You can install Ingres CAFE from the LFY CD provided. On Linux, you must log in and install as the root user. You should also make sure that no other packages (for example, updates) are running before atempting to run the install. Copy the Ingres CAFE jar file to your hard drive and from a terminal window, type the following:

Then press Enter. The jar launches the GUI installer. The installer prompts you to accept the licence agreement. Ingres CAFE is licensed under the Eclipse Public License so accept the licence agreement and click Next. CAFE is installed in /usrllocal/lngresCaje unless you change the. path on the next screen. Click Next to continue. The following screen allows you to select optional packages to install, so again simply click Next to continue. Theinstallation then displays an installation status window. When the packages have been installed, the Next button is activated. Click Next and CAFE configures the various components. When configuration is complete, the installation is finished and you can click Done.
