So I got Dwarf Therapist for Linux, but it doesn't work when I click the run file. Nothing pops up.
Can anyone help?

[OddTheTall]

Did you install it through your distro's package manager? If so, try opening a terminal and typing 'dwarftherapist' into it. This will also spit out any errors if it is failing to run for whatever reason. Alternatively, run

Code: [Select]

locate dwarftherapist in terminal then type

Code: [Select]

./path/to/dwarf/therapist/binary As above, this will allow you to see debugging information in the terminal.

Hope this helps

This would be more appropriate for the Therapist thread in the modding section.

Sorry about that, I didn't see the thread.
"bash: locate: command not found"
I'm using Puppy Linux, so I'm not sure if they have the same commands...

lol, never mind i forgot the slash

Do this:

$ sudo apt-get install qt4-qmake qt4-dev-tools

$ hg clone https://dwarftherapist.googlecode.com/hg/ dwarftherapist

$ cd dwarftherapist

$ qmake

$ make

Then navigate to the DT folder, into bin/release, and make a new folder called 'log' there. Go back to the original DT folder, find 'etc', and copy that folder from there over into bin/release. Startup the dwarftherapist.sh file in that folder.

do i type that into the terminal?

[DrKillPatient]

Yes. Not the $, though, that's just indicating the new line. Just copy/paste the lines after the $-- also, the second line's space before 'dwarftherapist' is not an error. Leave it like that, even though it looks broken.

"bash: sudo: command not found"

[DrKillPatient]

Ah, apparently puppy runs as root by default, so sudo doesn't exist. Just remove sudo from the lines and run them, it should go along with admin privileges automatically.

[PFactorial]

"bash: apt-get: command not found"

[DrKillPatient]

Oh dear. It seems Puppy doesn't use apt-get, rpm maybe? These instructions are for Ubuntu/debian and so on, I'm not sure about Puppy at all to be honest. Try skipping that line... you might have those dependencies.

I'm using Ubuntu (11.04) and followed the above instructions to run Dwarf therapist.  The installation worked, and it runs, but when trying to pull data from Dwarf Fortress, it fails to connect, and the terminal returns the error "ptrace attach: Operation not permitted
"  Any ideas?  Is this because Dwarf Therapist hasn't caught up yet?

Thanks in advance for the help.

It's because Ubuntu runs a security mechanism to prevent one program from messing with another program's memory, even if they run as the same user. Pretty sensible, really, there are few legitimate uses for that in the open source world - but hacking DF needs it.

I just run Dwarf Therapist/dfhack as root. I think there's also some kind of trick you can do to disable the security mechanism temporarily or permanently, but I haven't done that yet.
