Installing JDBC driver in graphical or console mode
- From a command prompt, start the installation program by
using one of the following commands:
- To start in graphical mode:
java -jar dir/setup.jar -i gui
- To start in console mode:
Where dir is the location of the setup.jar file.java -jar dir/setup.jar -i console
- To start in graphical mode:
- Read the license agreement and accept the terms. Respond to the prompts as the installation guides you.
- When prompted, accept the default directory or specify
a different directory.
On a Windows platform, the default directory is C:\Program Files\IBM\Informix_JDBC_Driver
To prevent errors in installation and uninstallation, do not use an exclamation point character (!) in the installation path.
- When prompted, verify the location of the installation
path.
The installer installs the IBM Informix® JDBC Driver and notifies you that an uninstaller is being added to the installation directory.
Tip: If the installation stalls when connected to an NFS-mounted file system, you should first try resolving NFS issues. In some cases, unmounting and remounting the share can resolve the issue. Otherwise, forcefully terminate the installation, clean up any orphaned processes, and restart the installation. - Specify Finish when you see this
