Talend Installer specific prerequisites

Prior to launching the Talend Installer, confirm you followed these prerequisites:

  • you have downloaded a Talend-Tools-Installer-YYYYYYYY_YYYY-VA.B.C-installer.zip file holding a folder.

    In the folder that you will extract, you will find a dist file and executable files corresponding to the supported operating systems.

    For Linux, use Talend-Tools-Installer-YYYYYYYY_YYYY-V-A.B.C-linux64-installer.run.

    In the file name, YYYYYYYY_YYYY is the timestamp and A.B.C is the revision level (Major.Minor.Patch).

    The dist file is only required to install Talend products. Once the installation and configuration is complete, you can remove it.

  • you have downloaded two files, a Zip and a dist file, which are both stored in the same directory.

    In the Zip file that you will extract in this directory, you will find executable files for every supported operating system.

    For Linux, use Talend-Installer-YYYYYYYY_YYYY-VA.B.C-linux64-installer.run

    In the file name, YYYYYYYY_YYYY is the timestamp and A.B.C is the revision level (Major.Minor.Patch).

    The dist file is only required to install Talend products. Once the installation and configuration is complete, you can remove it.

  • the following software and modules are correctly set up on the station where you are to install the Talend modules:

    • JRE 1.8.0 or higher

    • (optional) a mail server to send notifications by email

  • to enable Talend Installer graphical installation mode with Rocky Linux, before launching the Installer as a root user, use the command xhost local:root as a regular user.
  • if Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux) is activated before you run the Talend Installer, it might prevent the installation of some applications. You should temporarily deactivate SELinux by running the following command: setenforce Permissive. SELinux will reactivate automatically after the next reboot.

A umask value of 022 is required during installation. Other umask values are not supported.

Note that Talend Installer does not support the sdshell utility.

IMPORTANT:

Talend Installer allows you to get out-of-the-box Talend solutions that do not require any manual installation. However, these solutions are not provided in a production-ready environment as they may require additional configurations or optimizations according to your specific needs.

For example, you may want to change the H2 database that is embedded by default in Talend Administration Center with your own database (MySQL or Oracle for example). If you do this, you need to install the driver for the relevant database. For more information, see Installing database drivers in your Web application server.

Information noteTip: Talend Installer is used only for first installations of Talend solutions. For more information about the migration and upgrade processes, see Talend Migration and Upgrade Guide.
