Why RapidMinerGUI.bat does not work?

Rodmigor

Dear RapidMiner Community,

I try to install RapidMiner on Ubuntu. First I have downloaded and extracted archive available here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/rapidminer/files/1.%20RapidMiner/5.2/rapidminer-5.2.008.zip/download

Second, I put the extracted archive into my home directory. In the "/rapidminer/scripts" I have found RapidMinerGUI.bat file and made it executable (chmod +x RapidMinerGUI.bat). Before I run it, I have installed Java by typing in the command line "sudo apt-get install default-jre".

Then I run RapidMinerGUI.bat and it does not work. The GUI does not start and I get the following error messages, that I cannot understand:

./RapidMinerGUI.bat: line 1: @echo: command not found
./RapidMinerGUI.bat: line 2: SETLOCAL: command not found
./RapidMinerGUI.bat: line 3: $'\r': command not found

Can anybody please help me to solve this problem?

Hi,

RapidMinerGUI.bat can only be used on Windows machines. Please use RapidMinerGUI without an ending to start RapidMiner.

cd $RAPIDMINER_FOLDER/scripts
chmod +x RapidMinerGUI
./RapidMinerGUI

Best,
Nils
