Java and Environment Variables Check

JDK 1.8.x must be installed for the X-PUSH server to operate.

You must install the JDK - not a JRE - to run X-PUSH as a HotSpot Server.

Java installation status and environment variable settings can be verified using the following method:

In the Windows environment, run "java –version" in the command window.

java –version

In the Unix/Linux environment, run "java –version" in the shell.

java –version

If you do not see the above outputs, you must install Java. Please refer to https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/overview/index.html for Java installation details.

Network Setup

An X-PUSH Server uses a single network connection for one client access. To allow simultaneous access for multiple clients, the network properties in the operating system must be set to allow for the simultaneous socket connections of the message provider, monitoring access, etc. The default setting value for Windows and Linux operating systems is generally 1,000. Therefore, the desired value must be set to support more than 1,000 client connections.

Network-related parameter setting methods vary by operating system. Contact your server administrator for detailed setting methods.

X-PUSH Installation

The following information denotes $XPUSH_HOME as the location of an X-PUSH Server installation regardless of the operating system.

Windows Environment Installation

Extract the xpush-2.8.x.zip file to the path where X-PUSH is to be installed.

Open the $xpush-2.8.x/bin/set_xpush.bat file and set JAVA_HOME and XPUSH_HOME.

set JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_XX
set XPUSH_HOME=I:\xpush-2.8.x

Be sure to exclude the final backslash "\" when setting "C:\xpush-2.8.0" as the XPUSH_HOME value.

Unix/Linux Environment Installation

Extract the xpush-2.8.x.tar.gz file to the path where X-PUSH is to be installed.

tar zxvf xpush-2.8.x.tar.gz
or
gzip -d xpush-2.8.x.tar.gz
tar xvf xpush-2.8.x.tar.gz

Open $xpush-2.8.x/bin/set_xpush.sh file and set JAVA_HOME and XPUSH_HOME.

JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk.x86_64
XPUSH_HOME=/home/xpush/xpush-2.8.0

Make sure that the value set in the environment variable XPUSH_HOME does not end with “\” like C:\xpush-2.8.0\.
