Recently I tried to install MS5.5 on my red hat linux machine and encountered this:

Aborting Materials Studio installation.
I've searched online for the failure's reason. Someone says this is due to old version of JRE. However, I have also heard that old version MS, say 5.0, may not operate correctly with the latest version of JRE. So is the installation failure a problem of JRE, or something else? If it is really the problem of JRE, is there any way to install MS 5.5 while keep MS 5.0 on the same linux machine? Since I already have MS 5.0 on my computer, do I have to install license package again?
Thank you for your answer!
