Strategy ONE

Linux Install Wizard - Choose Destination Location

Specify the locations where the Strategy One products and Strategy common files are to be installed:

  • Strategy Home Directory: Specify the location where the Strategy configuration files and application launchers are to be installed, according to the following guidelines:

    • The default location is /var/opt/MicroStrategy, or $HOME/MicroStrategy if you do not have write access to /var/opt/MicroStrategy.
    • Do not install the Strategy configuration files directly to your Linux Home Directory ($HOME). To ensure that the required permissions can be defined for the Strategy configuration files, you must install these files within a separate directory. For example, the default path of $HOME/MicroStrategy uses the MicroStrategy directory within $HOME to ensure permissions on these files are defined correctly.
    • The path specified for the home directory is referred to as HOME_PATH in this guide.
    • Do not change the names of folders within the HOME_PATH after installing Intelligence Server.
    • When including paths during a Strategy One installation, include absolute paths rather than relative paths.

  • Strategy Install Directory: Specify the location where the Strategy One products are to be installed, according to the following guidelines:

    • The default location is /opt/MicroStrategy, or $HOME/MicroStrategy/install if you do not have write access to /opt/MicroStrategy.
    • The path specified for the install directory is referred to as INSTALL_PATH in this guide.
    • Do not change the names of folders within the INSTALL_PATH after installing Intelligence Server.
    • When including paths during a Strategy One installation, include absolute paths rather than relative paths.

  • Strategy Log Directory: Specify the location where the Strategy application logs are to be created, according to the following guidelines:

    • The default location is /var/log/MicroStrategy, or $HOME/MicroStrategy/log if you do not have write access to /var/log/MicroStrategy.
    • The path specified for the log directory is referred to as LOG_PATH in this guide.
    • When including paths during a Strategy One installation, include absolute paths rather than relative paths.

    • The MSTRDebugInstall.log file will be located in the Strategy Log Directory for troubleshooting.
