Completing the installation

The \Buyer subdirectory resides under the \connectors\Buyer directory (see Table 2). The files in this subdirectory contain certain configuration information for the adapter channel.

To complete the installation, copy this subdirectory on top of the Ariba Buyer 8 home directory and update the class path, as follows.

  1. Copy the \Buyer subdirectory from the source directory on top of \<Ariba Buyer Server root>\; for example, \Ariba\app\Buyer\
  2. Modify /Ariba/app/Buyer/classes/classpath.txt by adding these entries:

    #IBM ERP Channel implementation

    classes/IBMChannel.jar

    classes/ABCommon.jar

    classes/BIA_IBMMigration.jar(required only if you have migrated from WAAB 1.x or 2.x: see Appendix C, Migrating the integration channel for details.)

  3. Save the file. You are now ready to configure Ariba Buyer.
