Ambience Dream contains the complete Ambience experience. The installation of Ambience Dream is simple and straightforward on a clean machine, and the supported operating systems include Debian, Windows and OSX. Ambience Dream is easy to use and saves your time and efforts, without the need of running any services or setting up any user accounts.
Ambience Dream installation starts with unzipping the elx-dream-install.zip file, which resides in the /dream folder. Read on for more detailed instructions.
Decompress /dream/elx-dream-install.zip in to a folder on your machine. It is recommended to avoid
using the Program Files folder on Windows, because this folder requires more restrictive permissions.
Optional: If Ambience is already running on your machine, edit /.elixirtech/zookeeper.properties by adding the following line:
domain.dream=tangerine
You can use any password (tangerine is our choice). If you don't have a zookeeper.properties file, no action is required, because it will be created for you.
Optional: If Ambience services are running, please stop the services before you proceed. This will prevent zookeeper conflicts as the standalone version includes its own zookeeper.
Change the directory (cd) to the /bin directory and run init.sh or init.bat, according to the operating system.
This will install the zookeeper default properties (including license) from tmp/zk, and then install the standard filesystems (ElixirSamples and so on) from tmp/dacapo.
The domain for the Dream solution is dream. If you choose to use the Dream solution, use dream for a domain wherever you are prompted.
The tmp/ folder is no longer used after initialization. You have the option to delete the tmp/ folder. You can also keep this folder if you wish to reset later.
After the init.sh or init.bat file finishes running, Ambience Dream is successfully installed.
