Re: [Sugar-devel] Error running socialcalc on sugar live cd

2009-09-29 Thread vijit singh
Hello Tomeu and all,

I just got the chance to try installing socialcalc on the sugar live cd and
I have been able to install it properly. Here is the review of the process,
might be helpful for other activities also in case anybody faces a similar
problem--

1. Actually, the error which was coming earlier was because of the
permission being denied by sugar. So, in order to install any activity one
is supposed to use the sudo command to have super user access. I mean, the
following command would lead to above mentioned errors---

sugar-install-bundle SocialCalcActivity.xo

However, using sudo will resolve the issue--

sudo sugar-install-bundle SocialCalcActivity.xo

2. However, I was unable to install the activity directly from the journal,
when we click on the activity bundle in the journal, nothing actually
happens.


Hi,

 can you check you can write to /home/olpc/Activities?


Yes, we can write but by using sudo command.


 Regards,

 Tomeu

 Yes, we can write but by using sudo command.

The directory /home/olpc/Activities should be writable by user olpc.
That would explain your trouble with installing activities. The
question remains, why was the ownership/write permissions of
/home/olpc/Activities improperly set?

Hello Walter and all,

Yes, they should be in the live cd also as they are writable in the normal
xo and the sugar emulator as well.

 question remains, why was the ownership/write permissions of
 /home/olpc/Activities improperly set?


Well, I didn't changed  any  settings ( I think sugar doesn't permits an
user or even an administrator to change such settings on the sugar system).
So, I think these permissions are set by default in the live cd by the
rainbow system. I think some more related person would be able to explain
better.

 Hello all,
 Some of my co-developers are facing some issues running socialcalc on sugar

 a photo log with this mail. Kindly give your suggestions about what could be
 the possible reasons. Also, has anybody faced any such problem while running
 any activity on the sugar live cd.
 I would also be checking it myself on the sugar live cd today, am
 downloading the live cd iso file with my poor net connection currently.

Kindly ignore this mail if you have already received a similar one. There
seems to be some problem  posting on the sugar mailing list due to the
attached image. So, here is the link to the image--
