[Pw_forum] Problem with XSpectra installation

[Balaji V]

Dear Ari P Seitsonen,

Pw examples works fine... even xspectra works fine... but the given
examples doesn't work..
when i run the "run_example_diamond" file while executing the following
command the terminal quits..

# check for executables
for FILE in $BIN_LIST ; do
    if test ! -x $BIN_DIR/$FILE ; then
        $ECHO
        $ECHO "ERROR: $BIN_DIR/$FILE not existent or not executable"
        $ECHO "Aborting"
        !exit 1
    fi
done

# check for pseudopotentials
for FILE in $PSEUDO_LIST ; do
    if test ! -r $PSEUDO_DIR/$FILE ; then
        $ECHO
        $ECHO "ERROR: $PSEUDO_DIR/$FILE not existent or not readable"
        $ECHO "Aborting"
        exit 1
    fi
done
$ECHO " done"

i use ubuntu 12.04.. i feel like there is some problem in defining
directory of input files...

But xspectra works fine..

Thanks and Regards,

Dear Balaji.V,

   I guess that _something_ is written when you execute the example; did
you manage to run the examples of 'PW' for example? Otherwise please send
_all_ the output, including the command line to run it, and any output.
Otherwise we can only guess for what is going on.

     Greetings,

        apsi
