TOPIC:

I am having trouble installing CTC 8.60 on Ubuntu 24.04 running in VMWare Fusion Pro (8G RAM, 200G disk, 2 cores). The install starts fine, but when I get to Remove and Build All it runs for a long time and then shoots an error and locks the VM up tight. I have tried it multiple times. I went through the scripts for installing the system libraries and noticed that there were several that did not install. I corrected those and tried again. No luck. My last attampt was to select item 6, Remove and Build Typhon IDE.  It went for a while and finally threw some errors and then appeared to lock the VM up at the step where it says "make some links for Typhon64". After a few minutes, however, it threw an error up and went to the Install menu. I have copied the last error messages below. Any ideas what I could be doing wrong? Also, is CTC sensitive to VMs? ...this VM? ...this OS?  I am not wedded to Ubuntu nor VMWare, although I do want to use a VM. Any thoughts?

Did you follow these steps ?
Did you give "sudo" root privileges to installation user ?

Minimum CPU core is 4 ?

Can try to build and SmallIDE from CTCenter.

After trying the build a number of times and even switching over to Fedora and giving that a try, I actually paid attention to what was going on. It was running out of memory. I had the VM set for 8G thinking that would be fine. I jacked it up to 20G and ran it again and watched the system monitor. It ended up peaking at more than 12G during the build. After the install I went back and set the RAM for the VM back to 8G. All is well.
