INSTALL document is wrong #86

Closed PSLLSP closed 9 years ago

PSLLSP commented 10 years ago

INSTRUCTION from documenation https://github.com/googlecreativelab/coder/blob/master/INSTALL:

  1. Install the basic Coder apps.

    cd coder-apps

    ./install_common.sh

REALITY (script excepts a parameter):

user@pc:~/coder/coder-apps$ ./install_common.sh

Use: install_common coderbase

I'm having the same issue. install_common.sh does not work correctly.

jmstriegel commented 9 years ago

You'll want to run ./install_common.sh ../coder-base (I've fixed this in the doc). This pushes the default apps into the coder-base directory where your code is executed.

Note that the easiest way to get things running is to use the pre-made coder build for raspberry pi. Configuring the OS from scratch to support run on boot, wifi settings, and the coder-config adhoc network is unfortunately a non-trivial process if you're not already familiar with Linux administration.

Thanks. The main goal for me was to just get it running on a normal desktop so that I could evaluate it for our program.
