Installing TOS/TIS on a recent version of linux (Ubuntu9.10, Open Suse 11.2, ...)

This tutorial will show you how to let TOS/TIS operate on Ubuntu9.10 32bit or 64 bit. If you are reading this page, you probably have encountered issues when Installing TOS/TIS on Ubuntu9.1.0, as described in this forum topic 8712.
Let us show you a workaround to let it work smoothly:

• Download Talend Open Studio from ourwebsite and install it, reference Installation Guide.

• Download xulrunner 1.9.0.15 from http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/xulrunner/releases/1.9.0.15/runtimes/xulrunner-1.9.0.15.en-US.linux-i686.tar.bz2
• Extract this file into /usr/local/lib using the following commands (let's assume we are logging in as a common user):

                         cd /usr/local/lib
                         sudo tar jxf /the file direcotry/xulrunner-1.9.0.15.en-US.linux-i686.tar.bz2

• Open TalendOpenStudio-linux-gtk-x86.ini and add the last line as below:

          
                  -vmargs
                  -Xms40m
                  -Xmx500m
                  -XX:MaxPermSize=256m
                  -Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.XULRunnerPath=/usr/local/lib/xulrunner

• Install the dependency tools and Sun jdk if not yet installed, reference https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Developer_Guide/Build_Instructions/Linux_Prerequisites.
• Download the source code of xulrunner 1.9.0.15 from http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/xulrunner/releases/1.9.0.15/source/ and install it into /usr/local/lib.
• Open TalendOpenStudio-linux-gtk-x86.ini and add the last line as below:

          
                  -vmargs
                  -Xms40m
                  -Xmx500m
                  -XX:MaxPermSize=256m
                  -Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.XULRunnerPath=/usr/local/lib/xulrunner

• In the installation directory, create a script to start up TOS, for example: start.sh

   #!/bin/sh
     export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1
     /TOS installation directory/TalendOpenStudio-linux-gtk-x86_64

  ./start.sh
