Problems extracting the install.jar from the DVD .iso file

Products

• Clarity PPM On Premise
• Clarity PPM SaaS

Issue/Introduction

When directly unzipping the installation file for Clarity PPM 15.7, DVD0000000001001.iso, 3 install jar files are generated.

Extracting the install.jar file does not generate any files:
# jar -xvf install.jar
# ls -lta

Cause

This problem is happening if directly unzipping the .iso file, as the .jar file is too large.

Environment

Clarity PPM 15.x

Resolution

This can be solved by mounting the ISO file and copying the .jar file.
