Installing the ArcGIS Web Adaptor (Java Platform) silently on Linux

The ArcGIS Web Adaptor (Java Platform) has its own installation program, which is separate from the ArcGIS for Server installation. Follow the steps below to install this product silently.

It is recommended that you do not install the ArcGIS Web Adaptor (Java Platform) to a remote network drive. If the remote drive is not accessible at uninstallation time, the uninstallation could fail and leave files behind.

NoteNote:

Installing the ArcGIS Web Adaptor (Java Platform) silently on Linux

  1. Before beginning the installation, read the license agreement located at <CD_ROOT or untar directory>/Documentation/ServerLicense.pdf and accept the terms.
  2. Run the setup silently at the prompt. See sample syntax below:

    <CD_ROOT or untar directory>/Setup -m silent -l yes

    Usage: Setup [Options]

    Options

    Descriptions

    -m; --mode MODE

    Optional. Defaults to GUI.

    MODE is either silent or gui.

    -l; --license-agreement CHOICE

    Required for silent mode. CHOICE is either Yes or No.

    Yes indicates that you have read and agreed to the Esri License Agreement (E204, E300). Visit esri.com/legal/licensing/software-license.html to read the license agreement.

    -d; --directory DIRECTORY

    Optional. By default, ArcGIS Web Adaptor (Java Platform) is installed to your $HOME directory. DIRECTORY specifies a different installation directory.

    The path /arcgis/webadaptor10.1/ is appended to the installation directory.

    The name of the installation directory should be lowercase. The samples and data installed require the data path to be lowercase.

    -v; --verbose

    Installer runs in verbose mode.

    -h; --help

    Displays command line help and exits.

    -e; --examples

    Displays usage examples of these options and exits.

  3. Navigate to the ArcGIS Web Adaptor installation folder. Deploy the arcgis.war file to your Java application server. For instructions on how to deploy a .war file, please refer to the documentation for your Java application server.
  4. Optionally, if you want to deploy multiple Web Adaptors on the host machine, redeploy the arcgis.war file as necessary. Keep in mind that if you're deploying multiple Web Adaptors on the same web site (port), they need to use different names. For example, two Web Adaptors named arcgis cannot exist on the same web site. If you want multiple Web Adaptors with the same name, you'll need to install them on separate web sites (ports).
  5. Connect the ArcGIS Web Adaptor to your ArcGIS Server site by completing the steps in Configuring the Web Adaptor after installation.
NoteNote:

After installing, the Web Adaptor will display in the language specified by your Java application server. To change the language, consult the product documentation for your Java application server.
