We have already seen how to install PeopleSoft on your laptop and set up an Oracle client in previous posts.
If you are a technical guy, you know that there’s no fun without PeopleTools. Right?
In this post I will show you how to get the final bit up and running so that you can fully utilise your local PeopleSoft installation.
All right, let’s get started.
- Navigate to \\192.168.56.101 (This is the same IP that you used to access the PIA in the previous post step 11. It may be different for you.)
- Open the folder client-854/Disk1
You will find a setup batch file here. - Right-click on this file and Run as Administrator.
This will launch the installation wizard. - Click next to proceed.

Click Next. - This page shows the environment management details.

Awesome blog post keep on posting more about peoplesoft.
Hi Rakesh, thanks for your how to’s on PeopleSoft. I am a middleware engineer but have never had to support a PSFT environment. I’d like to know if there is any documentation, web articles, or your advice on editing configuration files instead of using the PSFT Tools? For example, is there a server.xml type of file that is used to define db connection parameters, pool, etc… ?
Thanks
