    Linux

    Standard installation

    Note: You must be aware that the installation of the software is a tacit acceptance of our Terms and Conditions and End-User License Agreement. 

     

    The application is shipped as a .zip file.  To install, you simply unzip the file in the folder of your choice, then start the executable.  


    The application can be run from the terminal or from a script by terminal:
    /path/to/unzipped/folder/Hackolade
     

    Unfortunately, the issue with running executable file from the file manager still is not resolved:
    https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/15406


    Also, there is a way to create a desktop file to launch the application:
    https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55060402/electron-executable-not-recognized-by-nautilus

    Create a file called myapp.desktop with the following contents.

    [Desktop Entry]
    Name=My Application
    Exec=/path/to/binary
    Terminal=false
    Type=Application
    StartupNotify=true
    Encoding=UTF-8

    Then, mark the desktop file executable by issuing chmod +x myapp.desktop. Double clicking the file should launch the application as expected.

     

    CentOS 7 with no GUI

    For CentOS 7 if GUI was not selected during installation, a complex procedure is documented below:

    Pre-requisites

    sudo yum update

    sudo yum install gcc gcc-c++ kernel-devel make bzip2 clang dbus-devel gtk3-devel \ 

                       libgnome-keyring-devel xorg-x11-server-utils libcap-devel \

                       cups-devel libXtst-devel alsa-lib-devel libXrandr-devel \

                       nss-devel libsecret-devel libnotify-devel wget unzip

     

    Copy and replace file in the directory (link):

    /lib64/libstdc++.so.6

    sudo yum groupinstall “GNOME Desktop”

    echo "exec gnome-session" >> ~/.xinitrc

     

    Starting GNOME:

    startx

     

    Notice: you should start GNOME by a non-root user

    Installation

    wget “https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/hackolade/current/Hackolade-linux-x64.zip*” -O hackolade.zip*

    unzip hackolade.zip

    rm hackolade.zip

     

    cd Hackolade-linux-x64 

    chown root:root chrome-sandbox

    chmod 4755 chrome-sandbox

     

    Notice:

    File “chrome-sandbox” must be owned by root user and have permissions 4755.

     

    The application must be executed by a non-root user.

    Start application

    Execute in the terminal:

    ./Hackolade

    Remote connection

    In case of remote connection, you need VNC server:

    Compiling GCC

    If copying /lib64/libstdc++.so.6 didn’t help and you faced troubles with GLIBCXX you have to compile a newer version of GCC (it takes a while):

     

    wget ftp://ftp.lip6.fr/pub/gcc/releases/gcc-7.5.0/gcc-7.5.0.tar.gz

     

    tar xzf gcc-7.5.0.tar.gz

    cd gcc-7.5.0

    ./contrib/download_prerequisites

    cd ..

    mkdir objdir

    cd objdir

    $PWD/../gcc-7.5.0/configure --prefix=$HOME/GCC-7.5.0 --enable-languages=c,c++,fortran,go --disable-multilib

    make

    make install

     

    After compiling create a symlink to the file libstdc++.so.6.0.24:

     

    sudo ln -s $HOME/GCC-7.5.0/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.24 /lib64/libstdc++.so.6
