Running Mathematica
Make sure you have /astro/local/bin in your PATH or run module load mathematica
Text mode: math
Graphics mode: mathematica
Running the first time:
When running Mathematica the first time, you may see a "Activate online" screen.
This means that you need to install a mathpass file pointing to our license server. The easiest way to do this is to run /astro/local/bin/mathematica_init. This will set it up for you.
Note to MacOS users
If you get the following error message when running mathematica on a linux machine and displaying over X11 on your MacOS machine:
libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast
run the following command and restart X11:
defaults write org.macosforge.xquartz.X11 enable_iglx -bool true
Licenses
We only have 3 mathematica licenses, so please quit mathematica when you are not actively using it.
