#43 GT.M INstall V7.1-008 in Ubuntu 25

[CelsoLM]

Hello, I am an Intersystems iRIS user and I am looking for an alternative to replace it. It turns out that I installed GT.M V7.1-008 on an Ubuntu version 25, according to the Administration and Operations Guide, but when I do "mupip create" in the $HOME/gtm/data directory, the error occurs:
%GTM-E-ZGBLDIRACC, Cannot access global directory /home/dev/gtm/data/gtm.gld. Cannot continue.
My /etc/environment file looks like this:

PATH="/usr/lib/fis-gtm/V7.1-008_x86_64:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/loca>

gtm_log=/tmp/gtm/$gtmver
gtm_dist=/usr/lib/fis-gtm/V7.1-008_x86_64

gtmgbldir=$HOME/gtm/data/gtm.gld

gtmgbldir=/home/dev/gtm/data/gtm.gld

gtmroutines="$HOME/gtm/routines $gtm_dist"

gtm_tmp=$HOME/gtm/tmp

gtm_chset="UTF-8"

gtm_icu_version=76

Does anyone know how to fix this error?

The error "%GTM-E-ZGBLDIRACC, Cannot access global directory /home/dev/gtm/data/gtm.gld. Cannot continue." states that it could not find the file gtm.gld

For "mupip create" to work, it needs a global directory first. You can create that by executing

$gtm_dist/mumps -run GDE exit

This will create a global directory with the defaults. For more information on that refer to the GDE chapter in the Administration and Operations Guide
