Claros inTouch Installer Documentation

This page provides information on how to install Claros InTouch 2.2 Beta Standalone Edition using Izpack installer. Izpack is an Open Source Installer for the Java platform. It produces lightweight installers that can be run on any operating system where a Java virtual machine is available. Depending on the operating system, it can be launched by a double-click or a simple java -jar installer.jar from a shell.

Claros inTouch Standalone ships pre-configured with the Apache Tomcat 6.0.14 Web Server and pre-configured with the H2 database which is suitable for evaluation purposes. Before deploying to a production environment, we strongly recommend that you connect Claros inTouch Standalone to an enterprise database (MySql, Postgre, etc.)

Claros inTouch Standalone does not contain Java SDK, so before proceed, you must install Java SDK version 1.5 or later. To start installation please follow these steps:

  1. Download the Claros inTouch Standalone Installer (.jar) file here.
  2. Launch the installer typing "java -jar install.jar" command on Linux/Unix based platforms or double-clicking on "install.jar" on Windows based platforms.
  3. You will be prompted for input (such as the directory in which to install Claros inTouch). Note that installing the inTouch files in certain director ies, for example the default "C:\Program Files", may require you to have local administrator rights on your PC.
  4. After installation, run Tomcat using startup scripts in $INSTALL_PATH/apache-tomcat-6.0.14/bin folder.
  5. Claros inTouch is available from http://localhost:8080/intouch2 or http://your.domain.com:8080/intouch2
If you'd like to re-configure Claros inTouch later, you should edit $INSTALL_PATH/apache-tomcat-6.0.14/webapps/intouch2/WEB-INF/config/config.xml file manually.

Important : Claros In Touch 1.x and 2.x were tested with 1.5 and 1.6 only. Some features regarding file encoding were used that are not available with Java releases before 1.5.
