`installCabbage` fails silently #126

Closed brylie closed 2 years ago

brylie commented 2 years ago

When trying to install Cabbage for Linux, I run the sudo ./installCabbage from within the extracted zip folder. However, nothing seems to happen, and there is no error message: Peek 2021-10-16 10-12

Please ensure there is some user feedback for any error(s) arising from the installation process.

Environment

rorywalsh commented 2 years ago

What branch are you on? The cmake branch is where the latest improvements to the Linux build system is. As you can see from the script, it does print relevant information.

Yes, my bad. For this issue, I had run the ./installCabbage command from the zip file I downloaded via the Downloads page.

In any case, I believe it is important that any failure result in meaningful output for the end-user, in order to help them troubleshoot and resolve the issue(s).

I'll be releasing a new version shortly, based on the new build system. It will feature the current installer script, which is an improvement on that one.
