Launching the Installation Configuration Wizard
This topic describes how to launch the Installation Configuration Wizard (the wizard that is used for creating a custom or silent installation file).
About this task
An administrator initiates the configuration tool by defining
the OUNCE_CONFIG_FILE
environment variable and pointing
it to a properties file that will hold installation configuration
settings. This file is then used for running custom or silent installations.
Procedure
- On Windows™ systems,
issue these commands:
set OUNCE_CONFIG_FILE=<path> AppScanSrc_Installer.exe
Where
<path>
is the fully-qualified path and filename of the properties file that will contain installation settings. For example, issueset OUNCE_CONFIG_FILE=C:\install.properties
to save installation settings to that file.If you are not running the commands from the location that contains the
setup
file, ensure that you change directory to that location or qualify the command with the location of the file.Alternatively, set the environment variable in the Windows system properties before double-clicking the
AppScanSrc_Installer.exe
file or launching it by command line. -
On Linux™ systems, issue this command:
export OUNCE_CONFIG_FILE=<path>
Where
<path>
is the fully-qualified path and filename of the properties file that will contain installation settings.Then launch the wizard. On 32-bit systems, run setup.bin. For 64-bit systems, see Installing AppScan Source results in error "Graphical installers are not supported by the vm".
If you are not running the commands from the location that contains the
setup
file, ensure that you change directory to that location or qualify the command with the location of the file.
Results
If the file name exists and is valid, the custom wizard uses the properties in the file as the default properties. You can save the configuration with the existing file name or a new file name. If the file name does not exist, the wizard uses the AppScan® Source default properties, and the specified file name appears as the default when you save the configuration.
