## Before You Install

Before you begin installing Oracle Data Service Integrator, confirm that the following prerequisites are met:

- WebLogic Server 10g Release 3 is installed in the `<bea_home>` directory in which you are installing Oracle Data Service Integrator. The Oracle Data Service Integrator installer application installs WebLogic Server 10g Release 3 if it is not present.
- Any previous installations of Oracle Data Service Integrator have been uninstalled. For details see Chapter 5, “Uninstalling Oracle Data Service Integrator.”
- For Windows (and UNIX and Linux), an entry for the JDK160_05 bin directory (for example: `<bea_home>/JDK160_05/bin`) is included in your PATH environment variable setting before any other JDK `bin` directories.

Note: | By default, Workshop for WebLogic (Eclipse 3.3.2) is available for installation with Oracle Data Service Integrator in the `<bea_home>\workshop_10.3\workshop4WP directory`. If you are planning to use an Eclipse version that is not bundled with Oracle Data Service Integrator, you need to manually clean up the Eclipse configuration directory to avoid some known issues in Eclipse 3.2.2. All files except `config.ini` and files under `.settings` subdirectory should be deleted.

For additional information about installation prerequisites, see Installation Notes in Chapter 1, “Preparing to Install Oracle Data Service Integrator.”

## Installing Using GUI Mode

This section describes how to install Oracle Data Service Integrator using the GUI mode on Microsoft Windows and supported UNIX and Linux-based platforms.

To install Oracle Data Service Integrator in GUI mode:

1. Launch the GUI installer.

On Microsoft Windows-based systems:

1. Navigate to the folder to which you downloaded the Oracle Data Service Integrator installer using Windows Explorer.
2. Double-click the installer executable file. For example:

`odsi1030_win32.exe`

On UNIX and Linux-based systems:

3. Verify that the console attached to the machine on which you are installing the software supports a Java-based GUI.
4. Open a command window, and change (cd) to the directory to which you downloaded the Oracle Data Service Integrator installer file.
5. Start the installer in a new shell by entering the following:

`sh` `filename``.bin`

where `filename``.bin` is the name of the Oracle Data Service Integrator installation program specific to your platform. For example, enter the following to start the Solaris version of the Oracle Data Service Integrator installation program:

`sh odsi1030_solaris32.bin`

The installer application welcomes you to install Oracle Data Service Integrator.

2. Click Next to begin the installation. A screen appears enabling you to specify the BEA Home directory.

The BEA Home directory (`<bea_home>`) serves as the central support directory for Oracle Data Service Integrator.

3. Specify the BEA Home directory, and click Next.

You can also choose to create a new BEA Home directory if this is an initial installation.

Or you can choose a directory from the list or type the directory name in the BEA Home Directory field. You must install Oracle Data Service Integrator in the same home directory where you installed WebLogic Server 10g Release 3.

A screen appears enabling you to choose the products and components to install.

4. Choose the components and click Next.

A screen appears enabling you to specify the directory where you want to install Oracle Data Service Integrator and related components. By default, Oracle Data Service Integrator is installed in `<bea_home>\odsi_10.3.`

5. Specify the installation directories, and click Next.

A screen appears enabling you to select the Start Menu folder in which you want to create the shortcuts.

6. Select the shortcut location, and click Next.

The Installation Summary screen appears.

7. Click Next.
8. The installer displays a progress screen, and begins installing the files on your system. When the installation is complete, the Installation Complete screen appears. Click Done.

You have successfully installed an instance of Oracle Data Service Integrator.

9. After you have installed Oracle Data Service Integrator, you may choose to launch quickstart. If you choose this option, the quickstart window displays, showing links to start applications, upgrade applications, or access product documentation.
