Chapter 2. Installation
2.1. Installation Options
Red Hat JBoss BRMS comes in two versions:
- Executable JAR installer for installation on Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) 6.4.
ZIP file install which itself comes in two versions:
-
jboss-brms-6.3-deployable-eap6.x.zip: version adapted for deployment on Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP 6). -
jboss-brms-6.3-deployable-generic.zip: the deployable version with additional libraries adapted for deployment on Red Hat JBoss Web Server (EWS) and other supported containers.
-
Depending on your environment, you may choose the installation option best suited for your project needs.
Red Hat JBoss BRMS is designed to work with UTF-8 encoding. If a different encoding system is used by the underlying JVM, unexpected errors might occur. To ensure UTF-8 is used by the JVM, use the following system property: "-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8".
From Red Hat JBoss BRMS 6.1 onwards, you must have JBoss EAP 6.4 or better already installed before attempting to install Red Hat JBoss BRMS.
