[Solved] Abaqus installation - "jre directory not found."

Hi,

I am trying to install Abaqus (http://www.3ds.com/products-services/si … ts/abaqus/), but encounter a problem.

In the setup file it says

#!/bin/csh -f

so I installed tcsh. Then I try to install it by

csh
% abaqus/setup

which leads to:

Checking system for stale NFS handles.  This will 
take just a moment...

Installing Abaqus for platform Linux/x86-64...
Extracting temporary installation utilities to /tmp... 
unzip.exe: loadlocale.c:131: _nl_intern_locale_data: Assertion `cnt < (sizeof (_nl_value_type_LC_COLLATE) / sizeof (_nl_value_type_LC_COLLATE[0]))' failed.
Abort (core dumped)
***ERROR: jre directory not found.

I really hope the "unzip.exe" is just a symptom, this just looks wrong.

I have got the following packages containing "jre" in their names:

bin32-jre 8u66-1
jre8-openjdk 8.u66-1
jre8-openjdk-headless 8.u66-1

invoking "archlinux-java status" delivers only

  java-8-openjdk/jre (default)

though. Could you please give me a hint how to solve this problem? Thank you very much!

Re: [Solved] Abaqus installation - "jre directory not found."

In the abaqus help it says:

To install the Abaqus products:

From the Abaqus parent directory, execute the following command or use the following option:

Linux platforms

/prod_dir/setup [-jre system|path_to_jre] [-replay full_path_to_replay_file] [-sysinfo] [-nosystemchecks] [-help]

where prod_dir is the directory used when the Licensing & Products DVD was mounted or where the product installation files reside.

EDIT:
Maybe this also helps:

If you need some translation, feel free to ask.

Thank you very much,

abaqus/setup -jre /usr/bin/java
 

did the job. Should have seen this by myself.
