Upgrade to 4.4.1 - Error Code 13

We have been running Knime AP 3.7.2 on our linux box for some time, and realized we needed to upgrade it recently after how far behind we are. We created a test box that was a clone of our 3.7.2 instance and downloaded the 4.4.1 linux files, and extracted them onto the new test box.

But, when we go to run ./knime we get the following error:

Knime:

The 3.7.2 Knime does still run from the other installation folder, and in reading the JVM for each version seems to come from the Knime folder, but I’m not sure if we are missing something else here?

Hi @argovian , unfortunately, you cannot upgrade to Knime 4.4.1 like this. You need to do a full installation. There are quite major changes in Knime 4.4.x, namely it requires a new version of Java.

Hey Bruno29a, thanks for the reply.

Is this not the correct installation process for this tho? Install | KNIME

I downloaded & Extracted the .tar file and I get this error when trying to start knime, is there another install guide I’m missing for linux?

Hello @argovian,

have you managed to resolve your issue?

In short yes. More info can be found in Docs:
