Title: Howto install on linux? Post by: david on July 02, 2006, 06:34:53 AM Hi all,
we get some errors when trying to install collanos on linux. Is there a README or step-by-step guide with some guidelines for linux? Title: Re: Howto install on linux? Post by: Franco Dal Molin on July 03, 2006, 02:20:54 AM Hi David. Thanks for your feedback! Sorry to hear this. Please use the following procedure when installing on Linux:
1. Make sure you are working as the user that will also work with Collanos – in this example called “user1” 2. Download Linux installation program “Workplace_linux_with_jre_1_0.sh” into the download directory of user1 – for example /home/user1/downloads 3. Open Console and in the download directory execute the command: chmod 775 Workplace_linux_with_jre_1_0.sh 4. Then in the same directory run the installation program: ./ Workplace_linux_with_jre_1_0.sh 5. The installation program will start and - ask for the closing of all other apps, - the acceptance of the licence agreement - and then for the Destination Directory for Collanos Workplace to install. Here it is important not to take the proposed /opt directory but to enter a directory where the user (user1 in this example has write permission): /home/user1/Collanos (to chose this option just select /home/user1 – Collanos will be added). - then the install asks for the Directory for Symlinks and proposes /usr/local/bin. You can take this proposed selection. 6. After the installation then has taken place you get a confirmation. Chose Finish to close the installation program. 7. In the console go to your /home/user1/Collanos directory and start ./Workplace. Please let us know if this helps. Thanks. BTW, we plan to release a new "Beta 2" of the application very soon (estimated for approx. July 17, 2006). We are working on making both the Linux and Mac installation procedures more end-user friendly. Best regards, Franco Collanos Software Title: Re: Howto install on linux?

Although it was an old topic; it seemed to work on Mandrake 9.2. Also old, I believe... The opening screen appeared following the commands from this topic, but after a while was lost. Leaving me with this error report in the console: bash-2.05b$ cd /home/gerard/Collanos bash-2.05b$ ./Workplace Database connection successully shutdown. P2P Transport Layer. (C) Collanos Software AG.

Do you have some more commands for fixing this, perhaps? Title: Re: Howto install on linux? Post by: mhe on April 13, 2007, 12:43:55 AM It look likes that you receive not an adaquate name for your computer.
Which network setting do you have? It's necessary that you have a valid network name (host name) for you computer and not the generic one. Regards Martin Title: Re: Howto install on linux? Post by: apestaartjes697 on April 13, 2007, 06:56:32 AM Hello Martin,
The name dhcppc0 was recently given when I installed an adsl-modem. In fact my computer has or had another name 'linuxbak'. So I will try to see if your clue helps me. Of course I will let you know wether I succeded. Many thanks you for your tip; unfortunately I'm right now on the point of leaving for a weekend. Gerard |
