System Requirements

The machine in which the PADRES is to be installed should satisfy the following software requirements:

Linux OS with bash shell
Java 1.6
Java RMI Registry
Java third party libraries (given the minimum versions):
- log4j-1.2.13.jar: Java logging library
- pg73jdbc3.jar: PostgresSQL JDBC Driver
- jung-1.7.6.jar: Java Universal Network/Graph Framework
- colt.jar: Cern Colt Scientific Library
- commons-collections-3.2.jar: Apache Jakarta Commons Collections
- simple-3.1.3.jar
- derby.jar (10.7.1.1): Apache Derby

Required libraries are included in the package. However, note that, PADRES uses NewRete matching engine by default. If you want to use Jess matching engine, you have to download it yourself. More details can be found here.

Installing PADRES

Uncompress the binary package.
- It will create padres directory inside the directory where you downloaded the PADRES package.
Run the install.sh script found in the newly created directory to install PADRES.
- The script will create a padres directory inside the installation directory and install the binaries, scripts, libraries, and configuration files there. By default, the installation directory is /usr/local/, and therefore you have to run the script with the administrator privilege or change the installation directory (see below.)
- If you want to change the PADRES default installation directory, you can run the install script with the -d option as:
  $ ./install.sh [-d <install_dir>]
- You can use the install script to install PADRES anywhere in your home directory or you can just treat the created padres-vX directory itself as the installation directory (without using the install script at all.)
Set the environment variables:
- Make sure the JAVA_HOME environment variable is set.
- Set an enviornment variable PADRES_HOME with the absolute path of the padres directory.
  $ export PADRES_HOME=<padres_directory>
  Change the value of the <padres_directory> accordingly. It will be /usr/local/padres/, if you use the default installation directory.
- Add $PADRES_HOME/bin/ to your PATH variable.
  $ export PATH="$PATH:$PADRES_HOME/bin"
- Include these export statements in your ~/.bashrc file to avoid setting the variables every time you reboot your system.
