Directories

The following variables are used throughout this information center as shorthand for commonly used directories. The paths vary depending on your application server.

You can run the software on Jetty, WebSphere® Application Server, WebSphere Application Server Community Edition, or Apache Tomcat.

CHANGE_HOME

Specifies the installation directory used during product installation.

For example, here is a default installation on Windows using Jetty.

C:\Program Files\IBM\Rational\Change\5.3

Here is an example of a default installation on UNIX using Tomcat:

/usr/local/rc53

CHANGE_APP_HOME

Specifies the installation directory that contains the main files.

Here is an example of Windows using Jetty:

C:\Program Files\IBM\Rational\Change\5.3\jetty\webapps\context

Here is an example of UNIX using Tomcat:

/usr/local/rc53/context

Note: The context directory name varies, depending on how you installed the software.

The location of the Rational® Change web application product files is slightly different based on the web server. The variable CHANGE_APP_HOME is used to abstract these differences, as shown in these examples:

Jetty: CHANGE_HOME/jetty/webapps/context/

WebSphere Application Server: CHANGE_HOME/context.ear/context.war/

WebSphere Application Server Community Edition: CHANGE_HOME/context/

Tomcat: CHANGE_HOME/context/
