Pentaho

Dear Community members!

I downloaded, I believe last PDI (pdi-ce-9.4.0.0-343) and can not initiate Spoon.bat file.

For additional information: I tried all possible ways provided on internet (creating environment variables, copying Java to PDI folder and so on) and of no success.

A few of my colleagues from IT backend also did not succeed, only saying that workarounds worked in the beginning of the year.

But in principle, why is this so messy for open-source edition?

I have a similar issue (pentaho-server-ce-9.4.0.0-343) on Linux (Ubuntu). I am not able to locate ./spoon.sh anywhere in the installed folder (/usr/local/pentaho-server/).  What I am able to locate is start-pentaho.sh however when I try to run it, it doesn't start. I get start-pentaho.sh: command not found ... I am lost

Thanks @Petr Prochazka
I have installed PDI now. I have scanned the web for different sources to resolve multiple roadblocks so far. However, I am at a standstill now. When I run the $ sudo  ./spoon.sh I am getting the error below. I have done everything I can find online about this error without success.

ubuntu@ip-#########:/opt/data-integration$ sudo ./spoon.sh

I found a possible solution https://stackoverflow.com/questions/42800117/error-org-eclipse-swt-swterror-no-more-handles-gtk-init-check-failed-on-cen and followed the step, however, I am still getting the error message above.

I need help.

IMHO problem is call via sudo. Root may not have access to X server. Run spoon.sh under standard user ubuntu.
