Installation NotesJava Web Services Developer Pack v1.1 (Java WSDP)
|
|
The Java Web Services Developer Pack (Java WSDP) software is supported on Windows 2000 and XP. In addition, the Java WSDP software can also be installed, but is unsupported, on Windows 95, 98, ME, and NT 4.0.
To install the Java WSDP software, you need version 1.3.1 or higher of the following software already installed on your computer:
This software can be downloaded on the J2SE website.
You should have at least 70 megabytes of free disk space and 70 megabytes of free temporary disk space before attempting to install the Java WSDP software.
In this procedure, you will run the self-installing executable to unpack and install the Java WSDP software bundle.
If you have any difficulties, see the Troubleshooting section at the end of this document or use this link to report an installation problem.
1. Check the download file size
If you saved the self-installing executable to disk without running it from the download page at the Java Software website, check to see that you have the complete file:jwsdp-1_1-windows-i586.exe34,524,564 bytes
2. Uninstall Early Access Versions of the Java WSDP
If you have previously installed a version of the Java WSDP (EA or FCS), uninstall it. Use the Microsoft Windows Add/Remove Programs utility, accessible from the Control Panel (Start --> Settings --> Control Panel).
3. Run the Java WSDP installer
The file jwsdp-1_1-windows-i586.exe is the Java WSDP installer. If you downloaded it instead of running it directly from the website, double-click on the installer's icon and follow the instructions.You can also install the Java WSDP from the command line, by using the
consoleoption, as shown:
C:\> jwsdp-1_1-windows-i586.exe -consoleFollow the instructions that are displayed.
When you are done with the installation, you can delete the download file to recover disk space.
There will also be an entry for Java Web Services Developer Pack 1.1 in the Start --> Programs menu.
4. Delete the downloaded file (Optional)
If you want to recover disk space, delete the file (or files) you originally downloaded.
You can run the Java WSDP without setting the PATH variable, or you can optionally set it as a convenience.Set the PATH variable to include ant, if you want to be able to conveniently run the Java WSDP samples that use ant (e.g., JAXB examples).Add the full path of the ant bin directory in the Java WSDP installation directory to the beginning of your PATH variable. Prepend "jakarta-ant-1.5.1/bin" to the directory where JWSDP is installed.
Should I set the PATH variable?
Set the PATH variable if you want to be able to conveniently run the Java WSDP executables (startup.bat,shutdown.bat,ant.bat, etc.) from any directory without having to type the full path of the command. If you don't set the PATH variable, you need to specify the full path to the executable every time you run it, such as:C:> c:\jwsdp-1_1\bin\startup.batIt's useful to set the PATH permanently so it will persist after rebooting.
How do I set the PATH permanently?
To set the PATH permanently, add the full path of the bin directory in the Java WSDP installation directory to the PATH variable. Typically this full path looks something like C:\jwsdp-1_1\bin. Set the PATH as follows:Windows 2000, XP, and NT 4.0 - To set the PATH permanently:
- Choose Start, Settings, Control Panel, and double-click System. On Windows NT, select the Environment tab; on Windows 2000 select the Advanced tab and then Environment Variables. Look for "Path" in the User Variables and System Variables. If you're not sure where to add the path, add it to the right end of the "Path" in the User Variables. A typical value for PATH is:
C:\jwsdp-1_1\binCapitalization doesn't matter. Click "Set", "OK" or "Apply".
The PATH can be a series of directories separated by semi-colons (;). Microsoft Windows looks for programs in the PATH directories in order, from left to right. You should only have one bin directory for a Java WSDP installation in the path at a time (those following the first are ignored), so if one is already present, you can update it.
- The new path takes effect in each new Command Prompt window you open after setting the PATH variable.
Windows 95 and 98 - To set the PATH permanently, open the AUTOEXEC.BAT file and add or change the PATH statement as follows:
- Start the system editor. Choose "Start", "Run" and enter sysedit, then click OK. The system editor starts up with several windows. Go to the window that is displaying AUTOEXEC.BAT
- Look for the PATH statement. (If you don't have one, add one.) If you're not sure where to add the path, add it to the right end of the PATH. For example, in the following PATH statement, we have added the bin directory at the right end:
PATH C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND;C:\JWSDP-1_1\BINCapitalization doesn't matter. The PATH can be a series of directories separated by semi-colons (;). Microsoft Windows searches for programs in the PATH directories in order, from left to right. You should only have one bin directory for a Java WSDP installation in the path at a time (those following the first are ignored), so if one is already present, you can update it.
- To make the path take effect in the current Command Prompt window, execute the following:
C:> c:\autoexec.batTo find out the current value of your PATH, to see if it took effect, at the command prompt, type:
C:> pathWindows ME - To set the PATH permanently:
From the Start menu, choose Programs, Accessories, System Tools, and System Information. This brings up a window titled "Microsoft Help and Support". From here, choose the Tools menu, then select the System Configuration utility. Click the Environment tab, select PATH and press the Edit button. Now add the Java WSDP bin directory to your PATH as described in step b above. After you have added the Java WSDP bin directory to your PATH, save the changes and reboot your machine when prompted.
Your computer system should now be ready to use the Java WSDP.
If you should ever want to uninstall the Java WSDP, use the "Add/Remove Programs" utility in the Microsoft Windows Control Panel.

Troubleshooting the Installation
Below are some tips for working around problems that are sometimes seen during or following an installation. Since the Java WSDP installer is written in Java, it is possible that you may encounter problems that are due to the particular Java 2 SDK that is installed on your machine. If you encounter a problem that is not listed below, please check Java FAQ for additional troubleshooting information.
