The ccp4 gui has an option that allows one to specify which executable
to run. I allways forget how to get there.

From the phenix gui there is no problem, it uses the absolute path for
executables, and (as far as I know) phaser is invoked from within
python.

Most interesting mmtbx and iotbx commands can be accessed as
phenix.something. We also have things like phenix.solve,
phenix.resolve and phenix.reduce, which setup all the enviromental
variables +etc when you run it.
Furthermore, any executable in phenix can be executed as
phenix.something_XXX
where XXX is a version number. This works for phaser as well.
try
phaser_1.26b
and see what happens.

Hi, surprisingly I've not seen this question on either BB -- or else nobody
have both packages installed simultaneously (surely not????)





Both ccp4 and phenix have a version of Phaser (v1.3.3 and v2 respectively).
Each is (?) incompatible with the other's GUI, yet in a simultaneous
install, only one can be on the PATH.
 a) Are the executables very different?  (v1.3.3 and v2.0 for ccp4 and
phaser respectively.)  v2 has an older release date...
 b) How can one fix the path to make both executables available to the
shell?
 c) The same problem affects mmtbx and cctbx etc.


Shouldn't the ccp4 versions maybe get different names?

phx.
