Resource Manager Installation

The Lingoport Resource Manager System is composed of three items:

  • the Lingoport Resource Manager: The Server keeps track of all the actions and the expected results. The server is best located on one central system accessible by all clients. This section describes the installation of LRM.
  • Jenkins: Jenkins orchestrates the execution of the commands, such as verifying files to be sent for translation via a light Java application. Jenkins needs to communicate with the Lingoport Resource Manager server and is best co-located with LRM. The Jenkins setup is the subject of another guide.
  • the Dashboard: the Lingoport Dashboard aggregates and displays data from both the Resource Manager and Globalyzer. Its installation is the subject of another guide.


Pre-requisites

  1. Supported OS: Linux
  2. Installed Java 7 or greater JRE on the target machine. You can check your Java version using the command line. At the command prompt enter: java -version The version of Java which you have on your system should be displayed. If you need to install Java, please refer to http://www.java.com/en/download/index.jsp or any Java download page which supplies Java 7 or above.
  3. Installed MySQL 5.1 or higher on a database server. If the database server is not the same machine as the target machine, then you will need to install the MySQL 5.x Client (only need Client) on the target machine so that it can access the database on the separate database server.
    • You can verify that you have a sufficiently up-to-date version of MySQL using the command prompt. In the command prompt type:
    mysql -u <user> -p<password>
    • If MySQL is installed on your system, information on the version will be displayed after entering a valid username and password. If MySQL is not version 5.1 or higher, please refer to a download site, such as http://dev.mysql.com/downloads and install an up-to-date version.
    • You will need to enter the MySQL credentials (host, username, password and port number) during the installation.
  4. Received the Licensing information from Lingoport. When your company purchased LRM you should have been sent an email containing the licensing information. This licensing information will be required for the server installation. If you do not have the licensing information of the jar file, please contact support@lingoport.com. Please keep it handy while you perform the install.
  5. Installer jar file: you must have the Lingoport_Resource_Manager_Server-<x.x>-Installer.jar file.

  6. MySQL Time Zone: MySQL time zone must be non-ambiguous. An example of an ambiguous time zone is 'MST' whereas 'America/Denver' is a non-ambiguous time zone. Refer to MySQL documentation for your specific OS to set time zones appropriately.
    • For Window, you should be able to type SET GLOBAL time_zone = 'America/Denver’ at the MySQL prompt.
    • For Linux, you could for instance type mysql_tzinfo_to_sql /usr/share/zoneinfo/|mysql -u root mysql -p from the command line and then SET GLOBAL time_zone = 'America/Denver’ at the MySQL prompt.
    • For MacOS, you may for instance type mysql_tzinfo_to_sql /usr/share/zoneinfo/|mysql -D mysql -u root mysql -p from the command line and then SET GLOBAL time_zone = 'America/Denver’ at the MySQL prompt.

LRM Installation

Run the installer by either:

  • double clicking on the Lingoport_Resource_Manager_Server-<x.x>-Installer.jar
  • running “java –jar Lingoport_Resource_Manager_Server-<x.x>-Installer.jar“ at the command prompt.

The Lingoport Resource Manager will then prompt you for license information and database settings to create the database tables in MySQL. Please note that the connection settings and the company ID in the server installation will be used in the subsequent client installations.


Once you have retrieved your licensing information and ensured that all requirements are met, run the LRM Server installer.

Installing for the First Time

  • Double-click on the Lingoport_Resource_Manager_Server-<x.x>-Installer.jar file, or

From the command line, cd to the directory with the installer and type: java –jar Lingoport_Resource_Manager_Server-<x.x>-Installer.jar The installer will prompt you for license information and database settings to create the MySQL LRM database.

Updating Your Existing Installation

If you are upgrading your LRM Server to a newer version, or are changing your LRM license, make sure that you do not overwrite the existing database.

  • Double-click on the Lingoport_Resource_Manager_Server-<x.x>-Installer.jar file, or
  • From the command line, cd to the directory with the installer and type:

java –jar Lingoport_Resource_Manager_Server-<x.x>-Installer.jar

On the Type of Installation page, be sure to select either Update Server.

Adding or Updating the License

Depending on your licensing agreement, you will have a license for one or more groups. Each group must have a license. To update or add a new license to your current installation, open a command prompt and type:

  • java -jar <LRM_INSTALLTION_PATH>/lrm-cli.jar -cp - to update an existing license for a group
  • java -jar <LRM_INSTALLTION_PATH>/lrm-cli.jar -cp - to add a new group with a license

Moving Server DB from 1.0 to 1.x

The fileDirectory column was not used in 1.0 and was dropped from the schema starting with 1.1. For clients that are existing LRM 1.0 user, run the following command:

  • ALTER TABLE translated_kit DROP Column fileDirectory
