Problem in installing Chimera in Linux
Dear my friends, I tried to install Chimera on Ubuntu. I followed the instruction in Release Note of UCSF. I typed in Terminal command the following: chmod +x chimera-installer.bin chimera-installer.bin but it shows me : chimera-installer.bin: command not found Can you tell me how I can do to install it ?

Hi Phi, Assuming you are in the right place (the directory or folder where the bin file is), instead of chimera-installer.bin try this: ./chimera-installer.bin … which just says to use the file in the directory you’re currently in, instead of searching your paths, which might not include that directory. I hope this helps, Elaine ----- Elaine C.

Thank you for your advice, I try as you told me but when I typed ./chimera-installer.bin , it showed that bash: ./chimera-installer.bin: No such file or directory. My working folder is Downloads and when I typed ls, I saw chimera-installer.bin in the list. I took a snapshot to show you. Please, help me!!!

In the bash shell, double check that the chimera-installer is executable with: ls -l chimera-installer.bin I would expect the output to be: -rwxr-xr-x chimera-installer.bin If the x's are missing: chmod +x chimera-installer.bin If the x's are still missing, then change your umask with: umask 0002 and do the chmod again. Then run: ./chimera-installer.bin And everything should be wonderful :-) HTH, Greg On 09/14/2016 01:02 PM, Chau Phi DINh wrote:
