Working on MacOs10.4 computer, after several unsuccessful installations of ifeffit package....I have the following message when I try to run Athena from the Terminal window. I downloaded Tk-804.027.tar and installed it in "temp" directory, but I still have the same message...have you ever had this error?
Why there were "several unsuccessful installations"? Could you tell us with more precision what you tried to install and in what way it was unsuccessful? The installer should work. Why did it not?
I downloaded Tk-804.027.tar and installed it in "temp" directory, but I still have the same message...have you ever had this error?
What was installing it in a "temp" directory meant to do? It needs to go under /Library/Perl/. Anyway, you do NOT need to install perl/Tk yourself.
Can't load '/Library/Perl/5.8.6/darwin-thread-multi-2level/auto/Tk/Tk.bundle' for module Tk: dlopen(/Library/Perl/5.8.6/darwin-thread-multi-2level/auto/Tk/Tk.bundle, 1): Library not loaded: /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.6.dylib
From a terminal, what does ~> perl -e 'use Tk;'
report? It should return with no messages. If perl cannot find Tk, it will give a message similar to what you saw. If you do get such a message, you'll want to look under /Library/Perl for the Tk code (probably under /Library/Perl/5.8.6). The installer should install files into /Applications/Ifeffit and /Library/Perl. If it hasn't, please investigate why. Mac users please note that the installer is supposed to work and works for many people. You do not need to install perl/Tk yourself. If the installer does not work, please be clear about: a) what happened during the install b) what is under /Applications/Ifeffit AND /Library/Perl --Matt
