title: Install and run GAMS in Fedora
body: <p>I want to use GAMS in Fedora (23). I have read the information on how to install GAMS in Unix (<a href="https://www.gams.com/help/index.jsp?topic=%2Fgams.doc%2Fuserguides%2Fuserguide%2F_u_g__i_n_s_t_a_l_l.html&amp;cp=0_1" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.gams.com/help/index.jsp?topic=%2Fgams.doc%2Fuserguides%2Fuserguide%2F_u_g__i_n_s_t_a_l_l.html&amp;cp=0_1</a>).</p>
  
  <p>I have downloaded the file to a folder and successfully ran:
   <code>chmod -x linux_x64_64_sfx.exe</code></p>
  
  <p>I try to run <code>~/linux_x64_64_sfx.exe</code> but could not, then tried</p>
  
  <pre><code>./linux_x64_64_sfx.exe
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>which I think is the fedora command. I get the following message:</p>
  
  <pre><code>UnZipSFX 5.52 of 28 February 2005, by Info-ZIP (http://www.info-zip.org).

  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I typed A once, got a very big list of messages similar to the ones below:</p>
  
  <pre><code>inflating: gams24.7_linux_x64_64_sfx/getNAnan.m  
    inflating: gams24.7_linux_x64_64_sfx/libgrbcclib64.so  
  finishing deferred symbolic links:
    gams24.7_linux_x64_64_sfx/libcplex.so -&gt; libcplex1263.so
    gams24.7_linux_x64_64_sfx/libgurobi.so -&gt; libgurobi.so.6.5.2
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Then nothing happend. I tried again running <code>./linux_x64_64_sfx.exe</code> got the same message, this time I typed in N, and got short message:</p>
  
  <pre><code>gams24.7_linux_x64_64_sfx/libcplex.so exists and is a symbolic link.

  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And nothing else happened.</p>
  
  <p>How can I run it? </p>
