4.8.2. Install Native Components and Native Utilities (RPM Installation)

You can use the RPM installation method to install native components, utilities and all the corresponding dependencies only if you have installed EAP using RPM installation method. The RPM package method of installing natives is appropriate for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, 6 and 7. This topic covers the steps required to install the native components and utilities using the command line.

Prerequisites

Procedure 4.15. Install Native Components and Native Utilities

  1. Install native components and utilities

    To install native components and utilities in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, 6 and 7 (with their dependencies) run the following command using your administration account replacing package_name with name of the native component which you need to install: 
    yum install package_name
    You can install these native components: mod_cluster-native, mod_jk, mod_rt, mod_snmp, apache-commons-daemon-jsvc-eap6, httpd, httpd-devel, jbossas-hornetq-native, jbossas-jbossweb-native.

    Important

    The native components jbossas-hornetq-native and jbossas-jbossweb-native are installed by default when you run the yum groupinstall jboss-eap6 command to install JBoss EAP 6 group package. If you have used Section 4.4.1, “Install JBoss EAP 6 (Graphical RPM Installation)” or Section 4.5.1, “Install JBoss EAP 6 (Text-based RPM Installation)” for JBoss EAP 6 installation you need not install jbossas-hornetq-native and jbossas-jbossweb-native.

    Note

    It is important to give the correct package name in order to install a specific native component. Package names are case sensitive. In Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 the name of the httpd package is httpd22. Therefore the package httpd must be replaced with httpd22 when you run yum install package_name command for installing Apache HTTP server in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

  2. Restart the server

    Restart the JBoss EAP 6 server to apply the changes
