Trying to install pycharm on a PI with Raspian and get this error "server vm is only supported on armv7+"

In terminal I just put in the path to pycharm.sh

Model of Raspberry Pi

[rpdom]

Which model Pi? Only the Pi 2 has an ARMv7. All the others have ARMv6.

all I can see is a 2011.12 on the pcb itself -- can I see hardware info in raspian?

Which model Pi? Only the Pi 2 has an ARMv7. All the others have ARMv6.

and Raspian is still on 6?

lx panel 0 7 .1 is all I see when I try "about" info -- where do i see the raspbian version?

As previously discussed -

Download: http://download.jetbrains.com/python/py ... 0.4.tar.gz

Unpack it using these instructions: https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/downl ... p?os=linux

That works for me on an RPi Model 2 B running the mid-Feb 2015 version of Raspbian.

I have.

All you do is point to the pycharm.sh file in terminal after unpacking right? I do and then get that error.

Raspbian was specifically built for v6 (and above).
You can find which CPU you have using a terminal

Code: Select all

rpdom@raspi:~$ grep model /proc/cpuinfo
model name	: ARMv6-compatible processor rev 7 (v6l)

That shows I have an ARMv6 CPU on my Pi, which is a model B ver 1.0.
On Pi 2B you will get something like

Code: Select all

model name : ARMv7 Processor rev 5 (v7l)
model name : ARMv7 Processor rev 5 (v7l)
model name : ARMv7 Processor rev 5 (v7l)
model name : ARMv7 Processor rev 5 (v7l)

(as there are four ARMv7 CPU cores on the Pi2)

How do I get the raspian version -- don't see an "about" or anything

[ghans]

Code: Select all

lsb_release -a

also interesting :

Code: Select all

cat /boot/issue.txt

[mmkw43]

It says arm v6 compatable rev7 (v6l)

[ghans]

Well , there you have it. PyCharm will simply not run on your "old" model B1 or B+1 .

Confirmed.

If I try the same download/unpack/execute steps on an 'original' RPi Model B I get:

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ ./pycharm-community-4.0.4/bin/pycharm.sh
Error occurred during initialization of VM
Server VM is only supported on ARMv7+ VFP

Ok -- sorry guys -- guess I must have bought this is older than I thought. Think it must be the one I bought where I said "gotta get one of those" and it sat in my shop.

Oh well -- my aplogies. I'll have to see what the model1's capabilities are and use it for that.

[mmkw43]

Hey -- who has the new PI2 in stock in the US -- are they available?

[mmkw43]

nevermind -- mcm just bought one
