Failure to install

[CdeMills]

Hello, I would like to create a notebook with Maxima. The platform is x86_64 linux machine with Fedora35. 1) installed maxima-runtime-sbcl-5.43.2-5.fc35.x86_64 + maxima-5.43.2-5.fc35.x86_64 2) installed sbcl-2.0.1-5.fc34.x86_64 3) cloned the jupyter-maxima repository and cd() into it 4) launched maxima: Maxima 5.43.2 http://maxima.sourceforge.net using Lisp SBCL 2.0.1-5.fc34 Distributed under the GNU Public License. See the file COPYING. Dedicated to the memory of William Schelter. The function bug_report() provides bug reporting information. (%i1) load("load-maxima-jupyter.lisp"); ; ; compilation unit aborted ; caught 1 fatal ERROR condition

loadfile: failed to load load-maxima-jupyter.lisp -- an error. To debug this try: debugmode(true);

How to debug further ? I have no idea why the unit fails to compile.

Hi Pascal, sorry to hear it doesn't work for you.

(1) Please execute maxima, and in the Maxima console, enter:

:lisp (require 'asdf)

What does it say in response?

(2) In the Maxima console, please enter:

:lisp (load "load-maxima-jupyter.lisp")

What does it say?

Thanks for any info, Robert

Hello Robert, thank you for kind reply. Here you are:

Maxima 5.43.2 http://maxima.sourceforge.net using Lisp SBCL 2.0.1-5.fc34 Distributed under the GNU Public License. See the file COPYING. Dedicated to the memory of William Schelter. The function bug_report() provides bug reporting information. (%i1) :lisp (require 'asdf)

(uiop UIOP asdf ASDF) (%i1) :lisp (load "load-maxima-jupyter.lisp") While evaluating the form starting at line 14, column 0 of Maxima encountered a Lisp error:

Component :MAXIMA-JUPYTER not found

Automatically continuing. To enable the Lisp debugger set debugger-hook to nil.

There is another session:

(%i1) :lisp (require 'asdf)

(uiop UIOP asdf ASDF)

(%i1) :lisp (load "maxima-jupyter.asd")

T :lisp (load "load-maxima-jupyter.lisp")

P"load-maxima-jupyter.lisp":

While evaluating the form starting at line 14, column 0 of Maxima encountered a Lisp error:

Component :ALEXANDRIA not found, required by #<SYSTEM "maxima-jupyter">

Looks like quicklisp does not automatically pull the required files

Quicklisp automatically installs dependencies, so something is wrong. I suggest starting SCBL and trying (ql:quickload :common-lisp-jupyter)

[CdeMills]

OK, found the right sequence: 1) install quicklisp 2) launch maxima, then (%i1) :lisp (load "~/quicklisp/setup.lisp")

T (%i1) :lisp (load "load-maxima-jupyter.lisp")

... This fetches a few packages through quicklisp

(%i1) jupyter_install()

Thank you for your help.

Regards

Pascal

Pascal, I'm glad to hear you got it sorted out. It occurs to me that it would be good to have load-maxima-jupyter.lisp verify that Quicklisp and ASDF are present before trying to do anything. Let me think about that.

Dear Robert,

the fix is quite simple with SBCL. Create a file .sbclrc in your $HOME with content: (require 'asdf) (load "~/quicklisp/setup.lisp")

That's it. Those two lines pre-load the asdf tool and enable the quicklisp subsystem. Plain and square.

Now ... the combination of Maxima and Jupyter provides beautifull results. Great work.

Regards

Pascal
