Hi all,

I have a question about instalation academic fluent 19.2 on free of charge linux distribution, becaouse im not allowed to buy redhat or other supported linux distros, so i have to use other one(could you help me choose one).

on our old Fedora 24, i got error file after full, undisturbed instalation where i got instal.err at end:

"
>>>--------------------------------------->
ANSYS installation: śr. paź 10 21:27:49 2018
Revision: Release 19.2

###### Error #######
__________________________________________________ ___

"


and i dont know is this is caused by system, by ansys, or by instalator.

i used ansys guide(https://windows.epfl.ch/info/linux.pdf)
where i mount iso file:

"For a locally-mounted DVD installation, issue the following commands:
mkdir dvdrom_dir mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom dvdrom_dir"

and this guide doesnt help at all...
my linux oriented collague said he is done here, if i would install new linux he would help, and its propably caused by old linux version.


so question is:

Does CentOS will help with that problem?

centos/7.5.1804/isos/x86_64


I dont want to reinstal several times linux cause im not alone on our server, and only mighty sysadmin have keys to room with server...


Any advice is welcome.
