Thanks. I tried installing Maxima from sourceforge. This didn't help, although I don't know if would be expected to.
I'd be interested to know if anyone else is able to run Sage on OS X El Capitan. Might an older version work? Or is the Maxima problem independent of the Sage version? E.g. this page says "The binaries for SageMath 6.10.beta7 will work": http://ask.sagemath.org/question/31422/what-is-the-status-of-sage-on-os-x-1011-el-capitan/ Paul On Wednesday, August 24, 2016 at 9:37:49 PM UTC+1, Robert Dodier wrote: > > On 2016-08-24, Paul Johnson <pcdjo...@gmail.com <javascript:>> wrote: > > > File > "/Applications/SageMath-7.3.app/Contents/Resources/sage/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/sage/interfaces/maxima_lib.py", > > line 105, in <module> > > ecl_eval("(set-locale-subdir)") > > File "sage/libs/ecl.pyx", line 1315, in sage.libs.ecl.ecl_eval > (/Applications/SageMath-7.3.app/Contents/Resources/sage/src/build/cythonized/sage/libs/ecl.c:10158) > > > > File "sage/libs/ecl.pyx", line 1330, in sage.libs.ecl.ecl_eval > (/Applications/SageMath-7.3.app/Contents/Resources/sage/src/build/cythonized/sage/libs/ecl.c:10097) > > > > File "sage/libs/ecl.pyx", line 343, in sage.libs.ecl.ecl_safe_eval > (/Applications/SageMath-7.3.app/Contents/Resources/sage/src/build/cythonized/sage/libs/ecl.c:5162) > > > > RuntimeError: ECL says: The function SET-LOCALE-SUBDIR is undefined. > > Well, Sage is punting 'solve' to Maxima, and it looks like Maxima isn't > loaded correctly or something.
