PEOPLEBOOKS SETUP

1) Create PSBOOKS directory for peoplebooks setup in D:\ on Server name

i.e. D:\PSBOOKS

2) Copied TEST PS_home in to PSBOOKS (D:\PSBOOKS) directory. Delete the webserver

domain from D:\PSBOOKS directory.

3) Now, setup the peoplesoft pure internet architecture for the PSBOOKS. Go to
- D:\PSBOOKS\setup\mpinternet\setup.exe
- create a new weblogic domain during the installation, PS_HOME being D:\PSBOOKS. I named the
Domain as PSBOOKS.
- Give the AppServer name, JSL port, HTTP port and HTTPS port.

Once the installation is done, go to D:\PSBOOKS\webserv\PSBOOKS and click

installNTservicePIA.cmd, this will create a service PSBOOKS-PIA in the control panel (To start and
Stop the PSBOOKS PIA).

4) Be sure to stop PSBOOKS-PIA before the peoplebooks setup.

5) Now continue with the peoplebooks setup.

- Install peopletools 8.47, HRMS 8.8 SP1, FSCM 8.8 SP1. Be ready with the License code.
- Webserver path - D:\PSBOOKS
- Weblogic path - D:\weblogic81sp5\weblogic81
- Peoplebooks installation directory i.e. PSOL path:
D:\PSBOOKS\webserv\PSBOOKS\applications\peoplesoft\PSOL\htmldoc
