Install

The install process for the supported operating systems is explained below.

In any case you should try to update the program after a successful install.

Windows

You will need only one file for a Windows installation: skylog-<Version>.zip. Extract this archive to any folder using WinZip or any compatible tool. That's it.

Double click the file and the installer is started. You will be guided through the installation process.

The archive already includes the Eclipse platform and the Rich Client Framework in an appropriate version. You do not need to install them separately. The installed part of the Ecplipse platform is unchanged, but unused parts have not been not included to keep file size small.

Skylog can now be started by double clicking skylog.exe.

Prerequisite

The Java 5 runtime environment or a newer version must be installed to start Skylog.

Linux / Unix

You will need only one file for a Unix / Linux installation: skylog-<Version>.zip. Extract this archive to any folder using zip or any compatible tool. That's it.

Skylog can now be started with the command skylog .

Prerequisite

The Java 5 runtime environment or a newer version must be installed to start Skylog.

Others

Skylog runs on all systems supported by Java and Eclipse. A distribution archive however is only available for Windows and Linux because we do not have a test installation for other systems.
