The whole procedure is not very straight forward, but still easily possible.</p> <h1 id="get-codesys-sp13-or-higher">Get CODESYS SP13 or higher</h1> <p>You can <a class="" href="https://store.codesys.com/codesys.html" rel="nofollow">download CODESYS</a> from the CODESYS store (use 32bit version). You need an account for that, before you can download it, but all is for free.</p> <h1 id="use-development-version-of-wine">Use Development Version of Wine</h1> <p>At the time of writing this, I needed to install the development version of wine.</p> <div class="codehilite"><pre><span></span>sudo apt-get install wine64-development cabextract winbind </pre></div> <h1 id="get-winetricks">Get winetricks</h1> <p>You will need to download winetricks, which helps you in installing Dot Net, as well as several Visual C++ Runtimes:</p> <div class="codehilite"><pre><span></span>wget -c https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Winetricks/winetricks/master/src/winetricks chmod 755 winetricks </pre></div> <h1 id="install-prerequisits">Install Prerequisits</h1> <p>Like already mentioned above, you should install some packages using winetricks. I recommend ot use an own wine directory for that:</p> <div class="codehilite"><pre><span></span>WINEPREFIX=~/.wine.codesys ./winetricks vcrun2005 vcrun2008 vcrun2013 vcrun2015 dotnet46 </pre></div> <h1 id="switch-to-win7">Switch to Win7</h1> <p>The emulated windows has to be configured to Windows 7. You can do so by using winecfg:</p> <div class="codehilite"><pre><span></span>WINEPREFIX=~/.wine.codesys winecfg-development </pre></div> <h1 id="install-codesys">Install CODESYS</h1> <h2 id="run-the-setup">Run the setup</h2> <div class="codehilite"><pre><span></span>WINEPREFIX=~/.wine.codesys wine-development ~/Downloads/CODESYS\ 3.5.13.0.exe </pre></div> <h2 id="ignore-errors-for-visual-c-runtimes">Ignore errors for Visual C++ Runtimes</h2> <p>Just click through the first part of the setup, and always ignore errors, if s.th. could not be installed.</p> <h2 id="dont-install-codemeter">Don't install Codemeter</h2> <p>Do not cancel the installer, just deselect every component of the Codemeter Setup, as this will fail.</p> <h2 id="wait-for-space-computation">Wait for Space Computation</h2> <p>This is a dialog, which takes a long time. Just wait, it will finish.</p> <h2 id="use-custom-setup">Use Custom Setup</h2> <p>In the custom setup you should deselect all, except CODESYS itself (no OPC DA, no CODESYS Control Services, ...)<br/> Codesys Gateway works on 32bit and 64bit edition.</p> <h2 id="add-registry-key">Add Registry Key</h2> <p>After the installation finished successfully, you need to add a registry key. Without this, I got an error of wine, saying "The specified user does not have a valid profile".</p> <div class="codehilite"><pre><span></span>WINEPREFIX=~/.wine.codesys wine-development reg add "HKLM\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows NT\\CurrentVersion\\ProfileList\\S-1-5-21-0-0-0-1000" </pre></div> <h1 id="start-codesys">Start CODESYS</h1> <p>CODESYS should now be ready to start...</p> <div class="codehilite"><pre><span></span>WINEPREFIX=~/.wine.codesys wine-development ~/.wine.codesys/dosdevices/c\:/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/CODESYS\ 3.5.13.0/CODESYS/Common/CODESYS.exe </pre></div> <h2 id="linux-rte-online">Linux RTE online</h2> <p>You can install the Linux RTE and login with your Codesys IDE to this PLC.<br/> <img alt="Codesys IDE and PLC on Linux with Webvisu" rel="nofollow" src="https://forge.codesys.com/forge/support/_discuss/thread/965c1a79/c59b/attachment/CS35onLinux.PNG"/></p> <h2 id="dont-install-svn-plugin">Don't install SVN Plugin</h2> <p>At the moment do not install the SVN Plugin into codesys, it will break your installation.</p></div>
