How do I install the Linux Version?

The Linux installation is stored in a BIN file (*.bin).

At first you have to open a terminal/bash:

1. Change the permission of the file you downloaded to be executable. Type the following command:

chmod +x application.bin

2. Start the installation process or run .bin file.Type the following command:

./application.bin

Trouble Shooting:

If the Installer is still not starting, please try any of the following:

(1) Make sure you have user permission to execute the BIN file (*.bin).  You may need to verify this with your company admin.

(2) Change file properties to allow execute.  Sometimes a BIN file may not have execute properties when it is downloaded onto your system.  One suggestion is to Right-Click over the file (using a file browser) and select "Properties...".   Then change access/permission to allow "Write" and "Execute".  Once this is completed, try executing the BIN file in the terminal/bash window (see above).

(3) Check if the BIN file (*.bin) itself can execute on your OS.

Enter: file ./application.bin

Now you should see a sentence including the word “executable” and not “non-executable, not executable,… or something completely different)

If you do not see “executable,…)” your system probably does not have the correct Java runtime previously installed.

IMPORTANT - If you are still not able to run the BIN file (*.bin), please contact our sales team sales@numericalinnovations.com and they will be happy to provide you a compress file (.tar.gz), that contains all required files.
