How to Start DVT on Linux

The easiest way to install DVT is from one of the distributions available on dvteclipse.com. Download a distribution matching your operating system. Open a terminal and unzip the downloaded file.

Set Environment Variables

Set the DVT_HOME environment variable to point to the unzipped dvt_eclipse folder.

For C shell, use setenv to set the variable.

For bash, use export to set the variable.

Configure Licensing

If you're using DVT with a local license, then set the DVT_LICENSE_FILE variable as the license file path.

If you're using a license server, then set the DVT_LICENSE_FILE as FLEXLM and the DVTLMD_LICENSE_FILE as port_number@license_server.

Starting DVT

Now you can start DVT using the dvt.sh script.
