- After signing the agreement, you can choose between the following two options to obtain your permanent license:
- Bring you laptop with WiFi access to class / to our office after confirming an appointment with us - we will take it from there :)
- Download and install the TeamViewer tool, which will give us remote access to your computer. Confirm an online appointment with us and we can complete the registration procedure online.
Supplemental Installation Instructions for Ubuntu (9.04, 10.10 and 11.04)
Installation should be similar on other Linux systems.
- Use your package manager GUI or a terminal to install a Java VM and either version 1.8 of xulrunner (required for 9.04) or hal (required for 10.10 and 11.04) . The command line on a terminal to install both is
-
- "sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jre xulrunner" for Ubuntu 9.04
- "sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jre hal" for Ubuntu 10.10 and 11.04
- Download the current AnyLogic University version for i586 Linux to the folder where you want to install AnyLogic to, e.g. your home directory (a sub-folder "AnyLogic" will be create automatically.)
- Open a terminal window and enter the folder where you downloaded AnyLogic to.
- Start the installation with "sh <downloaded file>". At time of this writing, that would be "sh anylogic-university-6.6.0.linux.i586.tgz.bin".
- Read the license, close it by pressing "q" and accept it. The installation should finish and should create a file named AnyLogic.desktop on your desktop.
- The permissions on the AnyLogic.desktop may be be incorrect. If so, execute "chmod 755 ~/Desktop/AnyLogic.desktop" to set execution permissions for that shortcut file. On the desktop, the shortcut's name should now change to "AnyLogic" and a correct icon should appear. You can close the terminal now.
- Double-click on the desktop shortcut to start AnyLogic. Continue with the registration and licensing procedure as explained above.
