installing clish on ubuntu
 

hi all

i need to install clish:http://clish.sourceforge.net/
on ubuntu, and i can't understand how.

i tried using the terminal and write the following:

me@me-desktop:~$ sudo apt-get install clish
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Couldn't find package clish

and it can't find the package.
i tried downloading it and install it but i just cant find how to do so
can someone please help me ?

thanks

This only works when clish is part of the install database of known packages.

As per the link you provided, download the file - clish-0.7.3.tar.gz
Once extracted, follow the INSTALL or README instructions on installation.

Assuming this has to be compiled, you may also have to install the C compiler (gcc).
This can be done via Synaptic Manager. Remember to install the dev (gcc-dev, i think) as well

If there are errors from the "./configure" step then you are missing some dependencies. If this is the case, do not follow the remaining steps. You will first need to install the dependences (they should be available with apt-get). If you can't work out how to do this, please post the exact error messages from "./configure" here on the forum.

The "sudo" in the last step is needed if your user does not have write permission to /usr/local

Cheers,

I just did a search.

167 pages found. It seems to be redundant and obsolete. The last update to the source was in 2008.

So, why did you want to install clish, if you don't know what it is, what it does, or how to use it?

i need to install clish in order to implement it to our API
- the idea is to take our API and to generate prints and premmisions according to user groups - this is what clish does - if i ever manage to understand what i need to do next in order for it to work.

hi all - i have read the clish documentation over again and it says i need to set the enviorment param CLISH_PATH to the current folder and then to run clish. i am not sure how to do this.

for the path settting i have tried : set CLISH_PATH /home/me/clish-0.7.3/xml-examples
(is this the same as setenv? from where should i run this?)

and when i try to run the clish.cpp : ./clish

i get the following:
me@me-desktop:~/clish-0.7.3/bin$ ./clish
*** Failed to open '/etc/clish' directory
*** Failed to open '/home/me/.clish' directory
lt-clish: clish/shell/shell_startup.c:14: clish_shell_startup: Assertion `this->startup' failed.
Aborted

does anyone have any idea what i should do ?
thanks allot
