Hi folks

I am trying to install and run the latest release of SAC on
linux boxes (32 bit), running either Suse 9 or 10, but it doesn' work.
The error messages I get are vey similar to the posting by
Steve below (from a few months ago) which has not been answered.
Who has the solution?

- sac installed in /opt/sac
- environment variables set to
  export SACDIR='/opt/sac'
  export SACAUX='/opt/sac/aux'
  export SACGRAPHICS=xwindows
  export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$LD_LIBRARY_PATH":/opt/matlab-6.5.1/extern/lib/glnx86

- starting sac, oit bombs out immediately, telling me
   ERROR: Number  901 in INITCOMLISTS.
   Problems opening Command List: /opt/sac/aux/clsss

- changing permissions to stuff in /opt/sac/aux results in the
  error message "segmentation fault" (see posting below)

WHAT AM I DOING WRONG??

THANKS
Martin




PREVIOUS POSTING:


I am trying to run sac ver 100.0 from IRIS under linux fedora core 3.

I installed the program in /usr/local/bin/sac (as root). I then had to 
change permissions on csspickpref, clstd, clspe, and clsss in 
/usr/local/bin/sac/aux as I could not read when I was logged in as myself. 
Once I had done this I got a 'segmentation fault'.

I have the SACAUX environment variable set and when I tried the same 
procedure on a system running redhat 9  I got exactly the same result.

Has anyone experienced this before and can explain what I need to do?
