The installer described above is basically a more convenient method of installing the tarball version and is recommended. However, the tarball is a tried and tested install option and provides a backup in case of problems.
To install the OT using the tarball distribution please the follow the steps given below.
The post-installation setup for Linux and Mac OS is as follows:
> cd ALMAOT-C8/setup > ./Setup-Linux.sh > cd ..The setup is very similar for Windows except that the file that must be run will be named Setup-Windows, or Setup-Windows.cmd. It may also be possible to download tarball versions which include a JRE - the installation steps will be identical, but the file name of the download will be different.
Similar issues may affect tarball installation on a Mac as apply to the OT Installer (Section 2.1.4). If changes need to be made to your ``Security & Privacy'' settings, running the setup script again should work correctly.
