[Pw_forum] Problem of XCrySDen launching

[Jeffrey De Lile]

Dear XCrySDen users and developers,

I am still struggling to install and launch xcrysden software. First I installed latest version of xcrysden : XCrySDen-pre1.5bbin-static
?However, when I am launching it GUI doesn't appear. Then? I reinstalled from source code xcrysden-1.5.53 and for the first time after ./xcrysden command GUI opens but I can't access to example files such as xsf etc. Then I rebooted the computer and then when I was relaunching the software it gives the following error. Anyway, I have already sent the XCrySDen-pre1.5bbin-static to trash.

./xcrysden: 163: .: Can't open /home/vampire/tools/XCrySDen-pre1.5bbin-static/scripts/xcLib.sh

Please someone help me how to solve this issue.?
Thanks in advance

Hi.
Do you need this version? You can use the compiled package (binary package).

Best regards.

Luis

Dear Luis,

Thanks for your reply. If I can solve this launching problem I don't need to go for another one. As far as I read installation of binary package is dofficult than this. Somehow I managed to install and use it for once but after reboot everything went up-side down. If you know any solution to this or have you seen solution to this please forward to me.

Dear XCrySDen users and developers,

actually this is not the mailing list for XCrySDen! it is here:
http://www.democritos.it/mailman/listinfo/xcrysden

It is of little help for you, but I also failed many times in
compiling, or even installing precompiled binaries, of XCrySDen:
there is invariably something that is missing. The only way I
found to have xcrysden installed was to update my PC to the
new stable debian version, then "apt-get install xcrysden":
it works great!

P.

As already said, this is not the XCD mailing list.

However, this looks like a possible conflict of variables between
different versions of xcrysden. Clean up the hidden file $HOME/.bashrc :
remove every possible reference to xcrysden, then reboot your computer
(or at least the session) and try again

cheers
