posted: Feb 27, 2008 05:52:05 AM

This is a great tool. I have been using this tool to create Infocenters for Windows staging environment. I want to deploy it on Linux. As per the link: http://submit.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/idwb/v3r8m4 /index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.iehs/environreq.html, IBM Help system is supported on Linux. Is it possible to deploy the Infocenter created by this tool on Linux? I found the IC_start.bat but did not find IC_start.sh which I can easily create btw but the embedded jvm runs only on Windows. I appreciate any pointers.

in response to: AshwinManekar's post

Ashwin figured out how to run the IC on Linux. Including his findings here:

1. Copy IC_start.bat as IC_start.sh

2. Edit IC_start.sh to use the jvm for Linux environment. The new entry would look like: /opt/IBMJava2-ppc-142/bin/java -classpath eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.help.base_3.1.0/helpbase.jar org.eclipse.help.standalone.Infocenter -eclipsehome eclipse -plugincustomization plugins/com.ibm.help.ic.doc_3.1.1/plugin_customization.ini -port 8892 -command start -noexec -vmargs -Dibm.stream.nio=true

3. Execute ./IC_start.sh
