Hello,

One of my student has installed Prism on her machine under Ubuntu and when running prism, she got the following message :

Error: Could not find or load main class prism.PrismCL
caused by : java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: prism.PrismCL

I have redone togther with her the installation both from binary and source files and always get this error message...

I have seen that some people have this problem under windows, but never under linux...

Has anyone got an idea on what I should look at to help her solve this issue ?

Thank you for your help.

Best regards,

Arnaud Sangnier

Thanks Ramesh.

Arnaud, I'm not sure what the problem is exactly. To debug, from within
the 'prism' subdirectory:

- check that either classes/prism/PrismCL.class (if compiled from
source) or lib/prism.jar (if running a binary version) exist

- check that the setting of "PRISM_DIR" at the top of bin/prism looks
correct

- try running 'bash -x bin/prism' for possible additional clues about
what is happening (and/or send us the output from that).

Best wishes,

Dave
