Hello,I seem to be stuck installing IRAF on a machine running Suse 9.1.The installation itself went well, and the INSTALL script executed without complaint. Butwhen I try to login to IRAF (as user iraf) by typing cl in the user's home directory, I get "command not found."Nor can I invoke mkiraf in any user's home directory: "command not found."And I can't find cl or mkiraf in /usr/local/bin or anywhere else on the machine.I've run the install script two or three times, including as root, with the same results.This is my third or fourth IRAF installation, but the first time running Suse (previous installations have been with RedHat 7.1), and I'm about out of ideas.Thanks,
Arthur

"Command not found" usually just means the "local bin directory" you specified when you ran the install script isn't in your path. If the commands actually exist in /usr/local/bin then follow the link to be sure you can read the path, e.g. try to page the file. If that doesn't work, check the path of the link is correct, but the install script should have caught this.Lastly, are you sure the install script was run [b:8bb317d0a4]WITHOUT[/b:8bb317d0a4] the "-n" flag? This is the no-op flag so you can see what happens, but more than one person has forgotten to run the install script without this flag after seeing what happens.-Mike
