These steps only need to be followed if there is an issue with the installer that is included in the download. Please see QIE Install Guide for the procedures to use the 1 step installer.

*** For Mac OS 10.15 Catalina and newer (Permissions in the downloaded zipped folder are no longer executable)
 1. Extract QIE{version}_{build}_war.zip in its current directory (Most likely the Downloads directory)
 2. Allow the install command to run and then execute the install script.
 2a. Open Terminal (<cmd><space> type 'Terminal')
 2b. In the terminal, change directories to the current mac_install directory:

    cd ~/Downloads/QIEStandardLinuxInstaller/mac_install/
    OR
    cd ~/Downloads/QIEEnterpriseLinuxInstaller/mac_install/

 2c. Change permissions to allow the uninstall script to execute by pasting the following and pressing <Enter>:

    sudo chmod 744 uninstall_mac_daemon.sh

 3. The terminal will prompt for your password to grant permission.
 4. In the same terminal, change the permissions to allow the install script to execute by pasting the following and pressing <Enter>:

     sudo chmod 744 install_mac_daemon.command
     sudo ./install_mac_daemon.command

*** For Mac OS 10.14 Mojave and older
 1. Extract QIE{version}_{build}_war.zip in its current directory (Most likely the Downloads directory)
 2. In Finder, navigate to the mac_install inside the extracted directory
 3. <ctrl><click> the install_mac_daemon.command file
 4. Select Open from the menu
 5. A dialog will inform you that this came from Qvera.com. Click Open
 6. A terminal will open as the script begins. Enter your password, and the install will complete.

The QIE_HOME directory will be in the /Users/Shared/Qvera/qie/

To Start and Stop QIE from command prompt on Mac OS:
1. To start: 'startQie'
2. To stop: 'stopQie'

Browse to http://localhost:80 to login to QIE.

To uninstall, use '/Users/Shared/Qvera/qie/mac_install/uninstall_mac_daemon.sh'
