For the Ubuntu tutorial go to the third post.

1. Go to Start > Computer > C: > Program Files (x86) > Java > jre6 > bin

or

If you have both do the one with (x86)

2. Right click in the address/path bar at the top of the window, select "Copy Address as Text"

3. Close that window

4. Go to "Start", right click on "Computer" and selection "Properties". Then select the "Advanced system settings" link on the left column of that window.

5. Click the "Environment Variables" button.

6. A window will pop up. Scroll down a bit in the options list at the bottom of this window until you see the "Path" options. Select it and click the "edit" button.

7. Click on the end of the text that is already in the field there and type a semicolon ";" (without the quotes), then after the semicolon right click and "Paste" the path that we copied earlier.

example of how a path would look when added (note yours may be different):

%systemroot%\system32;%systemroot%;%systemroot%\system32\wbem;C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin

8. Click Ok on all the windows and close them.

9. Re-run your installer file (install-windows).

Please note, this is all of the Rsbots forum, just trying to help the people here

Extract the files onto your desktop.
There should be a new folder called botclient on your desktop.

Now, you have to install it.

Before you try this guide, you should already have Java JDK 5 and 6.
To get Java JDK, go to Applications > Accessories > Terminal, and type in the following:

Code:

sudo apt-get install default-jdk

Sudo means to run the command as the root user (administrator).

1 - How to install RSBots on Ubuntu

Please follow the following steps below:

1)Firstly, click on Application > Accessories > Terminal.

2)Run terminal, and in it type in the following

Code:

cd ~/Desktop/botclient

3a)Then type in

Code:

./install-mac-linux.sh

3b) If you receive a permissions error, type this in

Code:

chmod +x install-mac-linux.sh

if not, go straight to step 5.
4) Now re-type in

Code:

./install-mac-linux.sh

[size=3][b]4)A window should pop up, fill out the settings asked, example:
-Operating System: Linux GTK 32-bit (or Linux GTK 64-bit if you have Ubuntu 64-bit)
[img]http://victorystreet.net/uploader/filestore/97/ARGUvp_33r.final8.png._

-Version: Don't worry about the recommened, just scroll down and select the highest number, in my case, it is 21.132

-SQL Version: Should only have 1 option, so don't worry about that
5) Now hit install.
6) Once the window disappears. Close Terminal.
7) Re-do the steps from 1 to 2
8a) Now type in

Code:

./run-linux.sh

8b) If you recieve a permissions error, then continue to step 9, if not skip straight to step 10.

9) Type in

Code:

chmod +x run-linux.sh

10) Now type in

Code:

./run-linux.sh

and the bot should now be working.

2 - What to do after an update

If you ever receive the following window:

Simply click OK, and another window like this:

should appear after this. Once you have clicked OK, start from Step 1 and re-do the guide again.

There you go, again from Rsbots
