Solved by # mv /bin/sh /bin/sh_original
# ln -s /bin/bash /bin/sh now ls -l sh -> /bin/bash and mopac does its job. Hopefully, this should also allow the hundreds of other codes inside the main code to work, if the same problem occurs. However, I would like to have the opinion of "those who know" if this is the correct way of doing and why with wheezy this change. thanks francesco pietra ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Francesco Pietra <[email protected]> Date: Fri, Jul 1, 2011 at 7:48 PM Subject: /bin/sh linked to dash? To: amd64 Debian <[email protected]> I wonder whether amd64 wheezy links /bin/sh to dash instead of bash. I am getting error "Bad fd number, can't run mopac.h" in a mopac.sh calculation (mopac compiled fortran, in fact a FOR005 file is generated, and not deleted by mopac probably because it was running bad). I am asking that (and thus if a symlink is needed using bash, as in my case) because with the same code (and same calculation) I had no such error with amd64 lenny. I have just copied the whole molecular-mechanics compiled code (which includes mopac among hundreds of other codes) from a lenny machine to a wheezy machine. The reason of the copy is that the molecular-mechanics code can't be compiled with recent gcc/fortran (its loose fortran is not allowed by recent compilers) while the wheezy cuda machine is far faster than the old cpu machine. thanks francesco pietra -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
