Hello,

I have installed iraf (v2.12)on my laptop that runs suse 10.1 The installation scripts run with no problems but when created an iraf directory in my home directory, this is what i get:

home/user/iraf> mkiraf
mkiraf: Command not found.

I also tried to run mkiraf this way:

/home/user/iraf> /bin/csh /iraf/iraf/unix/hlib/mkiraf.csh
-- creating a new uparm directory
Terminal types: xgterm,xterm,gterm,vt640,vt100,etc.
Enter terminal type: xgterm
A new LOGIN.CL file has been created in the current directory.
You may wish to review and edit this file to change the defaults.

/home/user/iraf> /bin/csh /iraf/iraf/unix/hlib/cl.csh
os.zgtenv: cannot open `/usr/include/iraf.h'
task `cl' has no param file
Fatal startup error. CL dies.

Any ideas about what might be the problem?

Thank you!

Be sure you ran the install script, and without the '-n'
flag. It sounds as it the commands weren't actually installed,
or the place they were installed isn't in your path, and that
the /usr/include/iraf.h link doesn't exist or is invalid (i.e. you
didn't run as root or specified the wrong $iraf that the install
script should have warned about).

Thank you!
I run ./install without the -n and now it works fine!

Thank you again for the help!
