Installation - Syndeia Standalone

Download and unzip the Syndeia Standalone installation zip, e.g. Syndeia_3.5_SP1_Standalone.zip. Follow the instructions below to set up Syndeia Standalone for Windows and Mac OS X.

Windows

(1) After unzipping the Syndeia Standalone installation zip file on Windows, the folder structure will appear as below.

(2) Gather additional lib folders based on the repositories and models you want to work with. See instructions on configuring integrations. Copy those lib folders (e.g. libTC for Teamcenter) into Standalone's folder into their own sub-folders. (The figure shows the example for the libDOORS folder.)

(3) Open the Syndeia.bat file in a text editor and verify that the java64 variable is set to the location of the Java executable on your machine, as shown below.

(4) Copy the Syndeia license file that you obtained from us to the .syndeia folder in your user directory. If you do not have a .syndeia folder, create one in your user directory. If you have problems creating the .syndeia folder using Windows explorer, create it using the command window or terminal. On Windows 10, this would be C:\Users\<Your Account>\.syndeia 

(5) Double-click the Syndeia.bat file to launch Syndeia Standalone.

(7) Now follow instructions in the Syndeia Standalone tutorials to create your first Syndeia project.

(8) Syndeia Standalone log file will be located in the .syndeia\3.5 folder in your user directory, e.g. C:\Users\<YourUserName>\.syndeia\3.5\syndeia.log

(4) Copy the Syndeia license file that you obtained from us to the .syndeia folder in your user directory. If you do not have a .syndeia folder, create one in your user directory.

Apple introduced security policies which quarantine executables from unverified / untrusted / aka non-Apple sites.

When the Standalone zip is downloaded from Intercax.com, Apple automatically marks the included Java Native Interface library file `lib/lmMac64-11.1.2.x.jnilib` as quarantined.

This attribute blocks the JVM from properly loading and running the Syndeia standalone dashboard client.

The quarantine attribute can be removed by a sudo user.

sudo xattr -d com.apple.quarantine lib/IlmMac64-11.1.2.x.jnilib
