I'm trying to install Maya (a 3d package,which is a RPM file).I've converted it to a tgz file by using rpm2tgz.The installation went fine,without any errors,but when I type maya into a terminal to launch the app I get this error:
Code:
bash: maya: command not found
I've tried with typing Maya (capital first letter),but I get the same error.I've tried installing it using rpm -U --nodeps .... it went fine without any errors,but I get the same error when typing maya in a tyerminal.Does anyone know how to solve this?
It is installed in /usr/aw/maya7.0
In /usr/aw/maya/bin there is a ''c shell script text executable'' file named Maya7.0
What do I have to do now?Please explain it step by step,I'm pretty new to linux.
Damn, I had a great link about this, but can't find it right now. You will need to create the hidden files in your /home directory. This link may help http://www.dualisanoob.com/slack_102_tips.txt
best I could find at the moment.
I created that file and put export PATH= bla bla in it,but it still doesn't work,I still get the same error.The second option didn't work either,I get this error if I type that command into the terminal:
Are you running (typing) 'Maya7.0' (capital 'M', '7.0' from the command line, like this:
$ Maya7.0
That's it!Sorry for starting this topic,on other distros I've tried the command was just maya.The command works,but I get a dependency error.I will firstly google a bit for the dependency problem,if I don't find a solution I will open a new topic.I want to thank you alll a bunch!This really is a great community.
Edit:
I've succesfully installed the dependency in no-time.Thanx again guys,you really helped me alot.
