Installing Message Broker on Linux

  1. Close all applications.
  2. Navigate to the directory that contains the downloaded files.
  3. Run the downloaded installer.
  4. Run the binary file using the command ./mpxservices.bin.
    Note: When installing or uninstalling on a non-Microsoft Windows platform, specify the installed Java VM to use as a parameter when running the installer. This step is necessary because Java VMs for non-Microsoft Windows operating systems are not bundled with the installers. If you experience any difficulties when running the command ./mpxservices.bin, add the parameter LAX_VM and specify the path to your VM. For example: ./mpxservices.bin LAX_VM /usr/java/latest/jre/bin/java.
    Note: If the OpenSSL toolkit (openssl097a-0.9.7a-9.i386.rpm) and the Compatibility standard C++ libraries (compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-61.i386.rpm) are not installed, the MPX Services installer will prompt you to install them before continuing with the installation of StarTeam Message Broker.
