I have downloaded and extracted the packet tracer file, then I used this command as root



chmod +x install


then I ran (as root)



./install 


Then I used this command



./set_ptenv.sh


but whenever I run this command



packettracer 


it just doesn't start



This is what i get

  • I think you should not run CPT as root. Try to run packettracer as normal user.

It seems that you are using CPT 7.1 on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.



I have found a nice guide to run CPT.



Steps:



  1. Install CPT as you have already done.


  2. Download correct version of library libicu52 (for example for amd64)



    cd /tmp
    wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/i/icu/libicu52_52.1-3ubuntu0.8_amd64.deb
    sudo dpkg -i libicu52_52.1-3ubuntu0.8_amd64.deb


3 . Launch CPT with the packettracer.



Update: this procedure works with CPT 7.1.1 too.
