3DNA on Cygwin not working
« on: March 17, 2017, 04:30:59 am »
Hi,

I am trying to instal 3DNA on windows 10 using Cygwin.
I was following your setup instructions but I was not successfull yet.

In attachment you can see commands I made and the result I got.

Could you please give me an advice how to continue?

Thank you,
Rastislav Galvanek

Hi,

Sorry to hear your trouble in getting 3DNA up and running on Window 10 using Cygwin. The error seems to be related to the environment variable X3DNA being set to the bin directory by mistake. Try to remove /bin from the end, as shown below, and report back if that works.

Code: [Select]
export X3DNA=/cygdrive/c/3DNA/x3dna-v2.3
# no /bin at the end

Best regards,

Xiang-Jun

Hi Rastislav,

Thanks for your response.

Could you replace the '/cygdrive/c/' prefix with 'C:' for X3DNA and PATH, as suggested by the x3dna_setup script? See below:

Quote
export X3DNA='C:/3DNA/x3dna-v2.3'
export PATH='C:/3DNA/x3dna-v2.3/bin':$PATH

Have a try and report back how it goes.

Xiang-Jun
