PureBasic Forums - English

I download the file from the WEB...
I unpack the file in the desktop...
I follow all steps of the Install file...
The pbcompiler in the /usr/bin work Ok and show me a text...

BUT.....I DONT SEE THE IDE INTERFACE like windows and there is no information "detailed " abouth how to view it in the INSTALL file.

Thank's to all.......................

When you run the file "purebasic" the IDE should start.

I type purebasic in a "Run Command" from My desktop and nothin....
I open a superuser terminal and type purebasic and nothing......

I have a dude wiyh the instalation path..... were install the files in superuser or local user?

Only work the pbcompiler.....the IDE never run!

Thank's

This work Ok !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

but there is the problem

dmc@CMDElectronica:~> purebasic
bash: purebasic: command not found
dmc@CMDElectronica:~>[/i]

Where did you copy PB to?
Perhaps /usr/share/purebasic?
Then try (as a user, never as root ): "/usr/share/purebasic/compilers/purebasic"

This is the instalation path...

This is the path of the PBCOMPILER......

dmc@CMDElectronica:/usr/bin> dir pbcompiler
-rwxr-xr-x 1 dmc users 182480 2005-01-26 11:17 pbcompiler
dmc@CMDElectronica:/usr/bin>

And I try this......

dmc@CMDElectronica:/usr/bin> ./usr/share/purebasic/compilers/purebasic
bash: ./usr/share/purebasic/compilers/purebasic: No existe el fichero o el direc torio
dmc@CMDElectronica:/usr/bin>

And this......

dmc@CMDElectronica:/usr/share/purebasic/compilers> purebasic
bash: purebasic: command not found
dmc@CMDElectronica:/usr/share/purebasic/compilers>

I am in a user shell..... I dont understand!!!

Basically you haven't installed it correctly. I recomment following the other installation instructions (the one that doesn't require root rights).

We can suggest me a instalation procedure? It is the only information available in the file downloaded ftom the purebasic home page!!!!!........We can see the trouble!

Thank's

Installation: <-------------------------- From Install file !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Use 'su -' to have root shell (if not already done)

Copy the 'purebasic/Compilers/pbcompiler' file in /usr/bin/
or any other directory in the PATH:

# cp purebasic/compilers/pbcompiler /usr/bin/

Next, move the whole 'purebasic' directory in /usr/share/

# cp -rf purebasic /usr/share/

NOTE: you can set the $PUREBASIC_HOME environment variable to
your installation path if you don't want to put the purebasic
drawer in /usr/share.

If you don't have 'fasm', copy it in your path (fasm v1.45 at least)

# cp purebasic/compilers/fasm /usr/bin/

To test your install, just type:

# pbcompiler

It should output:

******************************************
PureBasic Linux x86 v3.92
******************************************

A filename must be specified.

==>.<==/usr/share/purebasic/compilers/purebasic

What's the dot meant to be?

PureBasic Linux x86 v3.92

Maybe you also should give PB 4.0 beta a try. Actually, it's still quite buggy yet, but compared to PB 3.93
You can find it in you Espace personnel.

PureBasic Linux x86 v3.92

That version doesn't have a Linux IDE.

Yes Trond.... there is a purebasic.exe in the compilers directory....
I don't understand why isn't a purebasic bin file....

I run the purebasic ( v3.92 )file demo version and the IDE run Ok.

AnyWay .... the compiller is bad installed.... Thank you for all.

purebasic.exe is the file created by the pbcompiler

Yes WishMaster but this work or not work?

purebasic.exe is not the IDE, it's the program you compile via pbcompiler
