EKM Dash on Linux won't run

Received water meter , Pulse V.4, iSerial yesterday.
Set up iSerial appropriate for my LAN.

Hope this is an appropriate place to post this.

Running Ubuntu 14.04 Linux. First attempt to start Dash:
Got a panel appearing with:
Unexpected Error
App.Event_Open
Delegate.Invoke
Application._CallFunctionWithExceptionHandling
REALbasic._RunFrameworkInitialization


And on executing 'EKM Dash":
q2 888: ./runekmdash
Unhandled exception: NilObjectException
Free Trial Timer Action

So: no way to start Dash. Hmmm.
--------------------
A request:

Please, for Linux, name the application EKMDash with no spaces.
And name the library directory 'EKMDashLibs' with no spaces.

Having spaces in names of any file or
directory is just a pointless pain (with
Linux).
Thanks.

Hello David, welcome to the forum and thank you for your questions.

1) What version of Dash are you using?
2) Are you using 32-bit or 64-bit linux?

We tested the same version of Ubuntu (14.04) and we did run into a problem at startup. We needed to install webkit with this command:

sudo apt-get install libwebkit-dev

However, the errors we receive do not match the same errors you are reporting. Please let us know if this gets you going.

Thanks,
