I am new to Linux and non-Microsoft web development (long time MS developer). I am making some kind of fundamental mistake when I install Linux programs but I don't know what.
I am trying to install spring-boot-cli for use to make a Java microservice. I am just trying to learn how. I followed the installation instructions I found here, ending up using the SDKMAN installation method: https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/getting-started-installing-spring-boot.html
When I try to run spring --version, it says spring is not installed. When I go back and try to install it again, sdk says, "STOP! this is already installed."
I am having a similar problem with Maven. I try to run command line commands and it is not recognized, but it claims it is installed.
a bit unusual but at the terminal type:
> which spring
and then
> $PATH
should give you a starting point.

I'm frustrated. I'm a total beginner in this (TYPO3), know well about HTML/CSS though but all the info I found on the web reads like Chinese for me. Like that one: http://mac-dev-env.patrickbougie.com/graphicsmagick/
I have no clue what that means!
I've downloaded GM, extracted the zip and double-clicked the configure file. The installation finished without any problems (as far as I can tell).
So here's the ting: can anybody please tell me, how this sort of installation is suppossed to be completed? I need it from the very beginning, actually from unpacking the zip.
Do I have to have another program, like this terminal program on the Mac, where you have to type in command lines? Do I have to write or edit code somewhere? Do I need to create folders? Where, in the TYPO3-Backend, can I check if it even works?
TYPO3 is installed and it works perfectly so far. THANKS A LOT! :)
PS: I really like to learn this (!), but my head is bumping right now :(
Easy way:
If you want to "just install" GM I suggest you to use one of OS X package managers like homebrew or macports. They can simplify configuration, building and installation process for you. So you'll only need to open Terminal and type (depending on chosen package manager):
brew install graphicsmagick or port install graphicsmagick
To verify that your installation is successful open Terminal and type gm version, as result you should see version and other details of your installation.
Fundamental way:
If you want learn how to build and install GM from sources, I recommend you to start reading official documentation. And then, by the way, read about "Make" and other tools used in build process.
As #Oles Savluk pointed easiest way to install such stuff is using homebrew. When you'll install it already, open new terminal window and use command which gm to find the path it will be i.e.: /usr/local/bin/gm - copy/write it and use in the TYPO3's Install Tool in proper place.
I want to build a Darwin Streaming Server on my mac for iOS development test. But after taking the following steps which I searched from google, it fails all the time.
Method 1:
Download from http://dss.macosforge.org/ ->Mac OS X Install -> Streaming Server;
Install the dmg;
It tries to open http://127.0.0.1:1220/ but fails with "This webpage is not available ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED".
Method 2:
Download the source code of 6.0.3 version;
$ tar xvf DarwinStreamingSrvr6.0.3-Source.tar
$ cd DarwinStreamingSrvr6.0.3-Source
$ wget http://www.abrahamsson.com/dss-6.0.3.patch
$ patch -p0 < dss-6.0.3.patch
$ ./Buildit
Then, it fails with the following words.
Darwin Streaming Server
I don't know your platform. I'll assume this is a Linux x86 platform.
Please edit the BuildServer script & PlatformHeader.h to add your platform.
Building for Darwin.x86_64 with gcc
xcodebuild DarwinStreamingServer
=== BUILD LIBRARY TARGET AtomicLib (Library) OF PROJECT StreamingServer WITH CONFIGURATION Development ===
Check dependencies
Jam is deprecated and has been removed; targets that use Jam must be upgraded to native targets. For more information on doing this, consult the Xcode documentation.
** BUILD FAILED **
The following build commands failed:
Check dependencies
(1 failure)"
I tried to run ./Install, it showed me
Unable to perform install
You must be logged in as root to install Darwin Streaming Server
and I don't know what to do now.
PS: I've installed Xcode on my mac and didn't find any available document about Darwin Streaming Server, or I missed it?
Hope for any help. Thanks.
Calios and Jessica, thank you for your answers. I'm running using OS Windows 7 and installing DSS 5.5.5 for windows, and I also meet the condition same as with you.
However, after I followed your instructions, it's not close enough with our needs, because the button will lose meaning in presentation.
