Installing FLEXID9 Drivers on Linux
Use the following procedure to install the latest driver for a FLEXID9 dongle on Linux. The same command is used to install the driver on RHEL (32-bit or 64-bit), SLES (32-bit or 64-bit), or Ubuntu (64-bit).
To install the FLEXID9 driver
| 1. | Locate the installation archive file aksusbd-redhat-suse-8.43.tar.gz, aksusbd-redhat-suse-10.11.tar.gz, or aksusbd-ubuntu-10.11.tar.gz within your FlexNet Publisher Licensing Toolkit; or download the installation archive file from a designated FlexNet Publisher download site. (For example, publishers download from the Revenera Product and License Center: https://revenera.flexnetoperations.com. End users should contact Revenera for the appropriate download site.) |
| 2. | Extract aksusbd-redhat-suse-8.43.tar.gz, aksusbd-redhat-suse-10.11.tar.gz, or aksusbd-ubuntu-10.11.tar.gz. |
| 3. | At a command prompt from the directory where the dongle-driver rpm file resides, enter the following: |
| • | For a 32-bit driver (RHEL or SLES): |
rpm –i aksusbd-8.43-1.i386.rpm
| • | For a 64-bit driver (RHEL or SLES): |
rpm -i aksusbd-10.11-1.x86_64.rpm
| • | For a 64-bit driver (Ubuntu) |
dpkg -i aksusbd_10.11-1_amd64.deb
(You require root privileges.)
| 4. | Do one of the following: |
| • | Define the FlexNet environment variable FLEXID_LIBRARY_PATH to point to the location of the dongle shared object, libhasp_linux_i686.so or libhasp_linux_x86_64.so (depending on your architecture). |
| • | Define the system environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to the location of the dongle shared object, libhasp_linux_i686.so or libhasp_linux_x86_64.so (depending on your architecture). |
