Entry point of Momentics for Linux?   
I just installed Momentics Lite for Linux on Fedora 9. Unlike Fedora 7, the installer did not create a launch icon, or 
add any items to the start menu. What is the entry point to start the IDE? The directory tree that it puts under /opt is
 very deep. I tried searching for executable binary files using "find -perm o=x" and came up dry. Typing the obvious 
things at the console, like "qnx" and "momentics" does nothing.

Thx,
-J

PS: The GUI part of the installer doesn't work, either. I had to use the -console switch to get it to work at all.

look for 'qde', it should be in your $QNX_HOST/usr/qde/eclipse directory.

Actually it should be in $QNX_HOST/usr/bin/qde
one in eclipse won't set license properly.

qde should be in your PATH

Re: Entry point of Momentics for Linux?   
Please note,  Fedora 7 is a supported host for this baseline release, but Fedora 9 is not.

What was the error message when you tried installing in GUI mode?
Could you attach installOptionalLog.txt found in /tmp directory?

Thanks,
Natalia

The install error looks like this (a bunch of lines filled with dots deleted):

[jjuniman@localhost 6.3.2-linux-200709070203-x86]$ ./momentics-6.3.2-200709070203-linux.bin
InstallShield Wizard
Initializing InstallShield Wizard...
Preparing Java(tm) Virtual Machine...
...................................
................The installer is unable to run in graphical mode. Try running the installer with the -console or -silent
 flag.



The installation works if you use the -console flag but it won't run. (See error below). Nonetheless, I have to use it, 
due to something else I'm working on. That project takes precedence right now.



[jjuniman@localhost ~]$ cd /opt/qnx632/host/linux/x86/usr/bin
[jjuniman@localhost bin]$ ./qde
/usr/bin/env: ksh: No such file or directory
[jjuniman@localhost bin]$

Re: Entry point of Momentics for Linux?   
That was a bug, this linux disto does not come with ksh, please fix first line of this script to use #!/bin/sh instead.
(qde script)

Re: Entry point of Momentics for Linux?   
I changed the reference to ksh and installed a bunch of missing libraries. It still bombs out when you start it up & 
complains to a log file, but I don't have any more time to play with this right now.

Re: Entry point of Momentics for Linux?   
There should be a shell script

  /opt/qnx640/run_qde.sh

Note that Fedora 9 is not an "officially supported" platform and there
are a variety of known issues.  (For example, there are known problems
with Lesstif, and you may need to install OpenMotif [PR59062].)  It's
possible that you'd have better luck with a CentOS or one of the Ubuntu
variants, but I haven't tried them myself.

Regards,
Neil
