[Gate-users] Gate install, final step

[Jerome Crocco]

Hello Gate Users,

I am new to the linux OS, and have learned a great deal in the past week only trying to install Gate and its dependencies.  so Great.

==The background
I have worked out allof the kinks in the install of Geant4, CLHEP, and other packages required, which are listed on gateopencollaboration.org for Gate_V6.2.  I am also using the recommended CLHEP 2.1.1.0, and geant 4.9.5.p01, which are recommended just to be safe.  Also I am working on a virtual Ubuntu 13.04 64 bit machine with 100gB of fixed space.  I have uninstalled, and re-installed ubuntu for a fresh clean install of Gate and all dependencies.

===the Problem
So...the problem is this, all the way at the end of the installation of GATE_6.2 itself:
1)  When I ''ccmake'' from my '/gate_v6.2-build'' directory, everything is fine.  no errors.  I configure all is great.
2)  when I make ( i have but no longer specify -jN just in case, I have seen there were some problems with 6.1), again, it seems to complete and I get message ''ROOT INSTALL SUCCESSFUL'' 'Run Make Install Now''.
3)  When I run Make install, it seems to install programs into various directories.  

PROBLEM=  Is it?  When I open the directory '/gate_v6.2-install' the directory is EMPTY.  There is not a single folder.  Furthermore, after I run bash to set environmental variables, I cannot load GATE. 

Can someone please help me resolve this issue.  It has taken a while to get to this last stage, it would be a shame to be defeated by the Linux OS at this last step.

Thanks,

Jerome
