  • A complete Aptana install on Ubuntu 
      
     Referenced from http://www.odrakir.com/blog/?p=382 
      
     1) Download the install file 
      
     2) Open a terminal window 
      
     3) Aptana has dependencies so you’ll need to install Mozilla and libswt3.1 
     3a) sudo apt-get install mozilla[/list] 
     3b) sudo aptitude install libswt3.1-gtk-java 
      
     4) Chmod the install file to make it executable - chmod +x Aptana_IDE_Setup.bin 
      
     5) Excecute the file - ./Aptana_IDE_Setup.bin 
      
     6) Now, the installation should be easy, just read and answer the wizard’s questions until it’s finished 
      
     7) Aptana needs a environment variable set for mozilla so we’ll have to code ourselfs a little script in order to set the variable every time we need to run Aptana and not just once inside the terminal window. 
      
     

    Code:

    touch aptana         sudo gedit aptana            Now copy this            #/usr/bin         export MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=/usr/lib/mozilla         ~/Aptana/aptana

     
      
      and save the file. 
      
     8) Chmodit so it can be executed. - chmod 755 aptana 
      
     9) Now you can copy it to /bin - sudo cp aptana /bin/
  • 2) When launching the installer, the following errors appear: 
      
     grep: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory /tmp/install.dir.23446/Linux/resource/jre/bin/java: error while loading shared libraries: libpthread.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory  
      
     Solution: 
      
     This is suggested for Fedora Core 5 users and possibly SUSE linux users as well. Run the following commands on the installer: 
      
     

    Code:

    cp Aptana_IDE_Setup.bin Aptana_IDE_Setup.bin.bak   cat Aptana_IDE_Setup.bin.bak | \   sed "s/export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL/#xport LD_ASSUME_KERNEL/" > \   Aptana_IDE_Setup.bin

     
      
     this may also need to be run on the uninstaller: 
      
     

    Code:

    cp Aptana_Uninstaller Aptana_Uninstaller.bak   cat Aptana_Uninstaller.bak | \   sed "s/export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL/#xport LD_ASSUME_KERNEL/" > \   Aptana_Uninstaller

     
      
     And then continue with the installation.
