Firstly, I only took 9 days to get approved by Woopra, some posts on the forums say that may take weeks.



Installing Woopra on Linux is simple and it is a graphical process. Look at the screenshot below.

You can download the installer here and install it with sh woopra.sh. I installed it at my home pathes: /home/username/lib/Woopra for Woopra program, and /home/username/bin for symbolic link.



When I tried to run it, I got an error:

 
My JRE is from Sun and it's 64 Bit, you can check yours by running java -version, which outputs like:

java version "1.6.0_06"

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_06-b02)

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 10.0-b22, mixed mode)
The solutions are two, both are easy. First one is to remove sun-java6-bin package and install ia32-sun-java6-bin package.



Second one is easy, too, and better. Install ia32-sun-java6-bin package, first. Then test with this newly install 32 bit JRE with

INSTALL4J_JAVA_HOME_OVERRIDE=/usr/lib/jvm/ia32-java-6-sun/jre Woopra
This forces the startup script, /home/username/bin/Woopra in my case, to use specified Java JRE not the one that it can find on your system.



Once Woopra runs successfully and with no error, close it. Find the startup script, if you don't know where it is, you can run whereis Woopra or type Woopra (in Bash). If none of both get result, use find / -name Woopra.



Find it, and open it with editor, and put the following line at second line (an empty line):

INSTALL4J_JAVA_HOME_OVERRIDE=/usr/lib/jvm/ia32-java-6-sun/jre
Now, simply run Woopra in terminal or from main menu.
