The Application Server is provided as a compressed Linux file: <tt>longjump_app_server.tar.gz</tt>. The file must be unpacked (uncompressed). Instructions are provided for [[#First-Time Installation|First-Time Installation]] and [[#Upgrades|Upgrades]].
;Considerations:
*By default, the application server is installed to this destination directory: <tt>/~dirname/longjump_app_server</tt>,<br>where <tt>/~dirname</tt> is defined in <tt>installation.properties</tt> as the <tt>install_dir</tt> parameter
*Upgrades to the application server should use the same destination directory
*Unpacking the <tt>.tar.gz</tt> file overwrites the <tt>longjump_app_server</tt> file in the destination directory
*Optionally, specify an <tt>install_dir</tt> path in the <tt>installation.properties</tt> file
:*That destination path should be used for future upgrades
====First-Time Installation====
If the platform has been previously installed on this server, follow the instructions at [[#Upgrades|Upgrades]]. Otherwise:
# Review the [[Installable Version Release Notes]].
# Review the [[Installable Version Release Notes]].
#Login to a command shell
# Ensure that the [[Hardware Requirements]] are met.
#Set the <tt>JAVA_HOME</tt> environment variable used by the installation/upgrade script to create configuration settings. For example:
# Ensure that the [[Software Requirements#Required for Installation]] are met.
#:<tt>export JAVA_HOME=/opt/jdk1.7.0_nn/</tt>
# [[Configure the MySQL Server]] so it is ready for use.
#Go to the directory where the install will occur. For example:
# Ensure that all database servers and web servers are configured to be in the same timezone, regardless of where they are geographically located.
#:<tt>cd /opt/{{BrandLabel}}_platform</tt>
# Use the standard SoftwareAG webMethods installer to install the platform of your choice.<br>''Learn more:''  
#Copy the archive to that directory.
#: From the [http://documentation.softwareag.com/webmethods/wmsuites/wmsuites_vers.htm webMethods documentation page] consult the respective Installation document.
#Unpack it: <tt>tar xvfz longjump_app_server.tar.gz</tt><br/>The <tt>longjump_app_server/</tt> folder is created.
# For the very first server that is installed, [[Start the Application Server]] to verify that everything is working.
# Go to the installation folder: <tt>cd longjump_app_server</tt>

#Edit <tt>[[installation.properties]]</tt>, to specify the settings for this instance.
# Install the [[Platform License]]
#Save the file and make a copy of it.
# Once installed, proceed to [[Configuring the Application Server]]
#*''The settings must be the same for subsequent upgrades.''
#Run the installation script: <tt>#./configure.pl</tt><br/>The application server is installed.
