Hi,
I am totally new to ProM6 and I have not much of a knowledge in scripts on Linux. Can anyone help me with a step-by-step installation and configuration guide for Prom6 on Linux CentOS6?

    Hi Savalan,

    First of all: welcome on board!!!

    I think that not much needs to be configured to run ProM, as long as you have Java 1.6 installed everything should work just fine!

    Let me know if you encounter any problems.

    Thanks JBuijs for your reply
    I downloaded the tar.gz and now I have a folder extracted with some .exe and .jar file... no ./configure or make or install file is included... what should I do to install ProM6 now?

    I mean I run ProM6.bat and ProM6.jar but I get this:

    [...CentOS ProM6]# ./ProM6.bat
    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/processmining/contexts/uitopia/UI
    Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.processmining.contexts.uitopia.UI
        at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:217)

        at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClassInternal(ClassLoader.java:332)
    . Program will exit.ain class: org.processmining.contexts.uitopia.UI



    thats why i thought there must be something I'm missing here...

    Thanks

    Hi savalan:

         The .bat files work only in Microsoft Windows. On linux you have to build .sh files to run ProM. The structure is quite similar, but the with some important differences. I'm using a script like this:

    ProM6.sh

    ----------------------
    #!/bin/sh

    export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:./ProM-Contexts.jar
    export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:./ProM-Framework.jar
    export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:./ProM-Models.jar
    export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:./ProM-Plugins.jar
    export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:lib/axis.jar
    export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:lib/bsh-2.0b4.jar
    export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:lib/collections-generic-4.01.jar
    ... (rest of the jars in lib)
    export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:lib/colt.jar
    export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:lib/commons-compress-1.0.jar

    java -ea -Xmx2G -XX:MaxPermSize=1G -classpath $CLASSPATH org.processmining.contexts.uitopia.UI
    -----------------------------------------------------------------
       Hope this help you.

        Best regards

    Hi savalan:
    This error means that some of the ProM basic jars is missing. Check that this files exists in this directory

    ProM-Contexts.jar
    ProM-Framework.jar
    ProM-Models.jar
    ProM-Plugins.jar

    This is the names of the jars when you get them from the CVS. If you download the package version they could have different names.
    Best regards

    Yaay!

    Hi Alejandro.

    Thanks, installing seems to work now. I ran the .sh file and it started downloading some packages and plug-ins.
    then the application started.

    but do i need to run the .sh file to start ProM every time? is there any quicker way to run the application cause it checks for the plugins online each time... I added my ProM directory to my PATH and when I run the command as ProM6.sh this is what I get:

    -----------------

    ...CentOS ~]$ ProM6.sh
    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/processmining/contexts/uitopia/UI
    Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.processmining.contexts.uitopia.UI
        at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:217)

        at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:205)
        at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:319)
        at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:294)
        at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:264)
        at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClassInternal(ClassLoader.java:332)
    Could not find the main class: org.processmining.contexts.uitopia.UI. Program will exit.

    -------------

    but it works fine in ProM directory.

    and something else... it runs extremely slow. each time I click on something it takes 1-2 seconds to react!

    is there anything I'm missing?

    again, thanks a million. I'm happy it got installed eventually.

    and... how do I run the Package manager?!
  • savalansavalan Posts: 7
    ok, I fixed the command line problem by adding my ProM directory to each line of .sh file... but couldnt come up with a solution/answer for the rest of my questions.
  • alfuentealfuente Posts: 5
    Hi savalan:

          To run the package manager you have to create a .sh just like the other, but with a different final line:

    java  -ea -Xmx2G -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -classpath $CLASSPATH org.processmining.contexts.uitopia.packagemanager.PMFrame

              Best regards
