General discussions (Q&As) / Re: Error Running X3DNA_setup script

« on: February 02, 2010, 12:18:19 pm »

"Is x3dna_setup executable? You may need to run "chmod u+x *" in X3DNA/bin/ directory."

-No it is non-executable.  I have tried chmod u+x and still no go.  Is it possible perl does not work with cygwin?


"What "which perl" outputs? If not /usr/bin/perl, you will need to change the first line in the script to reflect your local setting."

-I tried this with no change.

"What is the output of the following:

Code: Select all
echo $HOME
echo $SHELL
and the directory of you 3DNA installation?"

-No output...it just moves to the next command line
3dna is installed at C:documents and settingsjgkaupdesktop

"Does your Perl installation have modules "FindBin" and "File::Basename"? If not, you will need to have then installed."

-under perl/lib I found FindBin.pm
-under perl/lib/file/base i found basename.pm

Thanks for your help I will try to find somebody around that know more than I do about this stuff.

General discussions (Q&As) / Error Running X3DNA_setup script

Hello,

I am trying to install 3DNA on my Windows XP machine.  I downloaded the Cygwin binary and followed the instructions... when I get to the intruction that says type "x3dna_setup" nothing happens.  I then try to run it as a perl script and I get the following error messag:
"C:Documents and SettingsusernameDesktopX3DNAbin>perl.exe x3dna_setup
Use of uninitialized value $_[0] in substitution (s///) at C:/Perl/lib/File/Base
name.pm line 338.
fileparse(): need a valid pathname at x3dna_setup line 13"

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
