Tricks for installing Discovery Studio client to Ubuntu

Below are some tricks you can try to use to install Discovery Studio Client to an Ubuntu Linux machine.
By default, the sh that Ubuntu is using is actually a command shell called dash that diffters from the sh shell that is in use in e.g. Redhat and Centos linuxes.

In Discovery studio installation this causes problems as the installation process is based on sh scripts.

One way to fix this issue is to redefine sh shell in your Ubuntu server as described e.g. in:

Discovery

Alternatively you can try following:

Discovery Studio Visualizer Tutorial

Start installation with bash shell and --keep option:

The installation process fails, but provides a temporary installation directory. Go to this direcory and modify the actual installation script a bit and execute the modified version:

StudioDiscovery Studio Visualizer

This command does most of the installation but the Lincese Pack installtion fails for the same reason as the main instllation process. The fix is also the same:

Now the installation is done and you just need to add the license data as described in the previous example.
