Installing ITXA V10.0 on Windows operating system

Use this procedure to install the ITXA V10.0 on any supported Windows™ platform.

About this task

Important: The Java Development Kit (JDK)® version is now upgraded to IBM JDK 17.0.14. After you upgrade to Java® 17, you cannot go back to using Java® 8.

IBM® Installation Manager screen information might vary, depending upon the version that you use. This installation requires IBM Installation Manager V8 or higher, 64 bit.

If IBM Installation Manager is installed on your machine, skip steps 1 and 2.

Remember: If you are using ITX with ITXA, install ITX before ITXA to avoid an error.

    If you have an existing installation of IBM Installation Manager, your version is verified or, if necessary, you are prompted to upgrade.

    The IBM Installation Manager is installed at c:\ProgramFiles(x86)\Installation Manager\eclipse.

      • C:\download_path\spepkfsp_date_time\spepkfsp\repository.config
  6. Install the ITXA components by clicking Install and selecting the appropriate version.

    5. Select the features that you want to install.
    6. Complete the General Settings, which include customer information, the Start menu location, and the program folder for installation.

    By default, the database settings use the Derby database. To use a different database, manually modify SPE_install_dir/dbprops.cfg. See Database configuration parameters for non-secure database connection (Non-SSL)

  11. If you want to run Sterling B2B Integrator maps on this system, run the following executable file to install the Sterling B2B Integrator Map Editor:
