[esp-r] Re: ubuntu installation

[Jon Hand]

Note that the ESRU download site includes the ligfortran libraries.  For Ubuntu
is it probably easier to use the package manager to install this (one of the
really nice things about Ubuntu).

That was the problem... thanks

For the record, in UBUNTU(guest) over XP(host) with VirtualBox I did:
           sudo ./esp-r_v11.9_linux_precomp.run
and the installation worked, then:
           export PATH=$PATH:/opt/esru/bin:/opt/esru/esp-r/bin
after that if I typed:
           esp-r or prj
I got the prompt:
          "error while loading shared libraries: libgfortran.so.1: cannot open shared library: No such file or directory"
so with:
          sudo dpkg -i "package_name.deb"
I installed the packages:
          gcc-4.1-base_4.1.2-21ubuntu1
          gcc-4.3-base_4.3.2-1ubuntu11
          libgfortran3_4.3.2-1ubuntu11
          libgfortran1_4.1.2-21ubuntu1

And finally worked...

thanks for your help and time

Dear Victor,
probably the causes  in order of occurence are:
1. You are not using root permissions, that is why the executables cannot be installed in ../bin.
2. You have not used an editor to change your PATH variable, as described in e.g. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=650327
Hope I am helping.
If the problem continues you can simply download and install the development version, though that is a little harder.

Hi,
I'm having some trouble with the .run file in Linux. I'm following the installation notes.
First, with the esp-r_v11.9_linux_precomp.run in the tmp folder, and after changing the permissions with chmod a+x ./esp-r_v11.9_linux_precomp.run in the terminal the installation starts without problems. But after accepting the licence terms and starting either the GTK or the X11 installation it says "cannot access /opt/esru/esp-r/bin: No such file or directory" that the PATH in the .batch_profile files should include :/opt/esru/esp-r/bin:/opt/esru/esp-r/bin

Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong? Thanks
