Hi. I run a program by launching a script: ./runLime.sh Fine. But I want a one click icon.

Have you tried /path/to/the/script/runLime.sh (ie. without the . dir)?

Yes. It doesn't work either.

...

What are the permissions of runLime.sh?

-rwxrwxr-x 1 clara users 441 Oct 18 16:06 runLime.sh

...

In which directory is runLime.sh?

It's in my home directory: /home/clara/LimeWire

Have you tried adding this directory to

...

your path, if it is not already in it?

echo $PATH /home/clara/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/bin:/usr/games:/opt /gnome/bin:/opt/kde3/bin:/opt/kde2/bin:/usr/lib/java/bin:/opt/gnome/bin No, it's not in the path but if I specify the full route it shouldn't need to be no? Do you think that this is the problem? If not, how do I change the path?

Any Ideas? Thanks for your patience, Steve.

Hi #!/bin/sh is the same thing as bash. It is the command interpreter, that is transalating the script into machine-language, roughly speaking... It is usually needed in scripts, so that the correct interpreter is used with that script. I believe that there will be someone that can be able to help You further, because I'm not so familiar with Java, and possible error that You have...sorry.

Jaska.

No. Here is the file:

#!/bin/sh # # Runs LimeWire. This script must be executed in your LimeWire # install directory. # # We must set the J2SE_PREEMPTCLOSE environment variable to 1 to # work around some limitations in the JDK1.3. For more information # see http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/relnotes.html#vm # CLASSPATH=".:collections.jar:xerces.jar:jl011.jar:MessagesBundles.jar" export CLASSPATH J2SE_PREEMPTCLOSE=1 export J2SE_PREEMPTCLOSE java -jar RunLime.jar

And here is the directory entry: ls *.sh runLime.sh

What is the sh shell?

A shell script needs <#include drum-roll.h>

Yes, a /shell/! Try to find the option for "run in a shell".

Theo

I can find 'run in a terminal' but 'not run in a shell'. drum-roll.h? OK I give up. I'll just type it in an x-term! Thanks anyway. Steve.

Make a script to run a script. The script 'runLime.sh' needs to be executed in the LimeWire directory.

- - - script to run LimeWire - - - #!/bin/bash cd /your/directory/to/LimeWire runLime.sh exit

Thanks. Worked first time! Steve

Of course, you could have just added the 'cd /...etc' line into the top of the 'runLime.sh' script and make a link to it in your $HOME directory or some other directory in your $PATH. Your choice.

Thanks. It's better like that. Now let's go for those mp3's.
