Installation Steps

  1. Make sure you have JDK 1.5 installed. Go to http://java.sun.com/ for JDK 1.5 download, if you didn't install it yet.
  2. Make sure the environment variable JAVA_HOME is defined for the user running QuickBuild server, and takes value of the JDK home directory (the directory containing bin, lib,...).
  3. Download QuickBuild2 distribution from http://quickbuild.pmease.com, select the latest build for project PMEase.QuickBuild2 and download proper distribution for your operation system.
  4. Unzip the downloaded file into the selected installation directory.
  5. For windows platform, run bin/quickbuild.bat to start the server; for other platforms, change to the bin directory, and run below command to start the server:
    ./quickbuild.sh console
    

    NOTE:

    • This will run QuickBuild in console mode. To close the server, just close the console window (on Windows platforms) or press Ctrl-C (on platforms other than Windows).
    • To install QuickBuild as NT service on Windows platforms, just run service-install.bat, then you will find a service named QuickBuild in the service control panel. To uninstall the service, just run service_uninstall.bat.
    • To install QuickBuild as a daemon process on non-Windows platforms, just run command:
      ./quickbuild.sh start
      

      The daemon process can be stopped by running below command:

      ./quickbuild.sh stop
      
    • Be default, QuickBuild will run on port 8080. If this port is used by other process, you can change to use a un-used port by editing the file conf/node.properties.
  6. After the server starts up, follow the instruction in the console to open a browser window and connect to the server. Below browsers are supported:
    • Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher
    • Firefox 1.5 or higher
    • Safari 3.0 or higher
