  • How to install a HYPERPLANNING Client on a Mac OS or Linux workstation (non-hosted mode)

Index Education applications are designed to be installed on workstations running Microsoft Windows. However, they can be installed (with the exception of the servers) on Mac OS or Linux workstations using software such as Wine or CrossOver. However, supervisors are strongly advised to connect from a workstation running Microsoft Windows.

Solution for Mac OS only

IFor users who don't want to install Wine on their own, Index Education offers a package including HYPERPLANNING + Wine. 

Prerequisites:
  • have a recent version of Mac OS (Mac OS 10.15 and later);
  • specify in System preferences > Security and confidentiality > Tab General: Authorize the applications downloaded from: " Anywhere ".

Solution for Mac OS and Linux

Prerequisites:
You have to choose:
  • the 32-bit version of the HYPERPLANNING application,
  • Wine version 6.0 or higher, preferably version 8.0 or higher.

Installing a HYPERPLANNING application directly with Wine (example: HYPERPLANNING Client)

The following commands must be entered in a terminal, remaining in the same session, otherwise the local variables defined with the "export" command will be lost.
  1. Installation of cabextract

    sudo apt install cabextract

  2. Verification of the Wine version
    wine --version This returns wine 8.0.2, for example.
  3. Create the Wine prefix to be used, that is, the folder containing the C drive as seen by Wine applications.
    export WINEARCH=win32
    export WINEPREFIX=~/ WineHYPERPLANNING. The folder must not exist; it will be created by the command wineboot.
    wine wineboot
    cd $WINEPREFIX
  4. Use WineTricks to install MsXML 6, Windows Codecs and basic fonts in the new prefix, and change prefix version for Windows 10
    wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Winetricks/winetricks/master/src/winetricks
    sh winetricks msxml6
    sh winetricks windowscodecs
    sh winetricks corefonts
    sh winetricks win10
  5. Installation of Client HYPERPLANNING
    wine Install_xxx_win32.exe (Spécifiez le chemin au besoin.)
  6. Launching the Client HYPERPLANNING
    export WINEARCH=win32
    export WINEPREFIX=~/ WineHYPERPLANNING
    WINEDEBUG=-nls wine $WINEPREFIX/drive_c/Program\ Files/Index\ Education/ .../Client\ HYPERPLANNING.exe

Installing a HYPERPLANNING application with CrossOver (example with the HYPERPLANNING Client)

  1. Launch CrossOver.
  2. From the menu Bottle/New bottle, create a Windows 10 32-bit type bottle.
  3. In the left-hand bar, select the new bottle, then right-click on the button Install an application in the bottle.

  4. In the search bar, type MSXML, then choose the application Microsoft XML Parser (MSXML) 6.0 SP2 and install it.

  5. After installation, re-select the new bottle in the left-hand bar and right-click on the button Install an application in the bottle.

  6. Choose Install an unlisted application.

  7. Click on the first button Edit to select the HYPERPLANNING Client installer, then on Install.


Known problems
  • If you have two screens, there's a problem loading libcef.dll (Chromium Embedded FrameWork) which may prevent the application from launching. In this case, go to the tab Display in the Wine configuration window, tick Emulate a virtual desktop with a desktop size that suits your screen, for example 1600 x 1280.

  • If the screen resolution is too small, the IECefSubProcess.exe process may crash. Try increasing the screen resolution.

  • The HTTP proxy configuration test (menu Assistance > HTTP Configuration) causes Wine to crash if an HTTP server requires "Basic" authentication.


Warning

The diversity of Linux distributions and the variety of behavior within the same distribution mean that we can't guarantee optimal operation of our applications on Linux workstations. While we are now able to reproduce all Windows configurations, it is not materially possible to achieve the same under Linux. What's more, our support team cannot master all distributions and versions. The use of our software under Linux is therefore reserved for institutions with the necessary on-site skills, and a good command of their system environment and firewall.
