Located a product page that outlines this information [1]. Following up on who updates this, whether it is updated and if this can be linked to for this information to prevent updating the same information in multiple places:

[1] - https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/articles/111753

Comment 5 Misha H. Ali 2012-10-09 21:53:58 UTC
Created new bugs to track the issues in c#4 for each guide and added Libor as QA.

Comment 6 Misha H. Ali 2012-10-15 03:22:29 UTC
Adding Weinan for clarification about the below points:

1. postinstall scripts (postinstall.httpd and postinstall.tomcat) informations -- Not sure what these are, can you clarify Weinan?

2. Prerequisites:

Weinan can you confirm or add to the above list?

We have postinstall for Zip distribution of httpd:

jboss-ews-2.0/httpd/.postinstall

It's used to setup environment for the user to use jboss-ews correctly.

I haven't heard of postinstall for tomcat6/7, do we have it? I'll ask Permaine to confirm this :-)

Comment 8 Misha H. Ali 2012-10-19 01:56:23 UTC
Updated the Prerequisited list below with the above:

http://file.bne.redhat.com/~mhusnain/EWS2/Installation_Guide/tmp/en-US/html/ch-Installing_EWS_on_Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux.html#sec-Prerequisites-Linux

Also, added these packages to the install command here:

Procedure 2.2. Installing Required Packages (same link)

Also, the postinstall commands are addressed and updated in another bug, so these should be OK now as well.

Comment 9 Libor Fuka 2012-10-19 12:30:42 UTC
It seems OK, but verify distcache and pcre prerequisities with Weinan.
Its in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=864391

Comment 10 Misha H. Ali 2012-10-21 23:09:36 UTC
Added Wei Nan to the linked bug to clarify about pcre and distcache. If the rest of the issues for this bug is OK by you, Libor, could you set it to VERIFIED.

Comment 11 Misha H. Ali 2012-11-08 22:10:44 UTC
This bug is set to CLOSED CURRENT RELEASE to indicate that this fix is now released and available at access.redhat.com.
