Cannot install on Debian #1

Closed shaneken closed 4 years ago

Hi, I wanted to try using it on my spare computer with Debian 9 and had an issue. When I double clicked the downloaded file plc-logic-prover-linux-0.1.8.AppImage it opens "Open With" dialog. How can I install it?

Thanks, Shane

@shaneken working on Linux a bit tricky. AppImage files are not required to be installed. It is a self containing package. When you download the app it is not executable. Make it executable by following the next steps: Right click on downloaded file > Properties > Permission tab > Check "Allow executing file as program". Now it is executable, but there is one more step.

Enable the user namespaces feature. It is required for this type of software packages. In terminal run: sudo sysctl kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone=1

Also you can rename and move the file where you want. It will still open your current project.
