Hi,
I've been trying to install the new topspin (3.6.1) onto a centos
7 computer. So far only the processing, but eventually converting
our spectrometers too. I used the instructions on the web site for
adding the Bruker add-on repository, and installation did not seem
to run into any problems, and things mostly work (so far as we've
seen so far).
One item that does NOT work is the tab in the PUBLISH section
labeled E-MAIL, which normally creates a zip file and then opens a
mail client. In fact, the 3.6.1 topspin does do that on a centos 5
system. With centos 7, it gives an error message saying it can't
find an email client on the system, and doesn't create the zip file.
I've in fact installed various email clients, tried configuring user
environment, used different desktops, tried adding various
additional items to centos (with yum) to no effect. I don't need it
to email the data, I just want it to create the zip file. I would
personally have no objection to running zip manually from a terminal
window, but not all our users would be comfortable with that.
Besides, if there is some OS component missing, it could show up
elsewhere, when we come to install on our spectrometers.
The expanded error message is:
