After reading through some topics on the subject ([Version 8 32-bit vision clients](http://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/version-8-32-bit-vision-clients/24658) and [Ignition 8 Client on Raspberry PI](http://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/ignition-8-client-on-raspberry-pi/24464/19)), I downloaded OpenJDK 64-Bit on my Raspberry PI to try to launch Ignition 8.0 Vision Client. New java version was sucessfully installed: ~$ java -version openjdk version “11.0.5” 2019-10-15 OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 11.0.5+10-post-Ubuntu-0ubuntu1.118.04) Open JDK 64-Bit Server VM But still, when I run the Vision Client Launcher icon, client doesn’t open and I get no error messages. Has anyone gone through this before or can give some insight on this? ---

Did you read those posts close enough to catch that there is an alternate shell script you have to download and run instead of using the launchers? ---

There’s a KB article now as well: [https://support.inductiveautomation.com/index.php?/Knowledgebase/Article/View/127/0/ignition-8-32-bit-vision-clients](https://support.inductiveautomation.com/index.php?/Knowledgebase/Article/View/127/0/ignition-8-32-bit-vision-clients) ---

I’ve found that a stock Buster install is sufficient, along with the downloaded script according to the KB article Kevin linked to. EDIT: Yes, Buster will work on the Pi3+. ---

Link that Kevin shared is dead now. Is there a catch all for this now? I am using an RPi 4b and launcher doesn’t work… ---

Granted, I am using the 64bit beta…is there a how to for that? Sorry for thread hijacking. Just seemed a better space to carry on the discussion. ---

It’s nearly the same as KB article, but you use a 64-bit JDK instead. The gateway will run on a RPi4 with a 64-bit OS but the Designer and Launchers will not. There’s no JavaFX or JXBrowser for ARM64 right now. Or at least, I think that’s still the status. This thread explains it a bit: [Vision on ARM64](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/vision-on-arm64/37954) ---

FWIW, I highly recommend using a RPi4 instead of a 3B+. They are much quicker, you will notice the difference on boot. If you PM me, I can get you a copy of an already set up 64-bit image. ---

Hi @cody.abbott I would be interested in taking a look at the image. I am attempting to run an Ignition vision client from a RPi4 with no success.
