The Linux installer for Dymola is available upon request from the Dymola reseller.
The installer comes as a .zip
file containing a couple of .rpm
packages.
For Ubuntu, these need to be converted to .deb
packages using alien
.
After conversion, they can be installed using dpkg
.
Here are the steps required on Xubuntu 16.04.
- Install a couple of packages that will be required later on
sudo apt-get install zip unzip
sudo apt-get install alien rpm lsb
- Install some packages that Dymola will need
sudo apt-get install libjpeg62 libqt5x11extras5 libqt5script5
sudo apt-get install libc6-dev-i386 g++-multilib
- Copy the installer
.zip
file to e.g. Downloads or some temporary directory - unzip it and
cd
to thelinux_x86_64
directory - run
sudo alien --scripts --keep-version --verbose dymola-2018.1-1.x86_64.rpm
or similar and wait
(Note: in the Dymola manual, the--scripts
is missing). - run
sudo dpkg -i dymola_2018.1-1_amd64.deb
or similar to install the resulting.deb
file - after installation, entering
dymola
in a terminal should open Dymola (in demo mode) - to configure the Dymola license, run
sudo dymola
, go to Help→License→Setup and enter the IP address and port number of the license server
