Installation Guide

Requirement installation

(This was tested on an Ubuntu 32 bit system)

  1. Install UxAS and verify it is running correctly.
  2. Switch to the ICAROUS_integration branch of UxAS and recompile UxAS.
  3. Install ICAROUS and verify it is running correctly.
  4. Switch ICAROUS branch to cratous:
git checkout cratous

CRATOUS Installation

  1. Copy the cratous repository into the cFS/apps folder relative to your ICAROUS installation with:
git clone http://github.com/nasa/cratous cFS/apps/cratous
  1. Rebuild icarous from the top folder (icarous):
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCRATOUS=ON ..
make -j9 cpu1-install
  1. At this point it should be good to run. To test, run the examples found in OpenUxAS/example/07_.../. The file runDemo.sh in each of these should run the example without any other input. Note: You may need to set the value in /proc/sys/fs/mqueue/max_msg to 1000 so that ICAROUS can run without sudo.
