1.  I was sourcing /sw/bin/init.csh, so that wasn't the problem...but:

2. I did find the problem (at least for the precompiled version from UC Santa Cruz): For some reason "sudo ccp4i" gave the error message, but just "ccp4i" (without the sudo) worked OK. (Although I thought the first time you launched ccp4i you were supposed to do it using sudo...??). Anyway, I'm good (although peeved at my continuing inability to master sudo. I miss living on the edge with root).

3. I didn't try to debug the binaries I got from the ccp4 site, since I now have a working package. However, Iain Kerr kindly provided this info, which may prove useful to other small brains out there:

ccp4.setup is in ccp4-6.0.2/bin...it used to be in include..is that your problem ?

Also, there's no ccp4i folder....the ccp4i binary is in bin/ also.


Note to the long-suffering folks at the secret underground world headquarters of ccp4: Small brain or no, I spent a lot of time looking around for some clue as to how to complete the install for the ccp4 package, to no avail; a README file to accompany the installer would not be unwelcome...

Thanks,

Pat

You need to run

source /sw/bin/init.sh

if you use bash or zsh

or

source /sw/bin/init.csh

if you use tcsh.

this will automatically set up the environment variables and then it will do what you want it to (which is to set up the ccp4 environment according to whichever shell you might be using).

1. I tried to install Bill Scott's precompiled ccp4 on an intel mac running OS X 10.5. When attempting launch ccp4i, I receive this error message:

/sw/share/xtal/ccp4-6.0.2/ccp4i/bin/ccp4i: line 4 /bltwish: no such file or directory

Typing "which bltwish" returns /sw/bin/bltwish, which jibes with the definition of $CCP4I_TCLTK, so I'm not sure where the problem is...

2. Pfui. So next I tried jettisoning the apt-get installation, and instead used the installer downloaded from the ccp4 site (ccp4-6.0.2-osx-i386.dmg.gz). This goes swimmingly, until I actually try to do something. Commands like "ccp4i" or "mtzdump" aren't recognized, so I go looking for the ccp4.setup file; but it's not there. Huh? Also, there's no folder named ccp4i, even though this install is supposed to include it...

It's Friday, and I'm at the nadir of my weekly brain function, so perhaps some kind soul will tell me where I'm going astray.

Thanks,

Pat
