<html><head></head><body>Installmgr attempts to install modules to your primary SWORD module folder. There is a priority order in which this folder is found. CWD is higher priority, the SWORD_PATH env variable, some other locations, and also location set in /etc/sword.conf. there's a readme somewhere with the lookup order. My guess is that it was using /etc/sword.conf and trying to install to /usr,/share/sword which you don't have permission without sudo.<br>

Hope this helps.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">yvand <yvand.sword@gmail.com> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
<pre class="k9mail">Hi all,<br /><br />I tried to install modules from command line (for first time).<br />Finally I found in the wiki some samples and manage to install modules!<br /><br />But I think installmgr does not behave properly.<br />If you run :<br />rm -r ~/.sword<br />echo yes | installmgr -init<br />echo yes | installmgr -r CrossWire<br />echo yes | installmgr -rl CrossWire<br />echo yes | installmgr -ri CrossWire KJV<br />It won't install KJV (try installmgr -l or diatheke) ! You will see no <br />errors.<br />You need to create ~/.sword/mods.d and set $SWORD_PATH to ~/.sword !<br />In my opinion this is odd, installmgr should at least say "give me a <br />directory in which I can work", output an error if mods.d does not <br />exists and not download all the files...<br /><br />Moreover the first 3 commands does uses ~/.sword automatically and <br />creates subdirectories automatically...<br /><br />I am running sword svn version.<br />Did I miss something? Is this a normal behaviour?<br /><br />Regards,<br />yvand<br /><br /><br /><hr /><br />sword-devel mailing list: sword-devel@crosswire.org<br /><a href="http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel">http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel</a><br />Instructions to unsubscribe/change your settings at above page<br /></pre></blockquote></div><br>
