Hello all,
I am running Ubuntu 7.04 and am attempting to install SAC. I untarred the files into my /usr/local/ directory. I then added the following lines to my .bashrc file:

export SACAUX='/usr/local/sac/aux'
PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/sac/bin

When I echo $PATH I see that
/usr/local/sac/bin
is there and when I echo $SACAUX I get:
/usr/local/sac/aux
However, upon typing sac, I receive the following error:

bash: /usr/local/sac/bin/sac: No such file or directory

I have also tried ./sac but with the same result. Any ideas about what I am doing wrong?
Thank you in advance for the help.
Ken

    The error message means that the binary is not there.

    What do you get, if you do:
    ls -l /usr/local/sac/bin

    There should be a file "sac" that is executable.
    If it's not there, then maybe you got the source code package from
    IRIS. You need to compile that (or get the precompiled binary).

    ciao
