You must grant file and directory permissions
to config_mgr_user, which is the user who runs Configuration Manager, to allow this
user to run the program and create files in the ce_install_path/tools/configure directory.
To grant permissions to the Configuration Manager user:
- If you are doing a new installation or upgrading
on a new machine where Content Engine has
never been installed, log on as the cpe_install_user.
If you are upgrading on the same machine where Content Engine was previously installed,
log on as the same user who originally installed that software. The
installation program requires this to detect that it is an upgrade
and to use the same installation path.
- Grant permissions to the config_mgr_user user
for the executable file that you intend to use:
Option |

AIX®, Solaris, HPUX, HPUXi, Linux, Linux for System z,
Solaris - graphical user interface |

- Grant write permission to the directory where you want Configuration Manager to place the
configuration XML files that it creates.
If
you do not specify the profile directory when you run Configuration Manager, grant write
permission on the default directory ce_install_path/tools/configure and
all its files and subdirectories.
- Log off the Content Platform Engine server and log on again
as config_mgr_user.
