I feel like the guy whose been sort of lost driving and has been sort of reluctant to ask for directions. I keep thinking I’m almost there, but I at a point where I’m posting this on the ubuntu forum. A summary of how I got to where I’m at.
- I’ve been wanting to get Java 6 setup on my machine to run the C-shell script for the Opencascade installer. I found an interest article on the web that made sense to me:http://www.antbook.org/display/antbook/Installing+Java+6+on+Ubuntu+7.04
I managed to set the environment variables to the bash shell successfully per his instructions but got real confused trying to set this up for the C-shell.
In this guys instructions he talks about the “simple matter” about adding Java properties to the file: /etc/csh/login.d/java
In my personal logic leads me to think that the /etc/csh/login.d would have been created at install or when I fire up csh in terminal. I suppose I could brute for and create the sub-folders, but my gut tells me that will not work. Am I wrong? I guess these are the questions I have:
- Is /etc/csh/login.d/ something that csh recognize out of the box?
- Do I need to manually create the folder for the file /etc/csh/login.d/java?
I found: The C shell tutor which talks about .cshrc .login .logout
I think all I need to do is to plot the setenv stuff is .cshrc
Is that correct?? Where is .cshrc located? - Do I need to manually create the folder for the file /etc/csh/login.d/java?
I posted this on Ubuntu forums…. See what happens http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=745954
I suppose I should probably update the database and see if I can answer my own questions. To create a database with the file names in the terminal go sudo updatedb, and after that Locate filename
jonas@jonas-desktop:~$ sudo updatedb
[sudo] password for jonas:
jonas@jonas-desktop:~$ locate .cshrc
jonas@jonas-desktop:~$ locate cshrc
jonas@jonas-desktop:~$
It doesn’t seem to be there…..more research req’d hopefully someone takes pity on me.
