[Gate-users] error in installation

[David Boersma]

Hi Maryam,

(Sorry, I first mailed this only to you, but I intended to reply to the 
list.)

In the same shell where you are going to run cmake (or ccmake) you first 
should run the "source /path/to/ROOT/bin/thisroot.sh" command (and same 
for geant4.sh). Did you do that?

Sourcing the thisroot.sh file only configures your current shell (in the 
current tab in the current terminal window) to use the corresponding 
version of ROOT. It does *not* configure that for all other currently 
running, or any future shells that you will ever start on your system. 
If the latter is what you actually want/expect, and you are sure that 
you will always use the same version of ROOT, then you could consider 
adding that command to your ".bash_profile" file (some people use 
.bashrc for that, but there is a subtle reason why that is less good).

(And please be very very careful when hacking your .bash* files: if you 
do it wrong then you may inadvertently disable your own login and you 
need help from someone with sysadmin (sudo) privileges to fix that.)

HTH,
David

> I define the Root path in the screen before configuration, but I don't know why it doesn't work? Also, I couldn't install binary distribution of Root for ubuntu16.04, because it didn't make Cmakelist.text, I had to install source distribution of Root.
