Description Catherine Robson 2013-09-10 01:34:40 UTC
Title: Installing Red Hat JBoss <application condition="BRMS-EAP">BRMS</application><application condition ="BPMS-EAP">BPMS</application> for Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform

Describe the issue:
There is no details about how to verify that the folders were overwritten correctly.  We may want to add some optional steps that allow the user to 'verify' that things are as they should be since many people are running into issues across different operating systems for overwriting behaviors.

Notes from usability review session:
- Unzip, "make sure it's merged" - what's merged?
- How do I know I actually installed it?  There's no feedback for user
- It's not clear what got installed, as the resulting distribution still says jboss-eap-6.1. Should it be bpms? --> Will see if we can make this happen when we work with the installer.  Hand-installation cannot do this as the overwrite is required.  Should add something to documentation about checking that a file was added to some folders, then rename the EAP folder to distinguish it as an optional step for validation and organization.

Suggestions for improvement:
Add 2 optional steps, or a note maybe:
1. Tell users how to check a file or two to ensure they were created/overwritten
2. Suggest users change the name of the containing folder from jboss-eap-6.1 to jboss-eap-6.1-bpmsuite-6.0 (or maybe something simpler!)

fixed as follows:
     Merge the extracted standalone zip package into the SERVER_HOME directory. In the process, multiple file are overwritten, for example the SERVER_HOME/bin/product.conf. After a successful merge, the product.conf file in your SERVER_HOME directory must contain the string clot=bpms.
    In Red Hat Enterprise Linux, you can use the following command to extract the zip file into your server directory correctly:

    unzip -u jboss-bpms-VERSION-TYPE.zip SERVER_HOME
