Installing PA XP CLUI on the Windows operating system is different from installing PA XP on the UNIX
operating system.
For UNIX variants:
1.
Run the install.sh file. You may have to set the install.sh file as an executable. To do this, enter
chmod 755 install.sh in the command line. You must be a supersuer to execute this file.

The script informs you what is about to be done, and asks if you want to continue. Press Y for
yes, or N for no.
3.
When prompted, enter the location of JRE. However, you must not include the location of the bin
directory and everything after it.
If the Java or JRE commands are not found, the script exits. Otherwise, you are prompted to enter the
management station name.

The install script asks if SSL is installed and configured on the management station’s web server.
Enter Y for yes to use SSL (HTTPS). Enter N to not use the HTTP. N is the default. Entering anything
other than a y or Y here results in the default value being used.

The script prompts for the Administrative username and password of the PA XP management station.
Use the following format to enter the username and password: username:password.

The script then checks the location indicated by the JAVA_HOME environment variable to find out
if the java.exe or jre.exe program exists.

management station name.

The install script asks if SSL is installed and configured on the management station’s web server.
Enter Y for yes to use SSL (HTTPS). Enter N to not use HTTP. N is the default value. Entering anything
other than a y or Y here results in the default value being used.

To use the shell scripts, you must either change the directory to the location of the shell scripts (usually in a
CLUI directory in the install directory), or add that location to your path and enter the name of the script.
Calling the script with a -? prints the usage statement.
NOTE:
The UNIX-based system users must place quotation marks ("") around the question mark (?), because in some
shells, the question mark (?) is used as a wild card. Further, in UNIX, when specifying Windows device files,
it is necessary to place quotation marks around # to avoid commenting out the rest of the line.
To uninstall the CLUI, change to the installation directory and invoke the uninstall script, as follows:
uninstallclui.sh for UNIX platforms; uninstall.bat for Windows
