This document describes installation procedures for - binary releases. Documentation of build and installation - procedures for the source release can be found in the source - tree at the following locations:

- - Building and Installing Erlang/OTP - $ERL_TOP/INSTALL.md - Cross Compiling Erlang/OTP - $ERL_TOP/INSTALL-CROSS.md - How to Build Erlang/OTP on Windows - $ERL_TOP/INSTALL-WIN32.md - -

Where $ERL_TOP is the top directory in the source tree.

- Introduction -

The system is delivered as a single compressed tar file.

To browse the on-line HTML documentation, Netscape or an equivalent - browser supporting frames is needed.

- Installation Procedure -

When installed, the entire system, except for a small start-up - script, resides in a single directory tree. The location of this - directory tree can be chosen arbitrarily by the installer, and it - does not need to be in the user's $PATH. The only requirements - are that the file system where it is placed has enough free space, - and that the users who run Erlang/OTP have read access to it. In the - example below, the directory tree is assumed to be located at - /usr/local/erlang, which is here called the top-level directory.

-

It is assumed that you have the compressed tar file, the name of - which is .tar.gz]]>, where ]]> is a string - denoting the particular Erlang/OTP release, e.g. - otp_LXA_11930_sunos5_R9B.

-

Wherever the string ]]> is used below, it should - be replaced by the actual name prefix of the compressed tar file.

-

The tape archive file does not have one single directory in which - all other files are rooted. Therefore the tape archive file must be - extracted into an empty (newly created) directory.

- - -

If the top-level directory does not already exist, - create it:

- 
-mkdir /usr/local/erlang
- - -

Change the current directory to the top level directory:

- 
-cd /usr/local/erlang
- - -

Create the installation directory with an appropriate - name. For example:

- 
-mkdir otp_r7b
- - -

Change to the installation directory, e.g.

- 
-cd otp_r7b
- - -

Assuming the compressed tar file resides in the directory - ]]>,. extract the compressed tar file into the - current directory:

- 
-gunzip -c <SOME-DIR>/<PREFIX>.tar.gz | tar xfp -
- - -

Read the README file in the installation directory for - last minute updates, before proceeding.

- - -

Run the Install script in the installation directory, - with the absolute path of the installation directory as argument,

- 
-./Install /usr/local/erlang/otp_r7b
-

and supply answers to the prompts.

-

In most cases, there is a default answer in square brackets - ([]). If the default is satisfactory, just press - ]]>. In general you are only prompted for one thing:

- - -

"Do you want to use a minimal system startup instead of the - SASL startup?"

- - In a minimal system, only the Kernel and STDLIB applications - are loaded and started. If the SASL startup is used, the SASL - application is included as well. Normally, the minimal system - is enough.

- - - - -

Make Erlang/OTP available for users, either by putting the path - /usr/local/erlang/otp_r7b/bin in users $PATH - variable, or link the executable - /usr/local/erlang/otp_r7b/bin/erl accordingly, e.g.:

- 
-ln -s /usr/local/erlang/otp_r7b/bin/erl /usr/local/bin/erl
