Studio Installation Notes for Linux

This section provides additional information for running Studio under Linux.

Launching Studio

To start Studio from the command line execute the file .../albpm6.0/studio/eclipse/eclipse.

Additional Installation Steps

Depending on your Linux Distribution and version, you might need to complete the following additional steps to have a fully functional installation of ALBPM Studio:
  • You need to have Mozilla Firefox (version 1.5 or above) installed in your system. You must set the environment variable MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME to your Firefox installation directory. In addition, you may need to prepend this same directory to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable. Example, from a bash shell:
    export MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=/usr/lib/firefox export
            LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
  • ALBPM Studio may not display process Activity icons correctly. This is due to a bug in the SWT libraries (Eclipse bug: 150357). You can avoid this issue by editing the .../albpm6.0/studio/eclipse/eclipse.ini file, adding the following line at the end of the file:
    -Dfuego.ui.peer.swt.graphics.noAdvanced=true
