In PeopleTools 8.50, PeopleSoft does not document the command line parameter needed to run the installation in GUI mode for Linux/Unix servers. The installation defaults to console mode. To get the same GUI experience, you can use the following command line flag.
-i swing
So of you have downloaded the PeopleTools installation media to PS_INSTALL, you can run the following.
PS_INSTALL/Disk1/setup.sh –tempdir $HOME/tmp –i swing
(Note tempdir is a documented command line parameter to use the folder other than /tmp. It requires at least 2GB free space in temp folder).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Usage: setup [-f <path_to_installer_properties_file> | -options]
(to execute the installer)
where options include:
-?
show this help text
-i [swing | console | silent]
specify the user interface mode for the installer
-D<name>=<value>
specify installer properties
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I will be curious, if there is a way to do silent install by providing all the needed input in a properties file. I do not see this documented any where.
Note: This method applies to other installation type for e.g. Verity Install.

Hi..
I would like to install peoplesoft in my personal comp. Could you please tell how should I go about doing it.
I came accross the site edelivery.oracle.com providing the files for downloading and installation of peoplesoft.
But if somebody could guide me on which files are mandatory and can i install only peopletools first ..is the HRMS/CRM package type necessary to be installed.
And I already have oracle 10g installed on my pc.Should I still download the files related to oracle database from the site.
Please advise.
Thanks in advance.
