I need to make a Linux stand-alone executable but am making no progress. I can run my app in 2.0a4 but can make an executable from 2.0a4 because it has known issues creating Linux applications.  I've tried 2.0a5 but both versions create an application shell script that when execute simply does nothing. I get some drive access and then nothing at all. I edited the backslash "typo" issue in the executable script from 2.0a4 to no avail.

My application needs to run on Ubuntu 10.04, but I've also tried this on Xbuntu/Xfce 4. I can run my application within Processing from the IDE but creating the stand alone application is not functioning. I can't revert to 1.5.1 as I need the Serial library which doesn't work with that version, 2.0 is recommended to overcome that issue. I tried reverting to 1.2.1 but can't get Processing to run in that version. Setting it's script to run as an executable also get's me nothing in response to executing it (either double-click or right-click and choose "execute" from menu). Using sudo bash gets me a permission error even when I provide my system password. My app and creating an application in Windows is no problem, but doesn't get me to a Ubuntu application.

Can anyone shed any light on this? I'm behind on this project and have a bunch or very irritated folks up my a$$ at the moment over this.

Thanks in advance.
