How to run Blast2go on Ubuntu
Although Ubuntu come with its own java version but I found that it didn't work for Blast2go. Therefore I decide to install Oracle Java (JDK). You can install Oracle Java (JDK) by these commands one by onesudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installerYou can your java version by this command
java -versionit should print like this in terminal
java version "1.7.0_67" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_67-b01) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.65-b04, mixed mode)Note to me
Above command will install Oracle Java 8 but I found that Blast2go didn't work for Oracle
Java 8 therefore I decide to install previous version of Oracle Java. You can replace 8 with
6 or 7 to install Oracle Java 6 or Oracle Java 7
Now we are all set. Just go to your working directory and type
javaws blast2go1000.jnlpRemember that I downloaded the 1000MB version of Blast2go therefore my command include the '1000'. It should as per your requirement.
