Install Glassfish ESB Components Using the Glassfish ESB Installer

Before You Begin

When installing GlassFish ESB on UNIX systems, such as AIX machines, you need to set the DISPLAY variable to install in GUI mode. How you do this depends on how you connect to your system, as described below.

If you receive the error message “No X11 DISPLAY variable was set, but this program performed an operation which requires it” and you use the SSH command to connect to your system from another Windows machine, you need to set the DISPLAY variable.

Follow this step

1. First try to access through VNC Server and if VNC Server is not installed then

installed exceed Hummingbird .

How to start Exceed Hummingbird

Click on start

Click on programs

Click on Hummingbird Connectivity 10

Click on Exceed

Again click on Exceed

Configuring PuTTY

When you run PuTTY for the first time, you will see a window like the one below

After login export the Display by executing this command

# export DISPLAY=IP Address:0.0

For AIX, change the execution mode with the command chmod a+x installer_file.sh, then start the installation with the command ./installer_file.sh.

# ./glassfishesb-v2.2-full-installer-aix.sh
