update java to latest 32 and 64bit
cygwin 32bit only
2.2- Installation for Windows (using cygwin):
////////////////////////////////////////////////
When running on Windows, Moshell uses a unix emulator known as Cygwin.
Go directly to step 12 if you have already installed and configured cygwin
previously.
1- Go to the website [Link] and click on "Install Cygwin"
2- Save the [Link] file, then execute it. Make sure to use the 32-bit setup,
as 64-bit cygwin is not supported by moshell.
3- Choose "Install from internet", then click Next.
4- Root Directory "C:/cygwin" (It is not recommended to choose a different
directory, especially if it contains spaces).
5- Select Internet Connection window: if connected on a corporate network without
direct internet access, put the proxy settings or select "use Internet Explorer
settings". Then click Next.
6- Choose a Download Site. For instance [Link] is known
to work well but probably others work fine too.
7- Select Packages: Add the following packages:
- under "Archive", select "zip" and "unzip"
- under "Perl", select "perl", "perl-XML-Simple", and "perl-IO-Tty"
- under "Net", select "inetutils", "openssh", "openssl"
- under "Tcl", select "expect"
- under "Libs", select "libglib2.0_0"
- under "Database", select "postgresql"
- under "Graphics", select "gnuplot"
- under "Editors" select "vim" (optional)
8- Click Next. Install will start. Wait for installation to complete.
9- Copy the file moshell/examples/cygwin_install/cygwin_install.txt to C:/Cygwin
(also available from [Link]
10- Click on Start --> Run. In the "Run" window, type: cmd , then press "enter".
A DOS window opens. At the DOS prompt, execute the following commands:
c:
cd cygwin
bin\[Link] cygwin_install.txt
This will create the following files: c:/cygwin/etc/profile, c:/cygwin/[Link],
c:/cygwin/home/youruserid/.bashrc, c:/cygwin/home/youruserid/.minttyrc,
c:/cygwin/home/youruserid/.inputrc. If those files already exist, they are
automatically moved to the folder c:/cygwin/tmp/installbackup.
11- Open a cygwin terminal window by double-clicking on the cygwin icon in the
start menu or on the file c:/cygwin/[Link]. The window should be black with
white text and the prompt should like this: [~]$
If not, then go through all the steps again and make sure you haven't missed out
anything.
12- Moshell installation:
Copy the moshell installation package ([Link]) to your home directory (e.g.
c:/cygwin/home/youruser).
Open the cygwin shell and run the following commands:
>> unzip -o [Link]
>> bash moshell_install
When prompted to enter the directory where you want to install moshell, it is
recommended to specify your HOME directory ( ~ ). If you have executed
moshell_install from your home directory then you can press the enter key and the
current directory is selected.
If a previous moshell installation already exists, it is recommended to install in
the same directory as the old one. This way, all your custom files (jar/xml files,
site files, etc.) get copied across to the new revision and the old revision gets
moved to a different location so you can still access it if needed. When prompted
to enter the java path just type "java" on its own.
