  • 1.  Need help to Install IBM Business Automation Manager Open Editions (BAM OE) on Windows 11 laptop

    Posted Thu July 04, 2024 12:32 PM

    Hello everyone,

    I'm looking for a reliable and free source to download IBM Business Automation Manager Open Editions (BAM OE) software to run locally on my windows 11 laptop. My goal is to use this software to create and experiment with complex workflows for learning purposes. I have played with the product on techzone environment a little bit. I have a IBM partner access if that helps.  

    It's crucial that the download link includes step-by-step installation instructions, as I've found the available resources confusing so far. I've already explored various avenues without success.

    If anyone can point me in the right direction or share a trusted source where I can download this software along with clear installation instructions, I would greatly appreciate it!

    Thank you in advance for your assistance.

    Best regards,
    Naresh

    Hi, I wrote this article showing options for deploying BAMOE with Podman. I believe he can help you.

    Hi Raul First of all thanks for the response. It means a lot.  I was able to complete all steps till adding and removing dependences in pom.xml 

    on executing - mvn clean package it complained about below and i removed these dependences from pom.xml to go to the next step. 

    [ERROR]     'dependencies.dependency.version' for io.quarkus:quarkus-smallrye-openapi:jar is missing. @ line 49, column 17 

    [ERROR]     'dependencies.dependency.version' for io.quarkus:quarkus-smallrye-health:jar is missing. @ line 53, column 17 

    [ERROR]     'dependencies.dependency.version' for io.quarkus:quarkus-resteasy-reactive-jackson:jar is missing. @ line 57, column 17 

    [ERROR]     'dependencies.dependency.version' for io.quarkus:quarkus-arc:jar is missing. @ line 65, column 17 

    [ERROR]     'dependencies.dependency.version' for io.quarkus:quarkus-resteasy-reactive:jar is missing. @ line 69, column 17 

    [ERROR]     'dependencies.dependency.version' for io.quarkus:quarkus-junit5:jar is missing. @ line 73, column 17 

    [ERROR]     'dependencies.dependency.version' for io.rest-assured:rest-assured:jar is missing. @ line 78, column 17 

    after executing the mvn clean package command again above errors are gone but I have below errors now 

    I am using java 22 and maven 3.8.8 

    I will keep troubleshooting it but if you or anybody in the community have any direction in the meantime, please help me out. I will appreciate that very much.

    Hi Naresh, 

    How are you? Are you following all the instructions provided by Raul in his post? When I installed it, I used Java 17. Based on your question, I noticed that you are using Java 22. On which part of his instructions are you stuck?

    Hope you have a nice day!

    Hi,

    I was able to follow the steps until the part to deploy BPMN and connect via Kubernetes.

    Some of the pods could not start up and I think the main reason is because of this particular pod - ingress-nginx-admission-create having issue :

    Any idea on how could I resolve this ?

    Thank you for assistance!

    I am currently working through building a Virtual Machine in TechZone for 9.1 - for Windows it was a lot more than I thought because containers in Windows behave very differently from Mac and Linux.

    There are a few things you might need to adjust first before a deeper dive:

    • Change the JDK to Java 17 - Java 22 is not certified/nor tested with BAMOE 9.1 so some behavior could be from the packages associated with this. I haven't dug too far into your logs, but missing classes of base utilities would lead me to believe that's the case.
    • Maven I believe needs to now be in the 3.9s as there was an addition for Java 17 that I can't find that I think for it to work with building a container was required.

    For Maven issues - what repositories are you connected to? I updated this Docker Compose to have Canvas, Extended Services, the CORS proxy and now the Maven repository as well from the product. That same repository with the docker compose has an example settings.xml that should connect to the BAMOE maven repository deployment.
