Standard API Gateway Patch Installation Instructions

Problem

* An API Gateway patch was found under downloads as a zip or tar.gz file and it's not clear how to install it.

Resolution

-- Unless there are special instructions in the release notes, standard installation instructions apply:

  • Patch will overwrite files. Advisable to backup existing files contained in the archive (.tar.gz or .zip)
  • Stop Gateway
  • Install files
       On Linux/Solaris
       tar xvzf patch_name.tar.gz -C <Install root>
       (where <Install root> default for gateway is /opt/Axway/apigateway)
       
       On Windows
       Extract zip archive with appropriate tool onto Install root directory
       (where Install root default for gateway is c:\Axway\apiateway)   
  • Restart Gateway

Notes:  Patches apply to the listed version/platform only, unless otherwise specified.  These instructions do not apply to Service Packs.  Please consult the Service Pack's release notes for instructions.  An SP would normally supersede and therefore require the removal of all patches.
