A. I cannot unpack/extract a compressed file

The Linux/Unix compiler is a compressed tar archive. It can only be extracted with the ‘uncompress’ and ‘tar’ tools (unzip will not recognise the file format).

There are two options:

  1. Uncompress and tar the file:
    1. uncompress file.tar.Z
    2. tar xvf file.tar

  2. Perform both with the tar command (if you are using GNU tar):

    tar zxvf file.tar.Z

B. I cannot run/execute the installer

I cannot install any Querix tools

Run the installer in the extracted directory by typing the following command: 

./installqx

Chimera will not install correctly

Chimera requires a Java runtime engine. Download the latest version of the free Java Runtime Engine from the Oracle website and install it before installing Chimera.

C. My installer does not execute or terminates abnormally

Download the installer again and rerun the installation. If you get the same error again, please contact Querix technical support.
