Installing iFolder

IMPORTANT:  Apache 2, Java, SSL, and the server version of Linux must already be installed and configured before you install iFolder. For Solaris, you must install Apache 2 and SSL. If you have not already done so, complete the tasks in Before You Install iFolder before beginning the installation.

  1. Review the information in Things You Should Know during the Installation before beginning the installation.

    2.

  2. Copy install.bin to a directory on your server.

    NOTE:  You must have Read and Execute permissions to run this file.

    3.

  3. Go to the directory that contains install.bin and enter

    sh ./install.bin

  4. Follow the on-screen instructions.

    5.

  5. Do one of the following:

    • For Linux, add this command to the end of /etc/profile

      ulimit -n 2048

      NOTE:   Adding this command to the end of /etc/profile permanently sets the hard limit for file descriptors to 2048. This number (2048) depends on your server load. You must adjust this accordingly.

      •

    • For Solaris, add these commands to the end of /etc/system

      set rlim_fd_max = 4096

      set rlim_fd_cur = 1024

      NOTE:  These commands set the hard limit on file descriptors to 4096 and the soft limit on file descriptors to 1024. These numbers (4096, 1024) depend on your server load. You must adjust this accordingly.
