Comment installer l'AIR d'adobe sur Ubuntu

Signalé près Keshav le 6 avril 2008

Les technologies d'adobe ont libéré la version de Linux d'AIR d'adobe il y a quelques semaines qui apporte des applications et des widgets de Web à votre ordinateur de bureau. L'installation de nouvelles applications sur une distribution de Linux est toujours un mystère pour des internautes novice tellement voici un guide qui t'enseigne comment installer l'AIR d'adobe sur Ubuntu.

  1. Ouvrez la borne
  2. Téléchargez le dossier d'ici employant la commande de wget :
    http://airdownload.adobe.com/air/lin/download/1.5/AdobeAIRInstaller.bin
  3. Le nom du dossier est AdobeAIRInstaller.bin
  4. Économiser le dossier dans la chemise à la maison (endroits > Chemise à la maison)
  5. Courez cette commande :
    chmod +x AdobeAIRInstaller.bin
  6. Courez maintenant cette commande :
    sudo ./AdobeAIRInstaller.bin

L'installateur normal l'ouvrira, installe. Dès maintenant toutes les fois que vous téléchargez un dossier de .air, double clic juste il et lui sera installé.

Jetez en outre un coup d'oeil à 10 applications d'AIR d'adobe les plus utiles passé en revue par Sizlopedia.

I've had sound issues as well. Can't record correctly from a USb mic. But as they say...that is another problem altogether. Did you have any luck Ronald?

    The installation on 64-bit linux machines is a little different and requires some 32-bit libraries present on machine. Read this page for more details: http://bit.ly/4pAk
  • Thx, very very mucho!
  • Rich
    I had to close Firefox-2 before the AIR install would work; before that I got the "Installation may not be allowed" error as above.

    Hope this helps!
  • ThisGuyDoug
    Thanks Rich for the tip. I was getting the same error as Ronald. Once I closed Flock/Firefox, the install went smoothly and completed successfully.
  • Someone
    Big thanks.
  • Won't work for 64bit Ubuntu. Try this: http://www.wynia.org/wordpress/wp-content/cache...

    I am using Vista and I get the error message:

    An error occurred while installing Adobe AIR. Installation may not be allowed by your administrator. Please contact your administrator.

    Can these steps help me get thru? Thanks!

    I'm new to Linus so I must be ding something wrong.

    When I run "chmod +x adobeair_linux_a1_033108.bin"

    It tells me "No such file or directory"

    I know its there, I can see it on the desktop.

  • I was having some challenges, getting that "sorry, an error has occured" message mid-install. I closed Opera and retried the install and it worked fine! Anyone having that error should definitely try shutting down their browser first.

    (May want to throw a note at the bottom of the original post with the "shut down browser before finishing install" note.)
  • @Ronald : As usual you can't get it on a 64bit system.
  • Phil
    Ok, I got it in but now what?

    Or do I have to install more from the other Air apps?

    Thanks and my Linux IM buds thank you too.

    Phil
  • thanks a lot in the name of all us ubuntu newbies!
  • Nice...
    Adobe Air up and working in Ubuntu 8.04. Its a hell lotta glitchy though!
  • thanks :D this is very helpful for noob like me.

    If u hv any problem just make sure the chmod is done in the right folder.
  • khaled
  • Thanks for this tutorial. Installation worked great with adobeair_linux_a1_033108.bin, but failed with the latest bin. A window pops up to tell me the installation failed and I had to ask my administrator about that. Straaaange ...
  • Figured out what it was, Before you install a new version of Adobe AIR on Ubuntu, you must uninstall the old version. Otherwise you'll get the error message above.

    And btw Air is not beta anymore, here's the official 1.5 version:

    http://airdownload.adobe.com/air/lin/download/1...
  • syed
    the download link should be modified to point to latest released version of AIR 1.5 on linux (http://get.adobe.com/air)
  • Link modified. Thanks for reporting.
  • I tried to install AIR using the commands you have shared. But I got an error message reading

    "Sorry, an error has occurred."

    Adobe AIR could not be installed because another application is already being installed. Complete the first installation before proceeding with this one."

    Now what might be the reason and what should I do?
  • Ronhead
    Excelent!
    thats works

    thanks
  • Thanks a ton!
  • I've found an easier way to install Adobe Air on Ubuntu (I'm using Ubuntu 8.04 - The Hardy Heron).

    All I did was to visit the Adobe Air Marketplace [http://tinyurl.com/2ydjqx] and requested to install one of the apps there. When you do this, you'll be told that Adobe Air is not installed on your machine and then be given a chance to install it.

    There's no need to use the Ubuntu Terminal this way.
  • Tim
    I also got the infamous "Could not be installed because an another application is already being installed error".

    For some reason, this error disappeared when I stopped the synaptic package manager (Which I had open to install some other toys..)
    (This on Ubuntu 8.10)
  • If you get the unhelpful error message, try:

    sudo aptitude remove adobeair-enu

    Worked for me.

    Cheers, Doug.
  • I also was getting and error when trying to upgrade from a previous version.

    Finally figured out that Air installs a package. Removing the old package with

    apt-get remove adobeair1.0

    solved the problem.
  • Thanks a million for the instructions and for the added method in the comments section. It was what I needed to install it. :)
  • Glad to help always.
  • removing the adobeair-enu package worked for me as well on 8.04 (without even closing firefox). i was having trouble before and couldnt figure out why. thanks so much!
  • Roberto
    Thanks!
  • Thanks for the tips. Just a few questions remain:

    1. How do we "open the terminal"?
    2. How do we use a wget command?

    I'm assuming if I knew the answers to those two questions I would know how to run the other commands. This is why so many still use Windows. Why don't programs used on Unix systems have auto-installers?
  • Works like a charm! :D
  • Thanks for the quick tutorial. When I downloaded Adobe Air I had a .bin file and had no idea what to do with it. I Googled for some help and this was the first result. :)

    Thanks!
  • Perfect! Works like a charm on Ubuntu 9.04 x64. Thank you!
  • Nader
    Thx alot man ur the best :D
  • If you can not do the simple "sudo ./AdobeAIRInstaller.bin" thing, try the following:

    $ chmod 777 AdobeAIRInstaller.bin
    $ ./AdobeAIRInstaller.bin

    Worked for me, and remember to close your browser first. :)
