Script path problem on Tiger 10.4.11

Hi,
I just came across a problem about scripting path I think.
Now the applications located in /Applications folder on my MBP can not run their scripts properly.
For example, Gimp has a script to detect and launch X11, but the script can not be loaded in the correct path setting.
Therefore, even X11 has been installed it only shows X11 is required.
I checked console log and got some error messages like:
/Applications/Gimp.app/Contents/Resources/script: line 1: dirname: command not found
/Applications/Gimp.app/Contents/Resources/script: line 22: rm: command not found
/Applications/Gimp.app/Contents/Resources/script: line 23: mkdir: command not found
/Applications/Gimp.app/Contents/Resources/script: line 24: ln: command not found
/Applications/Gimp.app/Contents/Resources/script: line 31: ps: command not found
/Applications/Gimp.app/Contents/Resources/script: line 31: grep: command not found
/Applications/Gimp.app/Contents/Resources/script: line 38: mkdir: command not found
/Applications/Gimp.app/Contents/Resources/script: line 40: rm: command not found
/Applications/Gimp.app/Contents/Resources/script: line 41: open-x11: command not found ...
It looks like a misconfiguration of path, but I did not change my setting during these days.
Further, it affects all of the applications located in /Applications folder.
Has someone encounter the same problem?
Any idea?
TIA.

Hi Chien-Ming Lai, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Do Applications in OSX work from that Location?
What Permissions are on X11?

  • Path problem in windows os

    Dear friends,
    some time I meet a strange class path problem under windows enviroment. that is, the class path uses "/" to splite directory while not "\". so java will report error message like "NoClassFoundError: com/boland/...". I think there should be a way to adjust this environment problem. but I don't know how to set this. I will greatly appreciate if you happen to know this and let me know.
    Best wishes,
    Sam

    You reported an error in a package statement or reference. This is nothing to do with the OS folder structure per se, altho that is how it is implemented on a given platform like windows. Classpath statements are NOT platform independent, due to path separator issues. You should not use a system-wide classpath variable anyway, as this is really quite bad practice. Instead, create a run script for you program, and put the -cp switch in there. In any case, you should be referencing packages (separated by dots) in there anyway, not actual paths.

  • Path problem for "Load VRML File.vi" in EXE

    Hello,
    The new integrated 3d Picture Control functionality in LabVIEW 8.20 is amazing.  It is a really easy to use implementation of OpenGL.  I've discovered one bug/issue when building VI's to an exe that includes the 3d Picture Control:
    If "Load VRML File.vi" is used, in the executable, you will encounter a LabVIEW Error 7 due to a path problem in the following vi:
    NI_3D Picture Control.lvlib:Load VRML File.vi->NI_3D Picture Control.lvlib:NI_Old 3D Toolkit.lvlib:Read WRL file.vi->NI_3D Picture Control.lvlib:NI_Old 3D Toolkit.lvlib:Initialize.vi
    The File Not Found problem will prevent the vrml file from loading.  Navigating down into the subVI's of the "Load VRML File.vi" shown above easily reveals the problem.  I've included a screenshot of the diagram of that VI.  The relative
    path resulting from the double "Strip Path" operation is not valid
    in the executable.  I'm not sure where that "definitions" file resides
    in the runtime deployment or if it's even included, so fixing the path to account for the differences in the exe vs. development environment path is not an option.   I'm also usually very hesitant to make any mods to anything in vi.lib.
    For the development environment, the "definitions" file can be found at: [LabVIEW 8.2 dir]\vi.lib\picture\3D Picture Control
    The easy fix is to include the "definitions" file in the same directory as your exe when you build.  Fortuitously, this does the trick because the first strip path gives the path to the exe and then the second strip path results in the path to the directory where the exe resides.
    Hopefully NI will fix this path reference properly in future revisions.
    Enjoy!