So I started digging more information from another articles, and I found interesting perception from a developer at this article. He said the following:
Maybe this has something to do with the perl script which generates the web sites?*
So starting from Jens's perception, I tried to downgrade my Perl Script from version 5.26 to 5.8. This resolved my problem, the interface displays correctly as in the DSS Tutorial.
Right now I'm still working on testing the DSS function
I hope this solution will help others.
Well, finally I solved this issue with the help of my friend.
Here's the steps of solution.
I've given up compiling and building on my own and downloaded the dmg file.(version 6.0.3)
Install the dmg as directions.
Then, go to /usr/sbin in terminal and find streamingadminserver.pl and QuickTimeStreamingServer.
Run them.
Check if they're running with ps aux|grep streaming.
Open http://localhost:1220/parse_xml.cgi in Safari or Chrome. It will show some textfield and a button.
However, there's no words at all ! Go to /Library/QuickTimeStreaming/AdminHtml and edit setup_assistant2.html.
Find line 333 and change it from return "$message{$name}"; to return $name;.
Then it shows some understandable words, though not exact words.
Till now, it can be partly work. However, in some steps I mentioned above, for example, html editing step, I really don't know why the words just don't show and just have a try.
Save the exact steps I did here for memory. It will be wonderful if it can help anyone or anyone have some good idea about it.
Thanks.
#SouravGupta, I am a newbie for stackoverflow, so I could not add comment to reply your question.
I just installed DDS 6.0.3 on Mac OS X El Capitan. I hit the same problem you had. I found that ** return "$message{$name}"; ** is no longer in setup_assistant2.html. It is in parse_xml.cgi (/Library/QuickTimeStreaming/AdminHtml). Just search for "sub foundString". There were two return places there. You need to change both in order to make it work.
It seems that DDS web admin software has localization function. Html files only contain string keywords. It suppose to use that "foundString" function to get translated string from keywords. However, for some reason, it returns empty string here even if there is a "messages" file inside html_en folder. I could not spend more time to figure out why right now.
QTSS/DSS Web Admin 6.0.3 requires Perl version 5.16 and earlier. OS X 10.11 El Capitan installs both Perl versions 5.16 and 5.18, but it defaults to using Perl version 5.18.
In order to run QTSS/DSS Web Admin in OS X 10.11 El Capitan, you need to examine each of the Perl script (.pl) within the AdminHtml folder and change the line #!/usr/bin/perl to #!/usr/bin/perl5.16.
So I'm trying to make the switch from Bootstrap to Foundation , and I'm attempting to follow the instructions on this page (as I'm trying to install Foundation with Sass), but the instructions on the site are rather unclear to me - I've installed Git, Ruby and NodeJS but every time I get to the step
foundation new MY_PROJECT
I keep getting the error "Can't find Git, you can install it from http://git-scm.com/downloads except I've already installed it (and reinstalled it, twice actually) and I have no idea what to do to fix it. Perhaps someone could lay out the instructions from start to finish in more concrete terms so that I can understand?
Strangely enough, I reinstalled Git and found that you have to adjust Git's PATH option so that it runs Git from the Command Prompt (essentially, pick the second option on the "Adjusting your PATH environment" screen when installing Git).
Not entirely sure why I didn't realize that before, but it fixed the problem for me!
It is probably some kind of path issue.
You could also run Git Bash that was installed when you installed Git and then execute the foundation new MY_PROJECT command from there. It worked for me :)
I have researched this and found answers on SO on this topic yet remain confused.
Trying to get started with Git. I'm new to shell scripting too so hopefully after this I'll be more familiar with it.
I'm reading this page about how to get up and running with Git: http://git-scm.com/book/en/Getting-Started-Installing-Git
I created a directory on my desktop called "git" and navigated to it in the terminal. With my level of experience in shell scripting this was a victory. Then, following a blog post on how to download fromt he terminal ran this command:
curl -O http://git-scm.com/download
That worked, or at least a new file was added to the "git" directory that I created.
Reading down the instructions one is told that "To install Git, you need to have the following libraries that Git depends on: curl, zlib, openssl, expat, and libiconv"
OK. Um. How? I did read some blog posts and SO answers on how to do this but failed. The first one for example - type zlib and hit enter - command not found? How do I either check if it's already installed or how do I install it? What about the others?
