Hi Soma,
It looks like your Linux system does not find the coot executables.
There are several ways to fix this problem (setting the path, adding an
alias, linking executables to a directory in the PATH, putting a script
in one of the directories in the PATH). I prefer the last approach for
coot and I give my coot start-up script (for bash). Instructions are at
the beginning:
#!/bin/sh
# Usage: Define the correct location of coot as COOT_MASTER and
# save this script to a file (e.g. 'coot') in a directory
# listed in your $PATH e.g. /usr/local/bin or /home/$USER/bin
COOT_MASTER=/path/to/coot/
export PATH=$PATH:${COOT_MASTER}/bin
exec ${COOT_MASTER}/bin/coot "$@"
Cheers,
christian
