Issue/Introduction

In the ENWSInstallOptions.properties file there is parm:

CLEAN_ENDEVOR_TOMCAT_INSTANCE=

Not sure what it means when the documentation say the location is cleared.   Cleared of what?  When would you specify 'yes', when would you specify 'no'.


Environment

Release : 18

Component : CA Endevor Software Change Manager

Resolution

CLEAN_ENDEVOR_TOMCAT_INSTANCE  Indicates if the ENDEVOR_TOMCAT_INSTANCE location is cleared. 

  • If unset, the installation process checks whether you want to clear the location
  • If set to Y, the location is cleared
  • If set to N, the location is not cleared


The installation script (ENWSIns.sh) check the existence of  $ENDEVOR_TOMCAT_INSTANCE,  if directory exist, and CLEAN_ENDEVOR_TOMCAT_INSTANCE =Y, 

ENWSIns.sh will issue the following command: 

rm -rf $ENDEVOR_TOMCAT_INSTANCE


And later in the script, if will created and populate $ENDEVOR_TOMCAT_INSTANCE  


This method is also called CLEAN install of the Web Services. 


CLEAN install can be  used to run installation script multiple times.   


if CLEAN_ENDEVOR_TOMCAT_INSTANCE is unset, the installation script will prompt user for yes or no during the installation.
