Glade 3.20.will not work with LinuxCNC , please follow this for 3.8.6

I changed to the other side and give rules for others how and what to programm. Beside plc and scada systems i also get some very special Linux embedded systems made.

So hacking myself is mostly hobby, and I'm not in knowledge anymore.

ok maybe i figured it out - but i couldn't really test it because i don't have an installed system.

open a terminal and type:
export GLADE_CATALOG_PATH="PYTHON TO GLADEVCP"

changing PYTHON TO GLADEVCP to the location of the installed gladevcp folder
should be something like /usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/gladevcp

then type:
glade-gtk2 and see what happens (or post what happens)

THX

More or less nothing ;-(

cnc@MeBigCNC3:~$ export GLADE_CATALOG_PATH="PYTHON TO GLADEVCP
> ^C
cnc@MeBigCNC3:~$ glade-gtk2
bash: glade-gtk2: Kommando nicht gefunden.
cnc@MeBigCNC3:~$ ^C
cnc@MeBigCNC3:~$

Mike you must follow all my instructions.

PYTHON TO GLADEVCP must be substituted with the actual path
You must look up that path on your system first.

That is what I can see under adjustments:

OH, i missunderstood completely
Sorry, I'm a unskilled nerd in Linux.... How to handle PATH in linux ... Sorry

I fear something basic is not jet fulfilled

I found and see some files in usr/share

cnc@MeBigCNC3:~$ linuxcnc_var all
LINUXCNCVERSION=2.8.0-pre1-3575-g8ca6b52eb
LINUXCNC_AUX_GLADEVCP=/usr/share/linuxcnc/aux_gladevcp
LINUXCNC_AUX_EXAMPLES=/usr/share/linuxcnc/aux_examples
REALTIME=/etc/init.d/realtime
RTS=uspace
HALLIB_DIR=/usr/share/linuxcnc/hallib
cnc@MeBigCNC3:~$

And last I used MC to search the entire system for gladevcp and tried this without success

cnc@MeBigCNC3:~$
cnc@MeBigCNC3:~$ export GLADE_CATALOG_PATH=/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages
cnc@MeBigCNC3:~$ linuxcnc_var all
LINUXCNCVERSION=2.8.0-pre1-3575-g8ca6b52eb
LINUXCNC_AUX_GLADEVCP=/usr/share/linuxcnc/aux_gladevcp
LINUXCNC_AUX_EXAMPLES=/usr/share/linuxcnc/aux_examples
REALTIME=/etc/init.d/realtime
RTS=uspace
HALLIB_DIR=/usr/share/linuxcnc/hallib
cnc@MeBigCNC3:~$ export GLADE_CATALOG_PATH="/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages"
cnc@MeBigCNC3:~$ linuxcnc_var all
LINUXCNCVERSION=2.8.0-pre1-3575-g8ca6b52eb
LINUXCNC_AUX_GLADEVCP=/usr/share/linuxcnc/aux_gladevcp

cnc@MeBigCNC3:~$

THX a lot for your patience

Hallo Mike,

I am quite sure, that you did not follow my WIKI step by step.

What files are in the following directories?
What do you get if you do: does glade open? Look in help or info for the release number


any errors?

look for one widget in your system, i.e.
(hope syntax of find is correct, this is from my company PC
all in a terminal.
