Linux™ operating system considerations
There are considerations to be aware of when installing on a Linux™ operating system.
- You must run the IBM® Traveler installation application as the root user.
- You must run the IBM® Traveler utility
(
travelerUtil
) as the root user. - Ensure the Domino® user's password is not expired or it may cause the IBM® Traveler installation application to hang. This is because the OS will prompt the installer to change the password.
- Running the installer as a user other than root user may cause the install application to hang. In addition, the server may not be able to start after installation due to incorrect file permissions.
- If you login to a Linux™ system as a non root user and SU
to root, you may see an error trying to launch the IBM®
Traveler installer in UI mode, similar to
java.lang.noclassdeffounderror sun awt x11graphicsenvironment
. This depends on the system configuration, but you can work around by either logging in to the system using the root user or simply running the installer in silent mode (for more information, see Installing in silent mode on Linux operating systems).
