On The Peoplesoft Road : Peopletools 8.49.08 Windows client

For further installation and usage, you have to install Peopletools and Application on a client Windows machine.
Downloaded from http://edelivery.oracle.com
Choose "Peoplesoft Entreprise", plateform "Linux x86", then under "PeopleSoft Enterprise - PeopleTools 8.49 Media Pack", then disk named as
"PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools 8.49 PeopleTools 8.49 Mobile Agent (use requires specific license) Disk 1 of 7"
"PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools 8.49 PeopleTools 8.49 Mobile Agent (use requires specific license) Disk 2 of 7"
"PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools 8.49 PeopleTools 8.49 Mobile Agent (use requires specific license) Disk 3 of 7"
"PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools 8.49 PeopleTools 8.49 Mobile Agent (use requires specific license) Disk 4 of 7"
"PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools 8.49 PeopleTools 8.49 Mobile Agent (use requires specific license) Disk 5 of 7"
"PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools 8.49 PeopleTools 8.49 Mobile Agent (use requires specific license) Disk 6 of 7"
"PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools 8.49 PeopleTools 8.49 Mobile Agent (use requires specific license) Disk 7 of 7"

At this step you'll need the license code from (depending of the database vendor) http://licensecodes.oracle.com/ent_keys_by_prod.html#PeopleTools
The license code are same for production usage.

Just run the setup.exe located into the installation directory, and follow the instruction.
You have to indicate the ORACLE_HOME/bin directory (which is not the case on Unix/Linux).
Note, the Disk 5 will be skipped (not required).

Choose Unicode database if you want to load global application with different languages, choose Non-Unicode if not. Take care , a Unicode database requires much more space (between 2 and 3 times more than a Non-Unicode database).Choose the module you want to install, in most of case, check all the checkboxes :
If you want later install some ML translation application,keep the Language pack : Change the folder for each installation CD : Then, you have to install the patch 8.49.08, the screenshots are almost same as here above.

Lastly, some programs have been added in your programs list, run the Application Designer to check the Peopletools version as well :

Have fun,

On The Peoplesoft Road : Peopletools 8.49.08 console mode

Because you can want to work in console mode instead of GUI, console mode doesn't required any XClient...

The main thing at this installation is the setting of DISPLAY variable, doesn't forget it, you can encoutered some strange behaviour of the Installer.

I'll install with this method the Peopletools for CRM9 usage, under specific folder. I don't share the Peopletools directory between differents applications.

On The Peoplesoft Road : Peopletools 8.49.08 GUI mode

Downloaded from http://edelivery.oracle.com
Choose "Peoplesoft Entreprise", plateform "Linux x86", then under "PeopleSoft Enterprise - PeopleTools 8.49 Media Pack", then disk named as

Here below, I'll show the Peopletools installation for the HRMS application. It's better to install one Peopletools software by application directory.
1. As root, the group psoft has already been created previously.
[root@orion:/apps/bea/weblogic/9.2]$ useradd -g psoft hrms9 [root@orion:/apps/bea/weblogic/9.2]$
[root@orion:/apps/bea/weblogic/9.2]$ passwd hrms9
Changing password for user hrms9.
New UNIX password:
BAD PASSWORD: it is too short Retype new UNIX
password: passwd: all authentication tokens updated successfully. [root@orion:/apps/bea/weblogic/9.2]$

2. Start the installation in GUI mode with user hrms9 created at step 1.
At this step you'll need the license code from (depending of the database vendor) http://licensecodes.oracle.com/ent_keys_by_prod.html#PeopleTools
The license code are same for production usage.

"BEA Tuxedo 9.1 for AIX, Solaris, and Linux"

1. As root user, create group, user and folder Tuxedo :
[root@orion:/root]$ groupadd psoft
[root@orion:/root]$ groupadd tuxedo
[root@orion:/root]$ groupadd bea
[root@orion:/root]$ useradd -g tuxedo -G psoft -G bea tuxedo
[root@orion:/root]$ passwd tuxedo
Changing password for user tuxedo.
New UNIX password:
BAD PASSWORD: it is based on a dictionary word
Retype new UNIX password:
passwd: all authentication tokens updated successfully.
[root@orion:/root]$ cd /apps
[root@orion:/apps]$ mkdir -p bea/tuxedo/9.1
[root@orion:/apps]$ ls -lrt

drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jan 5 14:27 psoft
[root@orion:/apps]$ chgrp psoft psoft
[root@orion:/apps]$ ls -lrt

drwxr-xr-x 2 root psoft 4096 Jan 5 14:57 psoft
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jan 5 14:58 bea
[root@orion:/apps]$ chgrp bea bea
[root@orion:/apps]$ cd bea
[root@orion:/apps/bea]$ chown -R tuxedo:tuxedo tuxedo
[root@orion:/apps/bea]$ ls -lrt
total 8
drwxr-xr-x 3 tuxedo tuxedo 4096 Jan 5 14:58 tuxedo
[root@orion:/apps/psoft/bea]$
[root@orion:/apps/psoft/bea]$

2. Install software as tuxedo user.
The tuxedo's installation folder might be inside the PS_HOME directory, but since we can share the Tuxedo software by multiple Peopletools and Peoplesoft applications, better to externalize the Tuxedo software and do not duplicate the installation.
[tuxedo@orion:/nfs/software/peoplesoft/BEA/BEA_Tuxedo_9.1]$ sh ./install.sh

4. After reconnection, check the installation by existence of two files :
[tuxedo@orion:/home/tuxedo]$ cd $TUXDIR
[tuxedo@orion:/apps/bea/tuxedo/9.1]$ ls
bin cobinclude help include lib locale samples tux.env udataobj uninstaller
[tuxedo@orion:/apps/bea/tuxedo/9.1]$ find . -name lic.txt
./udataobj/lic.txt
[tuxedo@orion:/apps/bea/tuxedo/9.1]$ find . -name tlisten.pw
./udataobj/tlisten.pw
[tuxedo@orion:/apps/bea/tuxedo/9.1]$
[tuxedo@orion:/apps/bea/tuxedo/9.1]$ ln -s $TUXDIR/locale/C $TUXDIR/locale/Ja_JP
[tuxedo@orion:/apps/bea/tuxedo/9.1]$ ls -lrt locale
