[Gate-users] GATE Docker container now available !

[Parisa Khateri]

Dear Maxime,

Thank you for your reply.

Actually, I tried to open the file with Root v6-08-06 installed on my laptop. But it also failed there. I thought the reason was the difference in the versions. Because the Root version in the container is 6.1/02. Do you think this could be reason?

I pulled the Gate container on an HPC. I cannot install those packages in there.

Kind regards,
Parisa

Dear Parisa,

ROOT needs some packages to be installed on the system if you want to use more than its libraries.
You can install them using this command:
yum -y install libX11-devel libXpm-devel libXft-devel libXext-devel

But keep in mind that the docker container is intended for computing, not for data analysis or visualisation.

Kind regards,
  Maxime Chauvin

Dear Maxime, dear Joao,

I tried to pull it on a HPC using shifter (instead of Docker). Then I ran a simple Gate simulation without an error but when I attempt to run root to open the simulation root file I get this error:

root: error while loading shared libraries: libSM.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I checked and found this library doesn't exist in the /cern/root-install/lib/ directory.
Could it be because of an inappropriate installation?

Thank you and kind regards,
Parisa

Dear Maxime,


I followed your instructions and I got my first Gate installation successfully.

This docker approach seems to be very useful.


Thank you very much.

Best regards,

João Marcos