  • Path problem when moving from Mac to PC

    Adobenoob wrote:
    Hi,
    I'm trying to move our Adobe InDesign installation from Mac to PC, but I ran into a path problem. A lot of our publications/documents in Adobe InDesign have linked to pictures in the filesystem (Windows 2008 R2 server). It goes like this:
    DTP:Produktbilleder:0893ny:0893_467+468_05_Agrp frit_.tif
    And is linked like this directly from InDesign.
    The actual path is:
    /Volumes/DTP/Produktbilleder/0893ny/0893_467+468_05_Agrp frit_.tif
    On the PC I cannot use that path notation and have to go like this:
    F:\DTP\Produktbilleder\0893ny\0893_467+468_05_Agrp frit_.tif
    When the publication/document in InDesign have the Mac link "hardcoded" the PC path will not work.
    Is there a relatively easy way to get the InDesign on PC to use the Mac link or does one have to change all the "hardcoded" links in the publications/documents?
    I hope you understand my question - don't hesitate to ask for more info.
    Best Regards
    Brian

    Hi,
    I have just tested the function - and it seems that the files have to be in the same folder. It is not recursive as I see it. And since we have tens of thousand of pictures in thousands of different folders it does not seem to work.
    Any other suggestions?
    Regards

  • Path problem during  Change of Original

    Hello,
    I am facing path problem while changing the Original file in a DIR.
    let say i created a DIR x and attached file a.txt from c:\ and  saved the DIR.
    Now if i use cv02 and select a original for change the popup window comes with data carrier and original file path  the path is shown as c:\a.txt which is actual original path.
    if i click on continue it is opening the c:\a.txt files and  changes are done on the original file on my pc.
    This way my original file is changed on pc and in DIR also.
    I want to know how to avoid this?.
    Regards
    Shiv

    That is why they call it document "Management".  The Original File is in the "Vault" where it can be managed, not on the desktop.  If you want to protect/save the file on your desktop, set the flag in the config of the workstation application to not allow "rename" of the temporary file.  You are just attempting to circumvent the intended design of the system. What you should really do is set the flag to "delete" the file after check-in.

    First of all, to troubleshoot the problem it would help to put some filepath indicators at each point so that you can see what is going on. Also, in your exe having an error dialog "Simple Error Handler.vi" to let you know what LabVIEW didn't like in the exe.
    Now, when you run a top level ("Main.vi") and use the "Current VI's Path " in the development mode it returns <Filepath>\"Current path"\Main.vi. So stripping once will get you to  <Filepath>\"Current path" .    Now if you make it into an exe the "Current VI's Path" returns <Filepath>\"Current path"\"Name.exe"\Main.vi so you are "nested" one deeper.
    I use the following construct to determine whether the vi is being used as in the development environment or as an exe, the parse the path accordingly, although in this instance it is used to supply different directory names to a little more complex file system.

  • New Problems in Tiger Classic (or iMac G5)

    Hi folks,
    I have the last version of Managing Your Money ever released and we have always been able to use it in Classic without any trouble at all. However, since we got Mac OS 10.4 (or maybe is was since we got the iMac G5; since they were nearly simultaneous, I'm not sure) MYM and/or Classic seems to display symptoms of a memory or other resource leak. That is, every window I open takes longer to open than the last one. Eventually, the program becomes practically unusable and I have to restart. If I keep using it without restarting, the iMac will eventually freeze and the force quit window won't even appear.
    We have never had this problem on previous versions of OS X, nor on previous models of iMac (we've used OS X with classic on two different G3 iMacs and a G4 iMac).
    Does anyone know of any differences that should be significant? Are there any Classic extensions that are known to have problems in Tiger or on G5 iMacs?
    Sincere thanks,
    Bill
    iMac G5 20 inch   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    I don't know MYM does it make no difference if you allocate more memory to it with file>Get Info>Memory, please?
    My own G5 runs classic exactly as my older G4 does, and since my configuratin is hardly likely to match yours, what does that prove?
    If it was my Mac, I'd copy the Classic System Folder, set the copy in Classic System Preference, set its Extension Manager Set to Mac OS (Base) then Restart Classic and reinstall MYM, which should now have nothing to interfere with it…

    Edited by: Suhas Saha on Jul 25, 2011 11:13 AM

    Hi munish,
    I dont think there is any thing wrong with the ABAP code.
    Try testing your ABAP mapping using transaction code SXI_MAPPING_TEST in XI.
    Enter the Details asked and then enter TEst data in XML format.. 
    Also, you can make use of the Trace element to find out if there is any thing wrong with the code.
    Include the following Statements after every step in the ABAP code to ensure that the particular step is completed successfully.
    data : l_trace type string.
    concatenate l_trace '<Message you want to display>' into l_trace.
    trace->trace(level = '<level>'
    message =l_trace).  
    The trace is visible in SXMB_MONI (click on "Trace" in the left pane to view).
    using this you will get to know i the code is functioning as desired.

