Tarball Download Page

If you experience problems with the new OT Installer, the tarball version remains available and the instructions for installing this have not changed. However, the tarball version now comes with its own version of Java so it is not necessary to have a copy of Java 11 on your computer. Alternatively, if you wish to use a pre-installed version of Java 11, a fourth version of the tarball installation is available that does not come with its own Java distribution. This should work on any OS.

The installation instructions for the tarball version are:

1. Download the tarball in your preferred format:

• OT tarball for MacOS with a x64-based JRE included
• OT tarball for Linux with a x64-based JRE included
• OT tarball for Windows with a x64-based JRE included
• OT tarball with no JRE included

2. Unpack the tarball (it will unpack into its own directory)

3. Run post-installation setup

• Linux or Mac OS:

  cd ALMAOT-C8-2021/setup
  ./Setup-Linux.sh
  cd ..

• MS Windows

-> Go to the ALMAOT-C8-2021/setup directory

-> Double click "Setup-Windows" (may read "Setup-Windows.cmd")

4. Start up the OT

• Mac OS:

./ALMA-OT.app or double-click in a Finder window

• Linux:

./ALMA-OT.sh or double-click in a window manager if this is configured to run executable files from the terminal

• MS Windows

Double-click "ALMA-OT" (might read "ALMA-OT.cmd")
