Hi. I’m trying to install ROOT root_v6.04.14.Linux-ubuntu14-x86_64-gcc4.8 on Ubuntu 15.10. After uncompress I do cd/root and ./configure --help obtaining: bash: ./configure: No such file or directory Could you please help me to fix it? Thanks a lot,

you meant [code]cd root[/code]without the slash. It might even be better to do [code]mkdir build cd build ../root/configure[/code] Cheers, Philippe. you meant cd rootwithout the slash. It might even be better to do mkdir build cd build ../root/configure Cheers, Philippe.

Thanks Philippe. Unfortunately, nothing changed: $ cd root/ $ mkdir build $ cd build $ ../root/configure bash: ../root/configure: No such file or directory $ ../../root/configure bash: ../../root/configure: No such file or directory Have you another suggestion?. I really appreciate your help. Tha…

Sorry but I don’t see a point here. I also tried with root_v5.34.34.Linux-ubuntu14-x86_64-gcc4.8 but the problem is exactly de same. Thanks, Luz

In both cases, you are downloading and unpacking a binary release for Ubuntu 14.04 (i.e. an already built version).

Hi, If you want to build root yourself (using configure or cmake), you should take the source code (e.g. root_v5.34.34.source.tar.gz) the binaries don’t contain the configure script… Cheers, Bertrand.

I made fool of my self. Now it seems to be working. Thanks a lot!!

Root-6.06.00 on Ubuntu 14.04 32 bit ROOT

I don’t have a solution, but you may try the following … recreate the “source tree” from scratch (so that no old building remnants are present) and then use a “build tree” which is separate from the “source tree” (do not build ROOT 6 “in place”) and use cmake (do not use “configure + make” for ROOT 6): cd /Where/You/Build/It unset ROOTSYS cmake -Dall="ON" -Dsoversion="ON" /Where/The/Source/Code/Is > cmake.out.txt 2>&1 cmake --build . >> cmake.out.txt
