Problem:

A. During the installation process, you double click on the frp.exe icon and you never see a pop-up window that begins the installation.
B. Only command prompt or terminal access is allowed to the server.
C. Various errors occur in Linux.



Solution:

Installation without the GUI can be performed from a command prompt with the following syntax, pay careful attention to the leading period in the Linux / Unix commands:

MACOSX
frp.app -i console

UNIX / Linux run:
chmod 777 frpro.bin
 ./frpro.bin -i console
or
 ./frpro.bin -i silent

Additional notes:
If PC Anywhere is running in Windows on the server there is a known issue.  Our software is installed using InstallAnywhere, a well known installer for software packageing. When PCAnywhere is running as a service in the background please do the following: install/upgrade to DirectX version 9.0B or a later version. This should resolve the issue. The PCAnywhere service can was conflict with the java plug-in on the local machine.

You can check to see what version of directX is running by going to a command prompt and typing "dxdiag" - the bottom of the screen will show the version you are running.

To upgrade to DirectX 9.0b go to the microsoft website and search for "DirectX"
