    Spandana - 2016-08-22

    Hi Laurel Stewart,
    I have been trying to install PLEXIL onto my system (Linux).
    I checked it out from svn using the command:
    svn checkout https://svn.code.sf.net/p/plexil/code/branches/plexil-4

    I have installed all the packages listed in the Software Requirement system.

    From the CAVEATS file I got the information regarding commands toreplace the bad files:
    aclocal --force
    libtoolize --force --copy
    autoreconf --force --install

    Next I ran the config command:
    ./configure --prefix=$PLEXIL_HOME --disable-static --enable-gantt --enable-ipc --enable-sas --enable-test-exec --enable-udp

    Continued by the make command:
    sudo make install

    Then changes the first line of the plexil-4/src/setup.sh to
    export PLEXIL_HOME='/location/of/plexil'
    . $PLEXIL_HOME/scripts/plexil-setup.sh

    Typing commands with 'plexil' or 'plexil-c' gives me a command not found error.

    Any kind of help in setting up the software will be appreciated.
    Thank you,
    Best,
    Spandana.V

      Hello Spandana.V,

      Thanks for the detailed report. In order for the PLEXIL commands to be found, their correct location must be in your PATH variable, and I don't see this set up in the information you sent.

      First, please verify that PLEXIL_HOME is the correct location of your PLEXIL installation:

      echo $PLEXIL_HOME

      In particular, it should be literally '/location/of/plexil', in case you simply pasted that string from the instructions.

      Next, add PLEXIL's executable directory to your PATH variable. You can do so by adding this line to your .bashrc file:

      export PATH=$PLEXIL_HOME/scripts:$PATH

      Then, source your .bashrc file,

      . ~/.bashrc

      and you should be good to go.

      Hope this helped,
      Mike

        Thank you Mike! Looks like I made the mistake of making those changes in the setup.sh file instead of .bashrc file.
