Fedora :: 12 And VMTools - The Path "" Is Not Valid Path To The Gcc Binary
Mar 23, 2010
running Windows 7 64bit with VMware Workstation 7.01-build 227600. I have some knowledge of Linux, I have installed f12 and have updated the system as of 03/22/2010. All updates completed successfully.
1) How do I install VMTools on the f12 (after mounting the CD/DVD tool package)
2) How do I update the gcc files it says are dependencies?
Here's what I get on installation:Before you can compile modules, you need to have the following installed...
make
gcc
kernel headers of the running kernel
and then I am prompted for this input from the install script:
Searching for GCC...
The path "" is not valid path to the gcc binary.
Would you like to change it? [yes]
and this is where I get stuck. How do I get around this or satisfy the requirements for the install?
Just upgraded from UBUNTU to FEDORA 11. Installed most add on programs such as cacti & mysqld using YUM INSTALL. With help of 'scottro', I finally got cacti running, but still finding errors (most problems caused by different directory locations in this particular distro).
snmpwalk Binary Path The path to your snmpwalk binary. [ERROR: FILE NOT FOUND] snmpget Binary Path The path to your snmpget binary. [ERROR: FILE NOT FOUND] snmpbulkwalk Binary Path The path to your snmpbulkwalk binary. [ERROR: FILE NOT FOUND] snmpgetnext Binary Path The path to your snmpgetnext binary. [ERROR: FILE NOT FOUND]
Does anyone know where are these directories located in Fedora (11)? Is there a way to find where a directory is located (normally i use 'whereis' )? No such problems when using UBUNTU...
how to add a path to PATH variable permanently so that it remains persisent even after closing shell and rebooting the system when i added a path, to variable it remained there as long as i didn't closed the shell. but when i reopened it ,changed were undone.
I am reading about jiffies in linux kernel. In one of the related example in the book Linux Device Driver, the author use head -8 /proc/currentime to print out some time information.
However this file is not present in my linux installation (kernel: 2.6.32-131.6.1.el6.x86_64). Why is it the case? Is it because the file path is no longer valid, or it is a distribution feature thing? It is not present in OSX too. What would be an equivalent in OSX?
Is it possible to get the path of a process running under Mono in Linux? For example if I launch KeePass using mono KeePass.exe, running ps just shows the command name as mono, while what I really want is KeePass.exe.
After saving above changes, I enter the command: source ~/.bashrc Now if I do echo $PATH, the path shows both the old PLAY_HOME and new PLAY_HOME. This is really bad and messes up a lot of things in my project. This problem only goes away if I logout or reboot, a rather very long process. What is happening is that the old path is added to new path element and the old path includes the old path element you want to remove.
I'm taking here about tins of directories, thousands of files. I'm looking to find a command that makes me able to move the results above to another path, and to create that path once it doesn't exist like below:
Java applet not loading image with relative path(e.g. images/1.jpg) but loads image with absolute path(i.e. from /root/user/images/1.jpg) . This is a problem when i want to host the applet on web server
I have a program that takes a relative path as input appends it to a some path string to get the actual path.
Now all I can input is the relative path. So if I want to go one level above my input will be ../mypath.
If I know the depth of the path used internally, I can use .. as many times to go to the root directory and then give the absolute path. But suppose I do not know the depth of the directory, can I construct a relative path string such that it considers it as a relative path. One way could be to have enough .. in the path string so that I can force an absolute path for some maximum depth of path.
Is there some path string syntax that I am not aware of but can achieve this?
Experimenting with shell variables, accidentally deleted the path variable how could I return to the original path value. What kinds of problems will I have if I don't have a path variable.
I have a path c:windowsackup I need this string to be changed into /windows/back/up I used the command -bash-3.00$ echo windackup | sed 's/\//g' but the output is windbackup
prefix=user@my-server: find . -depth -type d -name .git -printf '%h�' | while read -d "" path ; do ( cd "$path" || exit $?
[code]....
How shall i go about changing the absolute path to relative path, so that /home/git/mirror/android/adb/ndk.git gets converted to /mirror/android/adb/ndk.git //echo <command> "$prefix$PWD.git" ?? - anything for relative path?
I am trying to figure out how i can add the path /usr/sbin/ into the $PATH variable. I want this to be used from the normal account. I am bored settinh this manualy each time my computer starts.
Does anyone know how to get the path with a inode number by C programming? Or can I get the absolute path without giving a "path" but a inode number by C?
like this: get_path(unsigned inode); not such this function: getcwd(".", xxx); taowuwen@gmail.com
opening a window caught my attention which is not the typical bar where is the path to where I am (/ home / usser / Documents /....), What can I do to activate ?
How do I get 'lame' in my path? I just installed Asunder, and I want to rip CDs in MP3 format to my hard drive. I get an error message that reads:Quote:'lame' was not found in your path. Asunder requires it to play MP3 files. All MP3 functionality is disabled.
I would like to run a script from any location. The script is in ~/scripts, so I added ~/scripts to my PATH. However, since I have to run it with 'sh script.sh' (due to the permissions on the directory), it doesn't seem to look in PATH for the file script.sh. Is there a way to get it to do this?
I'm using NoMachine's FreeNX client on my Vista PC to access my Fedora 12 box. Mostly works a real peach and I'm very impressed with it. But...... Working through some of the stuff I'd "like" it to do I'm struggling with enabling sound.I've enabled the Multimedia setting in the NX Client. I've loaded via Add/Remove Software,

I enjoy the way Gnome automounts devices, such as cameras, thumb drives, and my iphone but it doesn't seem to mount the device in a conventional way that can be accessed by a path in a command prompt.Automounted devices can be configured to Do 'X' every time it is connected (you knew that) which includes specifying a command. I want to rsync the contents of the picture folder every time I drop it in the cradle, but retain the automount that gnome uses.The path used in Nautilus is : gphoto2://[usb:001,008]/DCIM/100APPLEBut that doesn't seem to be useful to me, at least as far as I can see.
I'm running Fedora Core 12 x86_64. I started out using the default bash shell (and customized the .bashrc, etc. as necessary) but had to switch to csh for this one scientific package that requires that shell.
The issue is that my $PATH has unwanted redundancy and I can't figure out how to fix it:
Code:
The csh shell was completely new to me so I'm sure I made a mistake somewhere.
Below are the files that might be relevant for diagnosing this problem. I don't think I touched /etc/csh.login or /etc/csh.cshrc but I might have accidentally done so.
I am trying to setup DNS domain name in my server (Fedora), which has static ip address.First, I put the DNS domain name in system-config-network->DNS->DNS search path. After restarting the network, it is deleted automatically.second, so I put the DNS domain name in /etc/resolv.conf as search mydomainname . After network restart, it is also deleted automatically.In both case domain name did not work (i.e, I can't connect to my server from outside using domain name, I can by ip address, internet is working fine).However, I found that the domain name is written in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 with search=mydominaname.
I have successfully installed Adobe Reader 9.1. It shows up in firefox as a plugin properly. It does not show up in edit->preferences as an Application (not sure if that matters). However when I click on a PDF to download, I get an error in the browser:
"Could not launch Adobe Reader 9.1.2. Please make sure it exists in PATH variable in the environment. If the problem persists, please reinstall the application."
I put the /opt/Adobe/Reader9/bin in my PATH in ~/.bashrc and even rebooted to make sure all was set. I still get the same message. Where do I set my PATH to make this work?
