Installing on Linux (RPM)

How to install Flexi on Linux Fedora, CentOS, RedHat

Written by Lenka Haringerová

This guide describes how to install, update, and uninstall ABRA Flexi on Linux distributions that use RPM packages (Fedora, CentOS, RHEL, SUSE).

ℹ️ Before installing, verify that your computer meets the system requirements. You need administrator (root) privileges to perform the installation.

Installation

Download the installation package with the RPM extension for your distribution from the website and click on it. A package installation window will appear, in which you should click the Install Package button.

The installation will then proceed, which may take up to several minutes depending on the speed of your computer. You will then be asked whether you want to install the package.

At this point, the required libraries will be downloaded.

⚠️ Installation log. If the installation fails, you can find the log at /var/log/flexibee-install-log.txt (or alternatively /var/log/flexibee-client-install-log.txt). Provide this log to support when you want to identify the cause of the installation failure.

Uninstallation

Open Package Installer, which in GNOME can be found in the System menu. You will first be prompted for the administrator password, after which the manager window will open. Select the Installed section and use the filter to search for the flexibee package. Then click the Remove button, followed by the Apply button.

After clicking the Apply button, you will be asked if you want to remove the package. If so, click the Apply button.

Installation and uninstallation from the command line

You can also install and uninstall Flexi from the command line. Open a terminal window and use the command from the table below to install the package.