  • Custom mySQL  - updating path / problem with pre-installed mySQL

    I've got a custom mySQL installation setup and humming along on a 10.6.4 server. The problem is although I've updated the paths to search on usr/local/mysql/bin, when I try to access by using the shortcut mysql i get this error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/mysql/mysql.sock' . To be clear, mySQL is working fine - it's just the shortcut that's not.
    This makes me think that the shell is looking first at the default [not enabled] apple mysql install. So something in my paths must be wiggy.
    I had this working perfectly on my 10.4 Xserve but the no one, I'm at a loss.
    Has anyone else run into this - any tips? I'm not going to be running the Apple install of mySQL.

    Actually, my problem is not with the socket location but with the data directory location. But I think is caused by the same path problem to data as yours was with socket. I have posted this question to the Mac OS X Technologies > Unix forum. If you could take a look, I would appreciate it.
    Thanks.

    I'd check to ensure that you have the latest versions of the
    WebAssist extensions as this may have been fixed. I seem to recall
    seeing this issue when the primary browser (from Dreamweaver's
    perspective, the one that F12 or preview in browser opens up) is
    not open when the help is accessed. Try having your browser open
    and then access the help.

  • Mirrored volumes pathing problems

    mirrored volumes pathing problems        
    I am running Windows 2008 Server Datacenter.
    I created some mirrored volumes with disk administrator.
    These disk are in a fibre channel fabric.
    All paths go down so disk administrator losses the disks.
    All paths come up and disk administrator recovers the disks.
    The mirrors all show as failed.
    There are disks that show as failed, and disks that show as foreign.
    When I import the foreign disks. 
    One of the mirrored volume starts resyncing, and the other mirrored volume comes up as 2 simple volumes.
    Both mirrored volumes were in sync when the paths went down.
    So I expected them to come back up as mirrored volumes when the paths come back up.
    There is no I/O running at the time of the path failures.

    So let me see if I understand correctly.
    2 volumes presented to 2008 Datacenter via fibre channel
    Volumes are then mirrored via windows
    Disks drop off line and then the second mirror is 2 simple volumes but the first is rebuilding.
    So question 1 - Is it for read performance that the disks are mirrored?
    Question 2 - what disk errors appear in the event log when this happens
    Question 3 - whats the HBA used in the server
    Question 4 - Whats the backend staorage
    Question 5 - Is MPIO being used?
    Do we know the reason that the paths became unavailable? That would be probably my biggest concern.
    Also when the simple volumes came back up was the data available?

  • Problems installing Tiger on G3

    I am having troubles installing OS X (10.4) on our G3 Desktop (Blue and White). The G3 has almost all original hardware, including built on firewire. Things added were a DVD Drive from a G4. It meets all the required specs for Tiger. It has all the latest updates and firmware upgrades. And the version I am trying to install is a generic OS X Tiger Installation Disk, for multiple computers.
    When inserting the DVD on bootup, the display never comes out of powersave mode. If I start the system without the DVD in the drive, it boots into OS 9.2.2 just fine. Then if I insert the disc it pulls up the contents, I click on the installer and it says click Restart to begin the installation. Again it tries to boot but nothing ever shows up on the screen. I can hear the DVD drive spinning up about 30 seconds after restart, but nothing ever happens.
    I've tried holding 'C', I've tried selecting it as a startup disk from within OS 9. I've even tried to install over the network, but everytime it tries to bootup the installation, the screen never gets a signal.
    If you can please give me some suggestions I would really appreciate it!
