Using Extracted or Zipped Archives for Repo

Create a local Feko update repository using extracted or multiple archives.

  1. Create the local repository folder, for example, C:\Updates.
    Note: If you already have an update repository for the same version, delete previous updates located in this folder.
  2. Download the updates for the required platforms from Altair Connect.
    For example, if both the Windows and Linux platforms are required, download the following:
    • FEKO_2024.1_WIN64_X86_64.zip
    • FEKO_2024.1_LINUX_X86_64.zip
  3. Unzip the downloaded archive(s) to the local repository folder.
    Important: Keep the structure of the .zip file intact.
    Important: If multiple platforms are downloaded, the platform updates must be located at the same folder (grouped by version) and merged (see example below).
Example: Extracting platform zip files with structure:
FEKO_2024.1_WIN64_X86_64.zip
    └─FEKO_2024.1.x
        └─WIN64_X86_64
            └─...
to C:\Updates:
C:\Updates 
    └─FEKO_2024.1.x
        └─WIN64_X86_64
            └─...
        └─LINUX_X86_64
            └─...
