To install Pro2 for Linux:

  1. Locate and execute the Pro2.bin file.

    There can be a numeric value in the file name that indicates the version of Pro2, for example, Pro2-6.5.0.bin.

    Note: Starting with Pro2 6.5.2, after locating the Pro2.bin file, run the following command from the command prompt:

    The supported Java version is Java 11 and Java 17.
  2. In the Pro2 installer, click Next to start the installation process.
  3. Specify the install folder path, for example, USER_INSTALL_DIR=/pro2inst.
  4. In the Choose OpenEdge window, specify the path or select Choose to browse and set the OpenEdge home directory.

    The directory is based on the version of OpenEdge that is installed on your machine, for example, OE_INSTALL_DIR=/_linuxx86_64/build/dlc.

  5. On the PAS for OpenEdge Ports screen, enter the port information for your PAS for OpenEdge instance and designate the instance name. For example:
    HTTP Port 9991

  6. Click Next and review the options you chose for this installation in the Pre-Installation Summary page.
  7. Click Install.
