how to install SALOME on ubuntu 9.10

Hello
I extracted the tar.gz file to the desktop and in the readme notes it says to type ./runinstall in the terminal but when i type that i get
"bash: ./runinstall: No such file or directory"

I dont know what to do, im new to the ubuntu system and needed to install it so i can use SALOME.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

It is ./runInstall and not ./runinstall

Notice the capital "I".

Cheers.

Bitten by (a) camel (case)

A smart trick is to use the [tab] to complete commands ... then you usually won't run into typing errors. You could then just type " ./ru " and then press [tab], and the terminal would complete the rest, for you then just to hit Enter.

there are some about the installation of SALOME on Ubuntu

Hope those help.

I have completed Salome 5.1.3 on ubuntu 9.10 64 bit . I use you notes as reference.

A summary can be found at this address.

Hello!

I followed the link

for the installation of the Salome_5.1.3 in ubuntu 9.10 64 bit.

The installation finished well without errors, just the libBLSurf  is missing.

However if I try to lanch salome:

 ~/salome_5.1.3

$ source env_products.sh

$ runSalome

I obtain:

Configure parser: Warning : could not find user configuration file

runSalome running on simone-desktop

Any idea?

Simo, Your problem looks somewhat similar to: http://www.salome-platform.org/forum/forum_9/992311600

I guess they didn't fix it.

I created this simple script:

#!/bin/bash
source /opt/salome_4.1.4/env_products.sh
source /opt/salome_4.1.4/KERNEL_4.1.4/salome.sh
/opt/salome_4.1.4/KERNEL_4.1.4/bin/salome/runSalome

Make it executable and launch it, and it will launch Salome (I use it on a Mandriva 64bit).

You have to adapt it to your paths of course. Hope this help.

Regards.

Thanks for the info.

I can't understand why, but I red it can run in ubuntu 9.10 64bit.

Enigma!!!

I tried with:

source ~/salome_5.1.3/KERNEL_SRC_5.1.3/salome.sh
~/salome_5.1.3/KERNEL_SRC_5.1.3/bin/runSalome

I got the same error message.

I think you have to insert in the script the entire path of the commands.

Same error!

#!/bin/bash
source /home/simone/salome_5.1.3/env_products.sh
source /home/simone/salome_5.1.3/KERNEL_SRC_5.1.3/salome.sh
/home/simone/salome_5.1.3/KERNEL_SRC_5.1.3/bin/runSalome

However ~/ means /home/simone/.

In the wersion 5.1.3 the folder salome in

/KERNEL_4.1.4/bin/salome/runSalome

is not present.So I used:/KERNEL_SRC_5.1.3/bin/runSalome

Please can you check SHELL=/bin/bash with env

And follow the README.

 To set SALOME environment just type in the terminal window:

               cd <KERNEL_ROOT_DIR>

               source salome.sh

          or

               cd <KERNEL_ROOT_DIR>

               source salome.csh

          where <KERNEL_ROOT_DIR> is KERNEL binaries directory, e.g.

          KERNEL_5.1.3 for the 5.1.3 version.

     2.2. Launching of SALOME

          After you set environment you can start SALOME. Go to the KERNEL

          module's binaries directory (KERNEL_5.1.3/bin/salome for the version

          5.1.3) by using of 'cd' command and then type:

               runSalome [<parameters>]

Hi wwiki,

I needed to create the script due to the fact that the "source" commands were forgotten at each reboot of the operating system.

This is surely true for 4.1.4, but to be honest I didn't test on 5.1.3 to see if it is unnecessary now.

• Please can you check SHELL=/bin/bash with env

I don't understand; env is a program? where can I find it?

• To set SALOME environment just type in the terminal window:

                  cd <KERNEL_ROOT_DIR>

                 source salome.sh

            or

                 cd <KERNEL_ROOT_DIR>

                 source salome.csh

            where <KERNEL_ROOT_DIR> is KERNEL binaries directory, e.g.

            KERNEL_5.1.3 for the 5.1.3 version.

The only kernel dir I have is KERNEL_SCR_5.1.3 under the installation directory salome_5.1.3 and the file salome.sh was not executable. I used chmod for this.

• Launching of SALOME

I didn't have this path:KERNEL_5.1.3/bin/salome

I obtain:

riga 24: /bin/salome/envSalome.py: Nessun file o directory

Thanks

Cacciatorino ,

For 4.1.4 you set your env.

For 5.1.3 you have to set your env , but no with env of 4.1.4 .

This comes with shell concept .

this is obvious, I just copied and pasted the old script for 4.1.4, and assumed the the user was smart enough to understand and modify it as needed.

In this way?

SHELL=/bin/bash

source /home/simone/salome_5.1.3/env_products.sh

source /home/simone/salome_5.1.3/KERNEL_SRC_5.1.3/salome.sh

/home/simone/salome_5.1.3/KERNEL_SRC_5.1.3/bin/runSalome

Same error.

I had a similar problem and found following. I don't know exactly what it does, but it has worked for me.

Sorry, this apparently worked only temporarily. I have the error again. 

Fabian

in a terminal => go to the file directory where the .tgz is

su (or maybe "sudo")

(password)

alien - k Salome_5.1.3_32bits.tgz

(wait a few minutes)

alien make in the file directory a new package named : salome-5.1.3-32bits_1-1_all.deb

klic on the package for install

the package is installed in : /Salome_5.1.3

you can move the file in the /opt file directory

for run salome, a simple shortcut => /opt/Salome_5.1.3/SALOME5/V5_1_3/runSalome-debianForSalome (valid the case "run in a terminal")

I have do it in LinuxMint 7 and im think  it is the same for Ubuntu

i made an icon for the shortcut.

Sorry for my very bad english but i am french.
