Software Installation

Software Installation

Prerequisites

Before installation, ensure your system meets the requirements outlined in the Introduction page.

Install CodeMeter and AxProtector

Before using the SDK, you'll need to install two licensing components:

  • CodeMeter – Used to activate and manage your license
  • AxProtector – Enables the SDK to check that a valid license is present

Download

All required installers are provided together in the download package. After downloading, please follow the instructions on this page to complete the installation.

Required files (included in the download package):

  • codemeter_8.40.7109.500_amd64.deb
  • cpsrt.zip
  • codemeter_api-8.40.500-py3-none-any.whl

Validated configuration

The components included with the SDK installer that interface with CodeMeter Runtime have been validated for use with CodeMeter Runtime 8.40.x (as specified above). This configuration represents the validated environment for the provided SDK package.

If a different version of CodeMeter Runtime (for example, newer releases such as Wibu 11.x) is used, version selection, compatibility verification, and related maintenance are outside the scope of the validated configuration.

Install

sudo apt update
sudo dpkg -i ./codemeter_8.40.7109.500_amd64.deb
# Fix missing dependencies
sudo apt-get install -f
unzip cpsrt.zip
sudo cp lin/x64/libcpsrt.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
sudo cp lin/x64-musl/libcpsrt.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-musl

Verify Installation

After installation, verify that CodeMeter is running:

sudo systemctl status codemeter

The service should show as active (running).
