Three step procedure to run the course timetabling solver alone (no web services)

1. Download the most recent distribution, some configuration files, and some instances.

   I will assume later on that:

   1. you extracted the main distribution into unitime,
   2. that you copied the instances and configuration files to a new subdirectory unitime/instances.
   3. One of the instances you downloaded is pu-fal07-ms.xml. One of the configuration files is default.cfg.
2. Change into the directory "unitime/instances"
3. Execute java -Xmx512m -jar ../solver/cpsolver-all-1.1.jar default.cfg pu-fal07-ms.xml ./output/pu-fal.

I recommend using sun java. I had some problems with gij and manifests.

You should get output similar to the following:

On my machine, a dual core 2.66Ghz Intel CPU, it takes approximately 30 min to finish.
