Evaluation Of InstallAnywhere 2020

Jump to solution

Hi,

As I do not have any valid support contract, I'll post my finding there.

I just downloaded InstallAnywhere 2020 for evaluation, but my built linux installer cannot be launched:

 

install.bin: 3579: //Fix: not found
install.bin: 3580: //: Permission denied

Launching installer...

JRE libraries are missing or not compatible....
Exiting....

 

By checking the generated installer, some comment lines are starting with / instead of # ... fail

# Checking Java Version and adding Java-9 module illegal access switch only in case of Java-9 and above.
# Chances are this options may be removed in the next major release.

debugOut "Using VM version -> $usingVmVersion"
extractVMVer=`echo $usingVmVersion | cut -c1-2`
if [ "$extractVMVer" != "1." ] ; then
debugOut "Java 9 or higher version detected. Adding module access switch."

isJava9AndAbove="TRUE"
//Fix for WO IA-20048 Adding JVM param to disable default uiScaling
// of Java 9 and above
java9Options="--add-opens java.base/jdk.internal.loader=ALL-UNNAMED -Dsun.java2d.uiScale.enabled=false "
options="$java9Options $options"
fi

 

I then tried altering the file (replacing / with #), but it is then seen as corrupted...

Let's hope there will be fix soon ...

Just to clarify, the incorrect comments are unrelated to the crash ... I mistakenly selected an incorrect java version.

So error seen with "//" has no other effect than printing errors in console.

Those random two "errors" are not limited to IA2020. We are seeing the same problem with IA2018SP1, on Linux only.

line 3569: //Fix: No such file or directory
line 3570: //UI: No such file or directory

 

Similarly, this doesn't actually stop the install from proceeding but it is cause for alarm. Any idea why this is?

Thanks, I activated the evaluation support and reported it as Case Number 01947723

I am seeing the same issue after applying the 2018 Hot Fix

https://community.flexera.com/t5/InstallAnywhere-Knowledge-Base/InstallAnywhere-Hotfix-for-InstallAnywhere-2018-SP1/ta-p/98469

 

How can I reference Case Number 01947723 which has been open according to this message thread?

 

Should I open a new case for the 2018 product?
