- download the jcowboy jar file
- download the jar files for jruby-support,mail-support, and j2sdkee-support
- it might be best to store all the additional jar files in a jar-lib directory which should look a little
bit like this:
user@host:~/jcowboy/lib-jar/$ ls -l
-rw-r--r-- 1 jcowboy jcowboy 716139 Jan 16 18:56 ant.jar
-rw-r--r-- 1 jcowboy jcowboy 105573 Jan 16 18:56 bsf.jar
drwxr-xr-x 13 jcowboy jcowboy 4096 Jan 16 18:59 j2sdkee1.2.1
-rw-r--r-- 1 jcowboy jcowboy 65368 Jan 16 18:56 jakarta-oro-2.0.6.jar
drwxrwxr-x 8 jcowboy jcowboy 4096 Jan 16 18:56 mail.jar
-rw-r--r-- 1 jcowboy jcowboy 796402 Jan 16 18:56 jruby.jar
user@host:~/jcowboy/lib-jar/$
- the next step is, to add all required .jar files to your java CLASSPATH. For this to work it is necessary to
edit the login script file (e.g. .bashrc in $HOME):
export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:~/jcowboy/lib-jar/bsf.jar:~/jcowboy/lib-jar/j2sdkee1.2.1/lib/j2see.jar:~/jcowboy/lib-jar/mail.jar:~/jcowboy/jcowboy.jar
Important: don't forget to add jcowboy.jar to your CLASSPATH as well!
- those changes to the script file will affect the environment after the next login, so we take a little shortcut
and update the environment on the fly:
user@host:~/jcowboy/lib-jar/$ export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:~/jcowboy/lib-jar/bsf.jar:~
/jcowboy/lib-jar/j2sdkee1.2.1/lib/j2see.jar:~/jcowboy/lib-jar/mail.jar:~/jcowboy/jcowboy.jar
user@host:~/jcowboy/lib-jar/$ echo $CLASSPATH
.:/home/user/jcowboy/lib-jar/bsf.jar:/home/user/jcowboy/lib-jar/j2sdkee1.2.1/lib/j2see.jar:
/home/user/jcowboy/lib-jar/mail.jar:/home/user/jcowboy/jcowboy.jar
user@host:~/jcowboy/lib-jar/$
- we're almost done... now all we have to do is download and install the additional software that jCowboy uses
for predictions:
- in the last and final step you need to edit the default.conf file, and define the binary locations for the external tools
and enter information as for example mail account info, etcpp
- Congratulations! You should now be able to use the jcowboy server :)
