Note:When you install InstallAnywhere on a Linux system, the installation attempts to create a symbolic link to the default Linux loader (/lib/ld-linux.so.2) if a link with the same name is not already present. The symbolic link is necessary for the host ID to be displayed on the Host ID dialog, and it is also necessary for successful node-locked licensing. The link is present on systems that are Linux Standard Base (LSB) 3 compliant, but it may not be present on systems that are not LSB compliant. For more information, see Knowledge Base article Q209204.

Installers can be built from any supported authoring platform for any other supported target platform or language. Localizations for 32 languages are included.
Note:InstallAnywhere installers no longer distrubute Java 8. InstallAnywhere 2024 supports only Java 11 and later versions. The JAR files in Java 8, usually present in the jre/lib/ and jre/lib/ext/ directories, are also not distributed with Java 11 and later versions, therefore these files will be unavailable.
