Installing Dolphin {anty} on Linux/Ubuntu

Before installing ⬇️

First you need to download the latest version from the official website

To install an anti-detect on any Linux-like system, you need to

open the terminal by right-clicking on the desktop and selecting "Open in terminal" or using the CTRL+ALT+T key combination.

Commands in the terminal 🤖

Next, you need to write the following commands in the terminal:

sudo apt update

This command updates the package lists on a Linux system.
The packages themselves are not updated, the list is just updated.

sudo apt upgrade

Updates all packages installed on the system (as by the previously updated list) for which there are updates to the latest versions found in the repositories in use.

sudo apt install fuse

FUSE (file system in user space) is an interface for user space programs to export the file system to the Linux kernel. In simple words, it is a necessary utility for the program to work. 😉 Read more

Start installation 🚀

Use the cd command to navigate to the folder where the downloaded antivirus file is located.

cd Downloads/

With this command inside the terminal we go to the folder where our file is located, the path and the folder may be different because of the language, or because of the Linux distribution you have. (for example, the folder may be called Downloads).

The next thing to check is to enter this command:

ls

This command lists the files in the folder we navigated to, the dolphin-anty-linux .appimage file should be listed there.

chmod +x dolphin-anty-linux-x86_64-latest.AppImage

This chmod command adds execute (run) permissions to the file.

After that we can move on to the main.

./dolphin-anty-linux-x86_64-latest.AppImage

The ./filename command launches the file and the DolphinAnty window will appear.

You can then run it not through the terminal, but simply by clicking on the file.

Since the appImage application format is not an installer, but an "application image" essentially a portable version of the program.

Notes:

When you enter the file name, you can enter only "dolp" or some initial part, then press Tab and the name itself will be written in full (if you went to the folder with this file through the cd command).

You can also rename the file to dolphin.appimage for ease of input.

If any of the commands gives you the message that you do not have enough rights, try repeating the command, but at the beginning of the command insert sudo. (will require an administrator password after entering the command)
You can also look at it visually: https://youtu.be/Mt21A_VPUS0

After executing the commands, the program can be run as a normal file.

Important!!! Ubuntu version must be 22.04 or higher (also other distributions must correspond to the same version).
And libc library must be at least version 2.28.

If these commands did not work, then:

  • Check if the commands were entered correctly.

  • On some distributions it may not install completely and may generate an error in the terminal:
    error while loading shared libraries: libnss3.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
    You should try sudo apt install -y libnss3
    After that you can safely run it through the terminal as per the doc above.

  • Check if this file has permissions

  • Check what server you are downloading updates and running the source code, if the server RU (set automatically), and your geo for example Ukraine, then may not load updates and commands do not work, in this case, you need to change the geo in the settings, as shown in the screenshot and redo all the commands

  • If you want to work with automation on Linux, you need to grant permissions to run chromedriver on a Linux system. (briefly, more below).
    This is a Permission Error, it occurs when Python tries to perform certain operations (in this case, running chromedriver) for which it does not have the proper permissions.

    Error:

    PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/home/np_1961/Downloads/chromedriver119/chromedriver/chromedriver-linux'

    It says that Python does not have permissions to execute the chromedriver-linux file, which is located at the specified path.

    To fix this problem, you need to change the permissions of the chromedriver-linux file so that Python can use it. This can be done using the chmod command in the terminal.

    Solution:

    Open a terminal.

    Navigate to the folder with the executable file using the command cd /home/np_1961/Downloads/chromedriver119/chromedriver/.

    Run the chmod +x chromedriver-linux command.

    This will make the chromedriver-linux file executable, and a Python script should then be able to run it. If you still get problems, make sure the user has read and write permissions to that directory.
