ROOT
1

HI,
i installed ROOT on my mac but when i try to run my script i get this error:

“Error in TApplication::ExecuteFile: macro test_debug.c not found in path .:/Applications/root/macros:”

i don’t know what to do.

2

and where is this script? In your current directory or in /Applications/root/macros?

the script is in a folder in the documents directory…

In that case you have to specify the full path or add your Document path to ~/.rootrc, like:

Root.MacroPath: .:$(ROOTSYS)/macros:/Users/xxxx/Documents

Cheers, Fons.

You have to create this file, it does not exist before.

Cheers, Fons.

Exume me, but i can put my file into this directory: root/macros, it is all right?
