Post-processing Installation

Submitted by MIDaniel on Fri, 06/17/2016 - 15:46

Hello,

I am following the tutorial to install LIGGGHTS post processing :

When I run :
"./install.sh" in the LPP directory I get an error saying :
directory '/home/daniel/bin' not found
create directory or choose different install directory using the -p flag

How should I fix this issue ?

Thanks.

Best regards,
Daniel

Hi!

You can create the $HOME/bin folder or use another folder whit -p option

./install.sh -p /path/to/your/folder

Hello,

I tried that command but it says the directory could not be found, no matter what directory I put after -p.

Thanks.

Bets regards,

Can you give me more information? like your linux distribution.

could you use the full path? e.g. /home/your_user_here/folder_to_install_lpp

Hello,

I am using ubuntu.

Yes I used /home/daniel/foldername and it says folder not found.

Best regards,

So, could you run the next commands and give me the output? (copy and paste the result from your console)

mkdir -p ~/liggghts
ls install.sh
./install.sh -p ~/liggghts

Hello,

So the output after the first command is

mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/home/daniel/liggghts’: File exists

The second one gives

install.sh

and the last one gives

directory '/home/daniel/liggghts' not found
create directory or choose different install directory using the -p flag

I guess liggghts is the executable and thats why the file exists but is Not a Directory. Rename liggghts to lmp or use another folder name to install
