McIDAS-V Support Forums

Hi,

I installed the mcidas V version for Linux and I did in the directory /home/conrado/McIDAS-V-System

./runMcV

I had :

What can I do to slove this error.

Thanks,

Hi Conrado-

This error has been reported before on Linux systems. We have some questions for you:

1. What is the operating system and version of your Linux machine? The output of "uname -a" from a terminal window might be helpful.

2. Have you ever used McIDAS-V on this Linux machine before successfully?

3. The Using McIDAS-V FAQ page of the User's Guide has a "What do I do if McIDAS-V will not work on my computer?" question that walks through different things to try, including steps 1 & 2 which ask to update drivers and try a Java3D example to make sure the computer supports Java3D. Those often are helpful.

Let us know if those help fix the problems, otherwise let us know answers to the questions above.

Thanks, Jay
