Download the program and read the installation instructions. – Iain♦ Nov 24 '10 at 8:04

java -jar <filename>.jar will get you somewhere, if you have java installed. – Sirex Nov 24 '10 at 8:17
Osama - I'm glad you're here in this community, willing to ask questions and contribute to the site. However, it seems like you've got a lot of very basic questions about system administration. You should probably seek some training - IBM has a lot of good AIX trainining, there are a lot of books on generic UNIX administration as well. And the majority of anything you learn for Linux will apply to most UNIX systems as well. – mfinni Nov 24 '10 at 13:47

  1. Check to see if you have java installed

    java -version

  2. If so, proceed to 3, if not, install Java

  3. move the jar to an appropriate directory, maybe a lib directory

  4. create a shell script in a bin directory on your path, i.e. /usr/local/bin/

#!/bin/sh
java -jar /<yourpath/lib/my.jar

please ... tell me if the following step correct or not :- To install .jar file from website to UNIX server :- 1. Download .jar file from site 2. Upload it to server by FileZilla to Unix in /lib 3. Execute command :- Java –jar /your_path/lib/my.jar – Mohammad AL-Rawabdeh Nov 25 '10 at 7:24
I would probably put the .jar in /usr/local/lib – kzh Nov 25 '10 at 13:13
