All software installed on the RDP, as well as its configuration, should be recorded on this page!

Base installation

Ed installed the following during the build:

  • ActiveState Perl 5.26.3
  • ArcGIS Desktop (instructions at http://answers.library.georgetown.edu/faq/247307)
  • ArcGIS Reader (ESU196456098)
    • Python 2.7 (installed with ArcGIS in C:\Python27\ArcGIS10.6)
  • CUDA 10.1
  • Google Chrome
  • Komodo 9 IDE (licence is E:\mcnair\installs\Komodo-IDE-9-Windows-S19344C4830A.exe)
  • .NET 3.5 (install from media, see instructions [1])
  • Matlab 2018a (instructions at http://uis.georgetown.edu/computers/purchase/software/matlab/install)
  • Office 2019
  • STATA 15MP (24 core, network edition, 2 licenses)
  • SDC Platinum
  • Textpad 8
  • Visual Studio 2018 Community Edition
    • Anaconda 3 & Python 3.6 (installed with Microsoft Visual Studio, in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\Shared\)

Python and R

Ed installed additional new versions of:

  • Python 2.7
  • Anaconda 3 (with the add to path option)
  • R 3.5.3

Afterwards C:\Python27, C:\Python27\Lib and C:\Program Files\R\R-3.5.3\bin\x64 were added to the path (search "edit system environment variables"). C:\Python27\python.exe was copied to C:\Python27\python2.exe and C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\python.exe was copied to python3.exe.

Users wanting to run python can therefore run any of the following:

python -- runs python 3.7 in C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3
python3 -- runs python 3.7 in C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3
python2 --  runs python 2.7 in C:\Python27
py -3 -- runs python 3.7 in C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3
py -2 --  runs python 2.7 in C:\Python27

For the old RDP configuration, see notes on Python on the RDP. There was also a GIT server on the old RDP, which hosted our Software Repository. All of the projects in the Software Repository Listing are on the E drive. We may install a new GIT server at some point.

Adding libraries

If you add a library or package to a programming language, for instance through pip or manually, record what you did here!
