Hi Kay
Thanks again and for more insight and feedback on the Qt installation. Reply in blue text below. Take care, Rob -----Original Message----- From: Kay Diederichs <kay.diederi...@uni-konstanz.de> Sent: Friday, September 16, 2022 4:11 PM To: CCP4BB@JISCMAIL.AC.UK; Robert Gampe <rga...@reactivebio.com> Subject: Re: ccp4 installation problem ALERT! Outside Org Hi Robert, you are welcome. It seems that you own (rgampe.rgampe) the directory /software/ccp4-8.0 . You should revert the ownerships in /software/ccp4-8.0 from root.root with sudo chown -R rgampe.rgampe /software/ccp4-8.0 so that in the future you don't need sudo for updates. The above fix is along the lines Andrey provided on Aug 30. As for your installation. ccp4um switches to admin mode if it finds any single file inside ccp4 that does not belong to you. In the admin mode, it check if all files belong to the same user as the top ccp4-8.0 directory and changes ownership of all files that belong to different user. If ccp4 originally belonged to your account, not to root account, you can repair installation from command line using sudo chown -R xxxx:yyyy ccp4-8.0 arpwarp_8.0. Your real problem seems to be the Qt installation; I think that the error message qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found. This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem. prevents the graphics of the CCP4 programs from working properly. I have no idea, though, if your Qt is too new or too old or somehow corrupted. I've never heard of POP_OS or the like so maybe it's just not compatible with CCP4. I will definitely have to learn more on what the Qt is and how to fix or update GOOGLE: Qt Creator is a cross-platform integrated development environment (IDE) built for the maximum developer experience.. The POP_OS! system 76 is built upon Ubuntu and comes with a ready to use desktop. https://pop.system76.com/ Pop!_OS is an operating system for STEM and creative professionals who use their computer as a tool to discover and create.
