Difficulties with installation script for hybris 5.6.02 - sap-commerce-cloud

Question

The installation script reports a Build failure...
mlittle-mbook1:~ mlittle$ pwd
/Users/mlittle
mlittle-mbook1:~ mlittle$ cd hybris/bin/platform
mlittle-mbook1:platform mlittle$ ls -a

[echo] /Users/mlittle/hybris/bin/platform/tomcat/bin
[echo] /Users/mlittle/hybris/bin/platform/ext/core/web/webroot/WEB-INF/external-dependencies.xml was not found!
BUILD FAILED
It is looking for the path, and the file at that path..
Users/mlittle/hybris/bin/platform/ext/core/web/webroot/WEB-INF/external-dependencies.xml
When one looks in the path, I could not find Users/mlittle/hybris/bin/platform/ext/core/web/??
Any suggestions?
Best Regards.

Step:
Procedure:
MJL comment…
1:Go to the Download page and download the packages you want to install.
:Done
2.:Create the directory where you will extract the ZIP archives. This directory must meet the following conditions:
It must be close to the system root directory (for example C:\hybris. You may download the files directly to the root directory, because the ZIP files already contain directory hybris). Microsoft Windows requires the directory paths to be shorter than 255 characters. Any part of a directory path exceeding this limitation is truncated. The hybris Commerce Suite modules installation creates several sub-directories, therefore use short directory paths.
Do not use directory paths containing spaces (such as C:\hybris Platform). Building the hybris Commerce Suite fails if the directory path contains spaces
:I have created a directory:
/00hybris/
3.:Extract the ZIP archives into the created directory. After the installation has been completed, the chosen directory should contain the structure similar to the example below:And unzipped the downloand file…
hybris-commerce-suite-5.6.0.2.zip into that path to get...
README
build-tools
hybris
hybris-Mobile-Apps-SDK
hybris-ems
hybris-oms
hybris-sbg
installer
licenses
And in the 00hybris/hybris path
bin
But Sebastian, I cannot find the 00hybris/hybris/config path after unzipping the download file…
4.:Set Up Apache Ant:
To set up Apache Ant, perform the following steps:
1. Open a command prompt in Microsoft Windows (shell in Unix family systems).
2. Navigate to the ${HYBRIS_BIN_DIR}/platform directory, for example:C:\hybris\bin\platform.
3. On Microsoft Windows systems, run the setantenv.bat file by entering setantenv.bat. Do not close the command window.
4. On Unix-based systems (like Mac OS X or Linux), run setantenv.sh by entering . ./setantenv.sh. Do not close the command window.
5. C:\hybris\bin\platform>setantenv.bat
6. Setting ant home to: C:\hybris-5.0\hybris\bin\platform\apache-ant-1.8.2
7. Apache Ant(TM) version 1.8.2 compiled on March 26 2013
:With this..
a. created a new shell session
b. Navigated to 00hybris/hybris/bin/platform…
mlittle-mbook1:hybris mlittle$ cd bin/platform
mlittle-mbook1:platform mlittle$ pwd.
-bash: pwd.: command not found
mlittle-mbook1:platform mlittle$ pwd
/Users/mlittle/00hybris/hybris/bin/platform
c. From /Users/mlittle/00hybris/hybris/bin/platform
, I ran, mlittle-mbook1:platform mlittle$ . ./setantenv.sh
with the result…
mlittle-mbook1:platform mlittle$ . ./setantenv.sh
mlittle-mbook1:platform mlittle$
It appeared to run, but it gave back no response: why?
5:Perform Build Procedure for hybris Commerce Suite
Go to the Windows command prompt (shell in Unix family systems), navigate to the ${HYBRIS_BIN_DIR}/platform directory and type ant clean all.:See response below…
mlittle-mbook1:platform mlittle$ ant clean all

Checking what this has done…
a. it has created a directory structure under 00hybris/hybris:
bin
config
data
log
path.txt
path2.txt
roles
temp
And opening the 00Hybris/hybris/config/localextensions.xml file..
<path dir="${HYBRIS_BIN_DIR}" />

It does not seem to have populated the variable with the value for ${HYBRIS_BIN_DIR}... 00hybris/hybris/bin??

OK... investigated...
The problem is because there is an incompatibility between the version hybris was compiled and what is on my machine...

Answer 1

I think the root cause of the problem might be the wrong java version:
java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: de/hybris/ant/taskdefs/DbDriverValidator : Unsupported major.minor version 52.0
indicates a java version conflict.
Hybris 5.6 should work with java, you can check at https://wiki.hybris.com/display/release5/System+Requirements+-+Release+5.6
Do you maybe have java 6 installed?
You can see via
java -version
To be sure you should use java 8 as per https://wiki.hybris.com/display/general/Third-Party+Compatibility+-+Release+5.6
(btw, you can also signup for the https://experts.hybris.com/ forum to get more in-depth hybris answers)

Answer 2

Hybris 5.6+ requires Java 8, update your environment variables to point Java 1.8
