How to install SILK workbench?

[shamimu...@gmail.com]

I have downloaded latest version (2.6.1) of SILK WorkBench.  I want to install it in both Mac and Windows Machine. Project README file is saying that "The bin-folder contains scripts for running the Silk Workbench on Windows, Linux and iOS."  I have tried to run silk-workbench.bat file. However it is giving me following errors.

Mac:
------

./silk-workbench.bat: line 1: @REM: command not found

: command not foundt: line 2: @REM

./silk-workbench.bat: line 3: @REM: command not found

./silk-workbench.bat: line 4: syntax error near unexpected token `('

./silk-workbench.bat: line 4: `@REM JAVA_HOME - location of a JDK home dir (opti'nal if java on path)

Windows:
------------
The input line is too long.
The syntax of the command is incorrect.

Please let me know how to install SILK workbench.

I am not familiar with use of sbt. I just want to use the SILK application. Can anyone help me?

Hello,

you can do sudo sh sbt (you shoulld have sbt installed in your machine)

after: sudo sh sbt "projetc workbench" run

go to localhost:9000

if not try to rebuild with sh sbt

Hi,

How was this issue resolved?
I just downloaded latest release of Silk Workbench and tried running batch file from bin folder on my Windows machine. I am getting exactly same error as you mentioned.

Thanks for the help

Problem will be solved if you use a shorter path for your batch file. It shouldn't be too nested folders.
