Default Fixed: Cannot install LV2

its the CollaB3

I've correctly cd to where the installer is, typed in CollaB3-Installer-1.0.0.sh (which is the exact filename) and CLI keeps saying Command not found? (sorry .sh command not found)

It is marked executable and I'm in the correct directory.

EDIT: I was typing this thing in and getting nowhere so I just did a copy and paste and it worked.

I triple checked when I was typing that it was exactly as listed in the directory.....argghhhh!! frustrating.

Done now

Just a quick FYI for you and anyone else who experiences this:

when you are in the directory where the command is, you have to tell Linux that the command is in the current directory by typing (in your case) ./CollaB3-Installer-1.0.0.sh

The period "." means the current directory and the "/" is the directory separator/marker.

As an example, if CollaB3-Installer-1.0.0.sh is in the folder Downloads/LV2, if you were in the Downloads folder, you would type: LV2/CollaB3-Installer-1.0.0.sh

If you are in the Downloads/LV2 folder, instead of typing LV2/CollaB3-Installer-1.0.0.sh, you replace "LV2" with the period, which tells Linux the command is in the current directory: ./CollaB3-Installer-1.0.0.sh

If you don't put ./ in front of the command, Linux looks for it in the places it looks for commands like cd or ls.

HTH

Thanks Pman - yep I tried that as well. Something must have been glitching with the keyboard??? when I ran the ./ and then PASTED in the command (copied from the download folder) it worked - when I tried typing it in it didn't????

Now I am finding Reaper is not "seeing" the .so file. Stand-alone version works though
