RQM Installation on windows 8

0
shai brumer (8●1●2) | asked Dec 12 '13, 5:18 a.m.
 Hi,

I noticed that windows 8 is not a supported OS, 
but I was wondering if there is a way to install it on windows 8 just for evaluation.

Thanks in advance,
Shai.

If you have just completed the install you will need to first ensure that you have started the server 
Then...
Point your Web browser to the following address: https://[fully qualified hostname]:9443/jts/setup

I would recommend reviewing the online help topic:

Running the setup wizard 

Installing > Installing the Rational solution for CLM > Configuring the server
Running the setup wizard

Hi Shai,

Ralph replied to something similar in forum post: https://jazz.net/forum/questions/118543/installing-rtc-in-windows-8

I found https://jazz.net/jazz/web/projects/Jazz%20Foundation#action=com.ibm.team.workitem.viewWorkItem&id=168119 which you can track the progress of Windows 8.

As Sumant says, unsupported essentially means untested, so we wouldn't know what could happen.  You would need to reproduce any issue on Windows 7 (or any other supported platform) before raising a defect.

Also, as Ralph points out, it will probably work quite well but maybe with the odd exception.

Cheers.

Paul

 Hi Shai

Just for evaluation purpose you can try to install RQM on Windows 8 and see if you succeed. The steps should be the same as for any other supported Windows OS. In case of any errors or roadblocks troubleshooting might be restricted due to the unsupported OS version being the culprit. 

It is not a recommended way as well to use this installation, if successful even as a staging/test server.

Hi,

I tried to install it but I'm getting an error message in the prerequisite section on the installation...
It say's that the operating system is not recognized.

I was wondering if I can change something in the installation configuration so it will let me finish the install.

Thanks,
Shai.

Hi Shai,

Which version are you using? Are you also trying to install the server?  I often, purely for test purposes, install on unsupported systems and just ignore that message...but I haven't tried to install 4.0.5 yet, so maybe they've blocked this?

Regards,

Paul

Well I ignored the message,
but how can I know if the installation worked?
What is the default URL for the RQM?

sorry for the trivial questions but I'm new to the product.

Thanks,
Shai.
