Installing Codebeamer

I am attempting to install CB 2.1.0.2 on ubuntu  and have done (hopefully) all of the pre-requisite steps.  When I login as the "codebeamer" user and run the installer, I get the following error:

 

 

sh MED-61402-CD-330_2-1-0-2_Linux.bin 
Creating directory setup
Verifying archive integrity... 100% MD5 checksums are OK. All good.
Uncompressing codebeamer 100% 

Executing codebeamer setup...

Please enter the Installation
Directory (/home/codebeamer/CB-2.1.0.2): 
Installing codebeamer into directory: /home/codebeamer/CB-2.1.0.2
Cleaning up setup folder
Incorrect installation directory.

 

 

Any guidance on this?

Okay so the shell debugging helped.  It turns out the `cpio` command was not installed.

I checked and it seems ok to me:

Can you please let me know the permissions and ownership of the installer?

Here are the permissions and another execution of the installer:

Are there any other prerequisites that might be missing? Unfortunately the installation instructions are scattered and have different information (e.g. one place says to install Java 8 and another says Java 17). But I couldn't find anything else that is required.
