processing 2.0.2 its installied in ubuntu 13.04 but not run

in Integration and Hardware • 1 month ago

Hello word. I am new in ubuntu. I have installed in my notebook ubuntu 13.04. I installed open java 6 ( jdk-6-) and I installed processing 2.0.2 for linux 64 bits. I make de steps indicated in this tutorial: http://blog.jorgeivanmeza.com/2010/05/instalar-processing-en-linux-ubuntu-10-04/ for that I created a directory "usr/local/processing/processing-2.0.2
here its installed my processing.
I open a terminal, I go to the indicated directory and type "processing" but processing not run.
In this directory are the following sub directories and files:
directories:
core
java
launch4j
lib
modes
tools

files:

processing [script en shell (application/x-shellscript) ] <------ this its a properties of processing file
processing-java
revision.txt

My hypothesis: processing its bad installed.

Thank

answers in spanish more welcome.

Sorry, most I can do is typing in Portuguese!

Your experience is very different than mine though.

Both in Linux and Windows, I haven't "installed" Processing per se.
I've just decompressed its 64-bit installer to somewhere in my HD arbitrarily.
Like "~/processing-2.0.2" for example.
And in Linux, I had to set the executable bit for the "processing" launcher.

In my Lubuntu 13.04 system, I got 64-bit OpenJDK 7 installed.
And to force Processing to use that Java version, I've removed its bundled "/java" sub-folder.

Well, that's how it works in my OS.

P.S.: I haven't used any CLI for those procedures. Only GUI.

you're not obliged to put your processing into

usr/local/processing/processing-2.0.2

but it can be, just as GoTo says - an arbitrary folder.

Again you have to add "executable" bit on the processing file.

Probably this command will do the trick

Copy code

chmod +x processing

and as well if you're inside of folder

usr/local/processing/processing-2.0.2

and want to start processing, you have to type

Copy code

./processing

NOT just

Copy code

processing

The executable bit permission can be set using a regular GUI file browser.
Just right-click @ a file or folder, select Properties, and go to its Permissions tab.
In there, look for Execute and choose Anyone.

Then you can double click "processing" to execute its script launcher for Processing/Java.
