How can I install Jitterbit Studio 9.3 on Ubuntu 18.04?

Is there a way to install Jitterbit Studio on Ubuntu 18.04?

Solution

For anyone trying to install JtterbitStudio 9.3 on Ubuntu 18.04, I prepared a recipe and I though on shearing it here. I haven't got the time to test thoroughly but seems to work ok.

First you need java (In case you don't have it already):

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java;
sudo apt-get update;
sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer;
sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-set-default;
java -version;

    java version "1.8.0_171"
    Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_171-b11)
    Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.171-b11, mixed mode)

NOTE: put these in your .profile or .bashrc

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle;
export JRE_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/jre;

Once Java is installed you need to download Jitterbit Studio for Mac OS X:

wget https://download.jitterbit.com/9.3b4TWcqvuVw45UdxQ/JitterbitStudio-9.3.1.3.dmg

We are going to need dmg2img to convert the dmg package into a usable filesystem image in order to mount it.

sudo apt-get install dmg2img;
dmg2img JitterbitStudio-9.3.1.3.dmg JitterbitStudio-9.3.1.3.img;
sudo mount -o loop -t hfsplus JitterbitStudio-9.3.1.3.img /mnt;
cd /mtn;

copy the "Jitterbit Studio 9.3.app" directory to it's final destination (I used my home directory):

cp -rp 'Jitterbit Studio 9.3.app' $HOME;
cd $HOME;
cd 'Jitterbit Studio 9.3.app'/Contents/MacOS;
cp launch-studio launch-studio.mac;

Edit the startup shell script:

vi launch-studio;

12d11
<   osascript -e "tell app \"System Events\" to display dialog \"$msg\""
15c14
< APP=$(mdfind kMDItemCFBundleIdentifier=="com.jitterbit.studio93" | head -1)
---
> APP="$HOME/Jitterbit Studio 9.3.app"; export APP
49c48
<     err=$("$JRE" -client $STARTUP_ARGUMENTS -splash:"$JITTERBIT_CLIENT_HOME/splashscreen.png" -Xdock:icon="$APP/Contents/Resources/client_icon_256_mac.icns" -classpath "$libdir/*:$JITTERBIT_CLIENT_HOME/configuration/" com.jitterbit.integration.client.osx.Jitterbit)
---
>     err=$("$JRE" -client $STARTUP_ARGUMENTS -splash:"$JITTERBIT_CLIENT_HOME/splashscreen.png" -classpath "$libdir/*:$JITTERBIT_CLIENT_HOME/configuration/" com.jitterbit.integration.client.osx.Jitterbit)

chmod 755 launch-studio;

and run it:

./launch-studio;

Hope this helps some one.
