1.3.2.1 Installation from CD-ROM

1. Insert the CD-ROM containing your products into the appropriate drive and mount it using the UNIX "mount" command.

2. Change to the mount directory and type:

     ./install

Follow the instructions on the screen. After your Acucorp products are installed, the Activator starts automatically. At the prompt, type the product code and product key that came with your product package. When you press <Enter> after typing in each code and key pair, the license file is updated. Repeat this cycle until the code/key pairs for each product you have ordered are entered.

3. For compiler installation, add the ACUCOBOL-GT "bin" subdirectory to your system path. (Or copy the "ccbl", "runcbl", "logutil", "vutil", "vio" and "activator" files to a directory included in your execution path. These executable files should be set to have "execute" permission for everyone who is using the compiler or runtime system.)

Note that each Acucorp product searches for its license file in the same directory where its executable resides. If you move the product's executable to a new directory, you must move its license file to the same location.

4. Start the acushare license manager service by typing "acushare -start" in the command line.

5. Go to the "sample" subdirectory and try compiling and running the tour program with the following commands:

     ccbl  tour.cbl
     runcbl tour.acu

6. If you get the message "Can't find entry for 'terminal' in 'term-lib'", you need to configure your terminal for ACUCOBOL-GT. Refer to Appendix A of your online ACUCOBOL-GT documentation for directions.

7. Once you have the sample program running, you may want to edit the "cblconfig" file supplied with ACUCOBOL-GT to meet the needs of your site. In particular, you should configure it to support the printers you have attached to your system. The chapter called "Compiler and Runtime" in the ACUCOBOL-GT User's Guide contains details about the configuration file.

8. If you are using shared memory, see the instructions for configuring acushare that are located in section 2.11 of the ACUCOBOL-GT User's Guide.

Please read the "READ_ME" and "RELEASE" files. The "READ_ME" file describes the files included with the product. The "RELEASE" file (if present) describes changes to the product that are not covered in the documentation.
