I just came here after learning Knime for 6+ hours on Youtube, when I was ready to understand and perform my necessary analysis related to ML and LLM, the ubuntu installation is not opening the set of nodes to ingest datasets like Excel or CsvReader.
When Node selected and modal opens, it’s not like in the official tutorials or advertisements. Its just a this modal, and when seleting File, the options are Load Settings / Save Settings, neither work.
After close inspection the errors I saw in the console where about some sort of GMK package, but I already had those files in my system. So couldn’t fix.
I just wanted to state that Ubuntu user’s will not have the best day using this software.
I know its a bit harsh to just come and leave, but today’s world is like this. I need to solve a problem in 1-2 days not waiting weeks for a potential solution that might never even come (as future reader might perceive when reading this in the future). So, good luck to Knime.
I can’t confirm that universal statement. I’m running KNIME since long times on Ubuntu (actual Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS). At it works fine
Maybe the world today is requesting answers that fast. KNIME is a tool which can support you to respond that quickly. But all powerful tools will take a few minutes of learning the basics and advanced features. Whether 6 hours YT videos are enough for you to give you the overall insight on all the capabilities of KNIME? I don’t know, but for me it took a little bit longer.
And yes: I also struggled with some problems running KNIME (on severals platforms). For all questions I found solutions mostly here in this communities.
So have a look in the knowledge base formed by this forum and / or give us more details about the issues you are facing and I’m sure that you will get full support.
