you need to set the environment $GATEHOME in your <tt>.cshrc</tt> file. <table width=100%> <tr valign=top> <td> <td>danieljw@phas.ubc.ca Sent by: gate-users-bounces@lists.healthgrid.org 05/14/2007 07:04 PM <td>                To:        gate-users@lists.healthgrid.org         cc:                 Subject:        Re: [Gate-users] GATE installation</table> <tt>Hi, I have installed GATE and run the introductory tutorial and everything seems fine. The problem is I have been trying to set up   Gate so that it is properly configured every time I login. For example if I try to run Gate in my home directory I get: /home.mirg/danieljw> pwd /home.mirg/danieljw /home.mirg/danieljw> Gate ************************************************************* Geant4 version Name: geant4-08-01-patch-02    (10-November-2006)                      Copyright : Geant4 Collaboration                      Reference : NIM A 506 (2003), 250-303                            WWW : http://cern.ch/geant4 ************************************************************* GateMDBFile::GateMDBFile:        Could not open material database file 'GateMaterials.db'.        Computation aborted. *** G4Exception: Aborting execution *** Abort /home.mirg/danieljw> If I cd to /home.mirg/danieljw/GATE/gate_v3.1.1 which contains all of the Gate files including 'GateMaterials.db': GATE/gate_v3.1.1> pwd /home.mirg/danieljw/GATE/gate_v3.1.1 GATE/gate_v3.1.1> ls add_to_env_gate.txt  examples              gateSingles.dat  README benchmarks           G4History.macro       GNUmakefile      ReleaseNotes.pdf bin                  Gate.cc               include          src Cluster_Tools        gateCoincidences.dat  license          Surfaces.xml env_gate.csh         gate_make.txt         Materials.xml    tmp env_gate.csh~        GateMaterials.db      noverbose.mac    work env_gate.sh          gateRun.dat           prerunGate.mac GATE/gate_v3.1.1> Then Gate runs fine. If I try and run Gate anywhere else I get the same problem as above. Does anyone have any suggestions? I have pasted the relevant part of my .cshrc file below. Thanks for the help.
