Can't install ASP.NET Core SDK on Mac - asp.net

I'm trying to install the ASP.NET Core 2.0 API on my MacBook Pro.
I've downloaded both dotnet-sdk-2.0.2-osx-x64.pkg and dotnet-sdk-2.0.2-osx-gs-x64.pkg and when I try to launch either of them an installer dialog is displayued that just reads:
Verifying "dotnet-sdk-2.0.2-osx-x64.pkg"
or
Verifying "dotnet-sdk-2.0.2-osx-gs-x64.pkg"
but nothing further happens.
I am running OS X El Capitan 10.11.6 and have all of the latest updates for Visual Studio installed.
I can't locate any further information or instructions for installation. Please help.

From https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/macos-prerequisites?tabs=netcore2x:
.NET Core 2.x is supported on the following versions of macOS: macOS
10.12 "Sierra" and later versions
Looks like it might be time to upgrade to Sierra. That represents a change from the 1.1 requirements, which supported El Capitan.
FWIW I'm running Sierra on a mid-2012 MacBook Pro with 8GB of RAM and it performs just fine.

Which Version of R to Install? [Running Big Sur 11.5.2 on a mid-2012 MBP]

According to cran.r-project.org, I should be using R 4.2.1 binary for macOS 11. The only thing is, I'm concerned about compatibility issues due to a mismatch between operating system and machine specs. I'm running macOS 11.5 on a mid-2012 MBP via a patcher (PatchedSur) which works quite nicely with most apps. However, the Cran Project website specifically states that R 4.2.1 binary for macOS 11 will not work on older Intel-based Macs.
Any idea on which version of R I should install if any? I'm beginning to think that perhaps I'm better off using RStudio Cloud (or even better--a newer machine).
Thanks!

What is the latest version of R known to run on windows xp?

As in R documentation:
The last version known to run on Windows 2000 was 2.12.2. Windows XP is no longer supported.
I tried to install R 3.4.3 on windows xp , but i faced problems when installing packages that i didn't face when installing them on Windows 7 system. I think it is safe to assume that R 2.12.2 runs on Windows xp as windows 2000, but does a version later than R 2.12.2 runs on windows xp also? what is the highest version ?
The latest version officially supported on XP was one version below, 3.4.2. Nevertheless, R as high as 3.6.0 installs and runs well on XP (though is not officially QA tested).
Starting from v.3.6.1, R is packed with InnoSetup v.6.0.0 (that means, installing on WinXP will not succeed and end up with an error "not valid Win32 application"). However, one may try to unpack the installer and deploy the files manually (still may help to launch R itself). Another option which may be useful is One Core API.
But... All this stuff is relevant if one is going to use plain R or integrated R environment in some old application. Many 3rd-party R packages require the most up-to-date versions of R, what will cause inconveniences on WinXP.

Aptana Studio 3.6.1 stand-alone version install error (Win XP and Win 7)

I have download Aptana Studio 3.6.1 stand-alone version and attempted to install in on two different computers. The first computer is a Windoxs XP, 32-bit. The second computer is a Windows 7, 64-bit. In each case, I get the same error message about 3-4 minutes into the install:
"Failed to correctly acquire installer_nodejs_windows.msi file: CRC error."
Any ideas on what I should try?
First I suggest you not to use Aptana Studio. It seems that developers are not actively developing it.
I had the same problem, but installing download nodejs solved my problem.
Happy Coding!

Creating a binary dependant on Qt 5

I created a development environment with Fedora 18 and Qt 5
When I compile my app it will be 64 bit, and depend on Qt 5. After some research it seems that will be a problem since Centos 6.x is still dependong on Qt 4.6, and Centos 5.x is dependant on earlier Qt, and I'm guessin Ubuntu has its own package limitations.
Is there a "safe" version of Qt I can compile against to ensure it runs everywhere? If not, how can I expect customers to run my program?
If you want to target Linux, then I would recommend using Qt 4.8 (available on most of the Linux Distros), forget about Qt 5 for a year or so. Hardly any Linux distro other than Ubuntu 13.04 and above comes with Qt 5.
Secondly, as far as compiling is considered, if you wish to target Linux distros other than Ubuntu and Fedora than never use Ubuntu or Fedora for compilation. These are bleeding edge Linux distros which include new libraries without much testing. You will not only face the problem of old Qt versions in some Linux distros as you will face the bigger problem of glibc (C library). Make sure the Linux distro you use for compilation has a minimum possible glibc version for Qt 4.8, otherwise even if any Linux distro has Qt 4.8 installed, but has a lower version of glibc, you app still won't run. You can check out distrowatch.com to find out glibc and Qt versions for any Linux Distro
Example:
I compiled my app on Ubuntu 12.04, Qt 4.8.1 with glibc v 2.16 (perhaps). I got a bug report than application does not run on CrunchBang which also has Qt 4.8.1 available but since it is a Debian unstable Linux Distro it uses glibc v2.13. Since that day I always compile my application on CrunchBang (very lighweight, you can Virtual Box for this) and hardly some one complains now.
As far as CentOs is considered, you will need to recompile your code on CentOS.
