Install DataConnect Runtime Engine on Windows
To install the DataConnect Runtime Engine on Windows
1. Run the di-standalone-engine-64-bit-xxxx-win.exe file.
2. Follow the instructions on the wizard to complete the installation.
3. In the environment variables, set the following:
a. Set a DJLIB variable equal to C:\ProgramData\Actian\DataConnect\di-standalone-engine-64-bit-<DataConnect_version> where <DataConnect_version> is the version number, for example, 12.0.0-13 (this provides cosmos.ini file location to the engine)
b. Add the following to your PATH variable before any other engines are mentioned:
C:\Program Files\Actian\di-standalone-engine-64-bit-<DataConnect_version>\runtime\di9 where <DataConnect_version> is the version number, for example, 12.0.0-13 (this allows the UI to find the engine to use).
c. If required, you may create a batch file as shown that sets the DJLIB and PATH variables and then launches Eclipse:
@echo off
set path=C:\Program Files\Actian\di-standalone-engine-<DataConnect_version>\runtime\di9;%path%
set DJLIB=C:\ProgramData\Actian\DataConnect\di-standalone-engine-<DataConnect_version>
where <DataConnect_version> is the version number, for example, 12.0.0-13.
4. Open the cosmos.ini file and set the LicenseFile variable to the location of the current version’s license file (or after installing the DataConnect Studio IDE site plug-in, enable the DataConnect perspective, go to Help, About DataConnect, click Browse, and specify the license file).
5. Open any DOS command window and enter the following to test the Runtime Engine installation:
djengine -V
The DJEngine version (for example, 12.0.0-13) with a few more lines of information related to copyright and license is displayed.
