How to run Astah on Linux


RedHat (CentOS, Fedora, RedHat)

Java Download & Install

Install Java (It must be a supported version of JDK – Professional & UML, SysML, and GSN).

  • If you are using version 8.0 or earlier: Oracja Java

Using RPM Package

1. Download the Astah installer in RPM Package and save it in the preferred directory (e.g. /tmp)

2. Become a root user and move to the directory where the installer is stored

3. Run this command to install (e.g. Astah Professional version 8.2)

1
#rpm -ivh --nosignature astah-professional-8.2.0.b743f7-0.noarch.rpm

4. Run Astah by typing:

1
$astah-pro   (UML: astah-uml / SysML: astah-sysml / GSN: astah-gsn)

If you are using Gnome desktop, run Astah from [Application] – [Accessories].

Debian (Ubuntu, Debian GNU/Linux)

Java Download & Install

Install Java (It must be a supported version of JDK – Professional & UML, SysML, and GSN).

  • If you are using version 8.2: AdoptOpenJDK 8u222-b10
  • If you are using version 8.0 or earlier: Oracja Java

1. Check the Linux architecture (32bit, 64bit) by using the following

1
$ file /sbin/init

2. Download the supported version of JDK.

3. Decompress the binary file in your preferred directory.

1
2
$ tar -xvf jdk-8u45-linux-i586.tar.gz (32bit)
$ tar -xvf jdk-8u45-linux-x64.tar.gz (64bit)

4. A new directory must be created(.jdk1.8.0_45).
Move the JDK8 directory to /usr/lib. (In this example we are using jdk1.8.0.45)

1
$ sudo mv ./jdk1.8.0_45 /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.8.0

5. Use the commands below:

1
2
3
$ sudo update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/java" "java" "/usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.8.0/bin/java" 1
$ sudo update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/javac" "javac" "/usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.8.0/bin/javac" 1
$ sudo update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/javaws" "javaws" "/usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.8.0/bin/javaws" 1

6. Use the next command:

1
$ sudo update-alternatives --config java

7. If a path appears as below, specify the path number of JDK8 at “Please enter to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number.” (We are using 3 in this example.)

1
$ sudo update-alternatives --config java

8. There are 3 choices for alternative java (providing /usr/bin/java).

Selection Path Priority Status
--------------------
* 0 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java 1061 auto mode
1 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java 1061 manual mode
2 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java 63 manual mode
3 /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.8.0/jre/bin/java 3 manual mode$ sudo update-alternatives --config java
 
Press enter to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number: 3
 
update-alternatives: using /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.8.0/jre/bin/java to provide /usr/bin/java (java) in manual mode.

9. Check the JDK version with the command below. (in the example it’s 1.8.0.45)

1
2
$ java -version
java version "1.8.0.45"

10. Use the following commands below again.

1
2
sudo update-alternatives --config javac
sudo update-alternatives --config javaws$ java -version

Configuration

If you already have Java other than AdoptOpenJDK or Oracle, switch the right one by running an alternatives command. (You need to be a root user to do so.)


Using Deb Package

1. Download the Astah installer in Deb Package and save it in the preferred directory (e.g. /tmp)

2. Move to the directory in which you download and then check the file size by using the stat command

3. Become a root user and to install (e.g. Astah Professional version 8.1)

1
#dpkg -i astah-professional_8.2.0.b743f7-0_all.deb

4. Run Astah by typing:

1
$astah-pro

(UML: astah-uml / SysML: astah-sysml / GSN: astah-gsn)
If you are using Gnome desktop, run Astah from [Application] – [Accessories].
