[kepler-dev] Re: Kepler installation problem (red hat)

[Haiyan Yang]

Hi, 

I edited the "kepler.sh" file as you said.  (BTW, I'm using linux red hat).

I also did something like this:
export PTII=/home/haiyan/289F/Proj/ptII4.0.1
export KEPLER=/home/haiyan/289F/Proj/kepler


Now after typed "./kepler.sh", first, I go the same line:

Opening user library /home/haiyan/.ptolemyII/UserLibrary.xml... Done

The window "Kepler: A System for Scienfific Workflows" poped up.  I then
clicked the "ENM (GARP) Workflows" link, then click the "Baseline 3-Actor
GARP - Browser Display" link, another window poped up with some work flow,
looks like it's opening the "garpModel.xml" file.  I can see SDF Director
and other actors on this window.  

Does this mean it's installed correctly?  If yes, how do I open an
interface (something like vergil) to create my own workflow later?  


Another problem: I had installed Ptolemy before and it worked perfect. 
After I tried to install Kepler yesterday and failed, I can't open vergil
any more.  It gave me an error like this:

[...bin]$ vergil
"/opt/java/jdk1.5.0_01/bin/java" -Xmx256M "-Dptolemy.ptII.dir=" -classpath
":/lib/diva.jar:/home/haiyan/289F/Proj/ptII4.0.1/lib/ptCal.jar:/home/haiyan/289F/Proj/ptII4.0.1/lib/java_cup.jar:/home/haiyan/289F/Proj/ptII4.0.1/lib/sootclasses.jar:/home/haiyan/289F/Proj/ptII4.0.1/lib/jasminclasses.jar:/opt/java/jdk1.5.0_01/jre/lib/rt.jar:/home/haiyan/289F/Proj/ptII4.0.1/lib/ptjacl.jar:/home/haiyan/289F/Proj/ptII4.0.1/lib/jython.jar::/home/haiyan/289F/Proj/ptII4.0.1/lib/mapss.jar:/lib/saxon7.jar:"
ptolemy.vergil.VergilApplication
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
ptolemy/vergil/VergilApplication


What's wrong with this?  Should I have Ptolemy work properly in order for
Kepler to work?


Thanks.
