These instructions are meant to assist users without access to a graphical environment in the manual process of installing the Community TSC D2OL client via a zipped tar distribution. If a graphical environment is available, it is HIGHLY recommended to use the regular D2OL installer instead of following this process.

Installation for 2.0 and newer clients

1. Download the tarred and zipped distribution file (ends in .tar.gz) to the location where you would like to install the application. If you are upgrading a previous installation this is the directory that contains the CommunityTSC directory for the CommunityTSC project.
2. Go to the directory where you downloaded the file and unzip it: "gunzip <filename>"
3. If you are upgrading an existing client, make sure to exit it BEFORE going on to step 4.
4. Extract the the resulting tar file (it should now end with just .tar): "tar -xf <filename>"
   For new installations, this will create a CommunityTSC directory for the CommunityTSC project.

For upgrade installations, this will replace all the necessary files, leaving your settings, node ID, and assigned tasks in tact.

5. You must edit the D2OL.lax file to specify the install location. The D2OL.lax file can be found in the CommunityTSC/TSC directory.
   The 'lax.root.install.dir' property must be set equal to the absolute path of the main install directory. This is the absolute path to the CommunityTSC directory.

The 'lax.dir' property must be set equal to the absolute path of the directory that contains the D2OL.lax file. This is the absolute path to the CommunityTSC/TSC directory.

ONLY if you installed a distribution that did NOT include a Java JVM must you edit the 'lax.nl.current.vm' property to specify the absolute path to your java binary.

All other properties in the D2OL.lax file can be left as is.

6. Run the D2OL binary. For the CommunityTSC project, the binary is at CommunityTSC/TSC/D2OL.

   Note: For Sun machines only, you must run the D2OL.sh script instead of running the binary directly.
