Installing Discovery on Server with Information Server - ibm-information-server

I am trying to install Discovery on the same server as IIS which already has a DB2 instance. As the Discovery installation guide says, to install with an existing DB2 instance the repository database must be manually configured. It then goes on to say that this can be done using scripts which are found under the install directory. In other words, before I install I have to use something only available after installation.
Has anyone got a workaround - a link to somewhere I can get the scripts perhaps?

I managed to get it working by installing onto a clean VM and then copying the scripts from the installation folder and other files referenced in the scripts onto the IIS server and running from there. Had to search and replace the DB2 install directory within the scripts as they expect a default install of :\Program Files\IBM\SQLLIB whereas the IIS default install of DB2 is to \IBM\SQLLIB.

Download RPM on Windows PC then install on Centos server

I'm really stuck in installing services in Centos server. I almost browse all the pages in Google result. I'm a Windows user and very new in Linux environment, so it makes me difficult to understand all the results from Google.
The server doesn't have option to connect to the internet. Based on my research, my only way is to download all the RPM files in a machine with internet then transfer it to my server.
Problem: I cannot find the official package list of YUM so I can download it one by one like the https://bower.io/search/. There's a lot of downloadable files showing if I type in Google "YUM php7 rpm".
Edit: I am currently using YUM because I don't know any other way to install packages in Centos. I only want to install the following :
php7
nodejs
composer
supervisor
nginx
I don't have any access to any media. I just remotely access it via putty and Filezilla. But I have root access.

How to install a plugin in redmine 1.4.4 via SSH on redmine VM?

I have got access to redmine VM via SSH and have plugin files on my local machine. Now I need to install it in redmine.
Can anyone explain the steps to do it? I am using a windows 7 machine as SSH client.
You can use SFTP client such as WinSCP (Windows client that I uses) or find any other.
SFTP is SSH File Transfer Protocol, i.e. you will have access to VM's file system via SSH connection, and Redmine plugins installation will be just files copying :)
Also, SFTP clients can launch simple commands as touch (touch tmp/restart.txt command needed to restart Ruby on Rails applications)
Put the plugin directory in the vendor/plugins sub directory of your Redmine installation. Check the plugin installation instructions for any additional steps that might be necessary.
Redmine 1.4.4 is several years old, you should first make sure with a local test that the plugin actually works with that version. And you should really upgrade to a recent version of Redmine (current stable is 3.2) as there have been quite a few security issues in Rails and Redmine since 1.4.4 was released.

Unable to install PostgreSQL on dev machine

I'm trying to install PGSQL 8.3 (and 8.4 and 9.0) on my work laptop. At the end of the installation, the installer complains it can't init the cluster. Investigating more, I noticed that the service is not even installed. I did use the "OneClick Installer", not the pgAdmin stand alone install. I tried installing as Administrator and as a regular user. In all the cases, the pgsql system account is created and the files copied, but the service is not.
I successfully installed PGSQL many times on my home PC. Both the laptop and desktop use Windows 7 64 bits (former is Professional, later is Ultimate). The only differences I can think of are that the laptop is part of an Active Directory and uses McAfee, while the desktop is only on a workgroup and uses Windows Security Essentials.
Are you sure the postgres user is allowed to create files in the data directory? The installer defaults to putting the data directory where the binaries are installed (e.g. c:\Program Files) which is usually not writeable by a regular user (and I never understood why the installer contains such an idiotic default).
McAffee could be an issue though. I have heard several stories about virus scanners infering with the Postgres (or other DBMS). Can you turn McAffee off - at least for the data directory?
Another problem could be that the installer is not able to create the postgres windows user (that is used to run the service).
If you are a local administrator on that machine, try to create the user before the installer does it. The installer will then not try to create the user account.
As a last ressort, you could install PostgreSQL without the installer (this is what I usually do).
Download the ZIP file from http://www.enterprisedb.com/products-services-training/pgbindownload
Unzip it into a convenient location
Run initdb (make sure you do that using the postgres user account - the one that is used to run the service later!)
run pg_ctlr register to create the Windows service
If any of those steps fails you'll see a proper error message which is not always the case with the installer.
Anti-virus is a well known issue:
http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Running_&_Installing_PostgreSQL_On_Native_Windows#Antivirus_software
PostgreSQL connection problems
(answer is from one the core developers)
Postgresql 8.4 and BitDefender 11
With earlier versions of PostgreSQL, I found I had to delete the user "postgres" before reinstalling would work. Not sure what versions had that problem, though.
