Installation problem of Trelis17.1 on Ubuntu LTS 18.04 wsl

Trelis Version 17.1:
Platform Ubuntu 18.04:

Issue
license activation problem

What can we help with?
what dose it mean of ’ unable to connect to license activation server(http 0)’?

I’ve successfully unpacked and installed ‘Trelis-17.1.0-Lin64.deb’ with dpkg -i option, and the folder appeared in /opt. But i can’t activate the application.
I’ve try to run ‘csimsoft-trelis-17.1.desktop’ and ‘rlm-activate’ of RLM-Server-17.0, both of them show the same problem of connection to server as mentioned above.
In the Trelis License status, the status is ‘Sever error:rlm does not know this ISV name’
And the log in terminal shows:‘QStandardPaths: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to ‘/tmp/runtime-root’’
Hoping to get your help.
Thx

Hi @David-Jacinte, this is going to depend on your WSL setup. It seems that you don’t have a http connection to the internet for Cubit to connect to our activation server on. You can follow the documentation at https://coreform.com/support/activation/cubit/activateoffline/ to get your license file, which you can then copy over to your WSL installation.
You’re also likely to have problems with the GUI when using WSL, since GUI applications are not officially supported by Microsoft on WSL yet. I assume you have some form of X forwarding set up?

Yes, because our server’s system is Ubuntu, i’d like to be famillar with your execllent programme with WSL on my personal computer, which is win 10, before using it on servers. Perhaps there is the problem of my proxy setting, in fact i’ve successfully connected to Google in the Terminal. And there is also the problems on GUI with WSL as you said.
Thanks to your effort on interoperability, now i study the usage of your programme by win10-ver, and i think it will not take too much effort to adapt to linux-ver, isn’t it?
Finally, does it have some exemples for the second development based on python? We would like to apply your mesh generation advance on our projet, but i don’t have the experience of second development and i can’t find enough useful information about it.
Thank you very much for your help

The operation of Cubit is the same between Windows and Linux, so go ahead and install the Windows version. The only significant difference is Windows uses MSMPI and Linux uses OpenMPI for certain parallel algorithms.
You can look at https://coreform.com/cubit_help/cubithelp.htm#t=appendix%2Fpython%2Fimporting_cubit_into_python.htm for an example of how to import Cubit into Python.
