Hi Guys!

Some good news for all of you doing the Technical Business Analyst Academy!

We've added a new script to your VDIs to simplify the training-tutorial project setup. This script combines all the necessary setup commands into a single script!

If you've already set up the training-tutorial project, there's no need to do it again!

Also, you will still be able to setup the project manually by following BA Module 1.2: Smoke Test (after completing Module 1.1: Development Tools).

The new script is just an additional method for setting up the training-tutorial project for the Scenario-based Tasks.

The rest of this post will explain how to get the new script on your VDI, and how to use it to set up the training-tutorial project.

How to get the updated setup scripts

To add the new script to your VDI, you will need to unzip the setup scripts again.

To do this run the following commands in order:

cd ~

cp /opt/training/2.1.1/resources/analyst/setup_scripts.zip ~

unzip setup_scripts.zip

cd ~/setup-scripts-analyst

chmod +x *.sh

If you are prompted with this message:

Enter A (or y) to overwrite the existing setup scripts folder with the new folder.

Things to Check:

Make sure you have the correct setup scripts:

• Open the /setup-scripts-analyst folder.
• Check that the file setup_training_tutorial.sh is there.

If the file is missing, rerun the setup scripts above.

Make sure you have the training-tutorial project

• Check you have the /training-tutorial folder in the home directory of your VDI.

If you do not have the training-tutorial project run the following commands:

cd ~/setup-scripts-analyst
./run_setup.sh

Running the training-tutorial setup script

Now that you have the new setup script, you can use it to set up the training-tutorial project!

To run the script run the following commands in order:

Step 1: Navigate to the /setup-scripts-analyst folder using:

cd ~/setup-scripts-analyst

Step 2: Run the training-tutorial setup script using:

./setup_training_tutorial.sh

This script may take up to an hour to fully execute all the commands.

Important Note: Do not leave the VDI idle for too long as it will disconnect from inactivity! If this happens, you will need to rerun the script

If all the commands execute successfully, you will see this final message in the terminal:

Now you should be able to run the Quantexa UI on the training-tutorial project using the run-all script!

If you encounter any issues while running this script or have any questions, please let us know in the comments of this post!

We hope this helps!

Many thanks,

The Academy Team
