Installation

• Extract the downloaded archive jade_client_linux.x.x.x.tar.gz respective jade_client_windows.x.x.x.zip  to an arbitrary directory, e.g. /tmp/ or C:\Temp\ and run the installer dialog for JADE YADE Client using

  /tmp/jade_client.x.x.x/setup.sh

  Code Block
  language bash title Windows command to open the installer GUI with root permissions
  C:\Temp\jade_client.x.x.x\setup.cmd

• On Linux ...
  
  • The setup.sh calls sudo  to get root permissions. It is strongly recommended that you not logged in as root.
  • root permissions are not mandatory.

  • If you want to start the installer without root permissions then you can call it with the -u option.

    /tmp/jade_client.x.x.x/setup.sh -u

• On Windows the option -u fro an unprivileged installation is not available. The installer asks always for elevated administrator permissions.
• Now the installer opens a GUI to enter the installation path.

...

• You can start the installer without GUI, e.g. if no X-Server is installed on Linux.

• In this case you have to edit the file jade_client_install.xml to configure the installation path in Line 22.
