Thanks for your very quick responses. It seems that the package is not
being updated. I couldn't find a way of attaching file to the reply so
I am providing a URL to a screenshot:

Could the package you intended be mpir-1.2.p4? There is such a package
listed at http://www.sagemath.org/packages/standard/ but I couldn't
locate mpir-1.2.p2.
Thanks,
AG

Thanks. I tried solution 2. It took about 25 minutes to complete.
Unfortunately, I am still getting the same errors.
That's *extremely* surprising. It makes absolutely no sense to me. I
wonder if there was some error. Could you try *just*
sage -f mpir-1.2.p2
and confirm that it completes without any error at the end?
William
I did shutdown
VMPlayer and restart it.

Hi,
I cannot get Sage notebook to run. When I load Sage, VMPlayer starts and
I
get to login screen. The problem I encounter depends on which option I
choose here:
If I type 'notebook', I am asked to open Firefox to a certain IP address.
But within a few seconds, the text scrolls away and I am back at login
prompt. And Firefox cannot open the website mentioned. If I try to do
this
again by typing notebook again, the text scrolls very rapidly (compared
to
the few seconds I had the first time) so I can hardly read anything and
I am
back at login prompt (screenshot 1).
If I login using login and sage as username and passwords and then type
notebook, I get the error message: cannot create notebook.log:
Permission
denied (screenshot 2)
I have sometimes gotten another line following this line with message
containing words: broken pipe
If as suggested by Professor Stein in a previous thread, I type manage to
login and then type sage, I get the error message: line 199: 3469 illegal
instruction sage-ipython $@ -i
The number displayed before illegal instruction changes everytime but is
always a four-digit number. (see screenshot 3)
You have old hardware so you have two options:
(1) wait until we provide a vmware image that can work on your old
hardware,
(2) Rebuild from source the two spkg's that are causing the illegal
instruction error.
Actually, (2) is easy and will work, but just takes a little while.
To do (2), do the following:
(1) at the login prompt type manage, then at the prompt type sudo su.
(2) type sage -f mpir-1.2.p2 atlas-3.8.3.p3
Step (2) requires that you have an internet connection, and you should
*expect* it to take about 1 hour (it is 100% automatic though).
William
I would highly appreciate any help in this regard.