I tried following this blog post: http://www.neuraladvance.com/using-open-source-libraries-on-mac-os-x.html
I typed:
./configure
make
sudo make install
Wasn't even sure what to expect. The first two commands said not found the last one asked me for a password.
I then tried ./configure --help
Was then told "No such file or directory"
Needless to say I don't know what to do next. How do I install the libraries on a Mac using the terminal? curl, zlib, openssl, expat, and libiconv
I'm pretty sure all those libraries are preinstalled on your Mac.
If not, installing Xcode (free on the AppStore) would do the trick.
Xcode actually comes with git (but not the latest version) so if you install Xcode you don't need to install git separately.
To answer your question more generally, you might want to install Homebrew.
It's a command line tool to install software and libraries and it's pretty easy to use.
It's great that you are discovering the shell. You should read some tutorials for beginners. If you like it, you will learn very fast and in a few weeks, you will understand exactly why the command you tried didn't work. Have fun learning!
As Simon suggested you should install Xcode, however the CLI tools are not installed automatically. They must be downloaded through Xcode's, preferences. In Preferences click the Downloads tab then install next to Command Line Tools.
If any of the required tools are not automatically installed with Xcode, Homebrew is a great, easy to use, utility that can install nearly any UNIX or Linux command with the following syntax:
brew install <SomeAppName>
The Homebrew website has easy to follow instructions for setting it up initially. So if anything you need is missing try using that.
In Xcode 5, to download Command Line Tools, choose Open Developer Tool under "Xcode", then More Developer Tools> from the sub Menu. This takes you to an Apple web page - you'll need a Developer username/password to get to the Downloads page.
Choose the right CLT for your system, download and install from the dmg/pkg.
All,
Am trying to get Node.js to work on Vista machine.
I installed Cygwin (as per the Github instructions) which appears to have been installed correctly. However, none of the commands are executing.
Are there any tutorials for the stages after the Cygwin installation?
PROBLEM: When any command is executed, I get 'Bash: command not found' error.
Not even command like 'c:\cygwin\bin' is executing.
When I type 'user' in cygwin command prompt, I get 'ntvdm has encountered an system error. Parameter incorrect'.
I thought the above error may be due to the firewall, disabling the firewall did not have any effect, running the program with admin rights also did not change the results...
Am confused and would love to get some guidance on what steps to go with next on getting Node.js up and running on a Windows Vista machine.
Many thanks,
UPDATE1:
We managed to make a bit more progress. It appears that we had not installed all the relevant files related to Cygwin. Upon re-download and reinstalled, it ran well, however, we have driven into another error. Error we get:
How to compile/install node.js(could not configure a cxx compiler!) (Ubuntu).
We followed the instructions as per the above thread (3rd post from top for Windows machines), however, we are still stuck at the same error.
Any guidance please?
Have you tried just using the Windows self contained binaries? http://node-js.prcn.co.cc/ This way you actually don't need to bother with Cygwin.
At first, i tried it your way too, using Cygwin. After smashing my head for the 10th time against a wall i just stopped trying and found a much cleaner solution.
I'm using VirtualBox running a Debain guest system to locally develop on my Windows 7 machine. Using VirtualBox, you can easily set up shared folders or port forwarding for node apps between your Windows machine and your Debian guest system.
Since you are using a plain Linux-system, all the compiling-pain is blown away.
If you plan to run node.js in production on a windows system: don't. I hardly believe node.js will be ever stable enough on windows-based systems using MINGW/Cygwin...
People seem to run into problems with Cygwin because they think that they are using a Windows machine.
If you install Cygwin, and open a bash shell prompt using the Cygwin icon, you are now in a UNIX environment and everything works the same as it would on UNIX. That includes building node.js.
I think you added some info to the question and I can see your problem. Yes, normally on Cygwin it has been possible to build node.js just as you would on any UNIX system, but that is no longer possible on Windows 7. Before running ./configure you have to:
Close all cygwin apps.
Double-click on C:\Cygwin\bin\ash.exe
Run ./rebaseall and when it completes, run ./perlrebase.
exit from the ash shell window.
At this point Cygwin will be back to normal and you can ./configure and make install.
