My phone Explorer Linux Installation script!

[SirD]

The script is great, for the frist time MPE runs on my Ubuntu!

But I habe a problem. I cannot start it for a second time.

First time I started the script in a terminal and it installed and MPE runs automatically.

But now I get an error on xxx "Launch My Phone Explorer"
Kindprozess »/home/snak3/.wine/drive_c/MyPhoneExplorer/My Phone Explorer« konnte nicht ausgeführt werden (No such file or directory)

The name (my name) is not "snak3" and there is also no entry of "MyPhoneExplorer/My Phone Explorer" in my ".wine/drive_c" directory. There are only "system.reg, user.reg and userdef.reg". Nothing more!

If I start the script again, appears the notice
"My Phone Installer has already been installed..."

How do I start MPE now?

[weinbi]

I think there went something wrong...
I'll have a look at the new update of the installer-script later.

But if the installer knows the second time that it is already installed, somewhere should be the MyPhoneExplorer-directory.
Can you find it anywhere? If it's not in the .wine, it is maybe somewhere in your home dir?

hey there

Can you please uninstall MPE by typing the following into the terminal:

Code: Alles auswählen

perl MyPhoneInstaller2.8.sh -u

then:

Code: Alles auswählen

perl MyPhoneInstaller2.8.sh

And it should update its self. Run the new installer (2.9) and it should work perfecto

[SirD]

Yes, the first part worked, 2.9 is installed and runs fine, but how to start it again?

I get an error on xxx "Launch My Phone Explorer"
Kindprozess »/home/`whoami`/.wine/drive_c/MyPhoneExplorer/My Phone Explorer« konnte nicht ausgeführt werden (No such file or directory)

I could not find "My Phone Explorer" in the directories. (Yes, "hidden files show" is activated)!

Perhaps, before running the script I have to change "whoami" in "dn" (my name)?

[weinbi]

@s0l1dsnak3123:
Can't you use

Code: Alles auswählen

~/.wine

instead of

Code: Alles auswählen

/home/whateverthenameis/.wine

?

[s0l1dsnak3123]

No that doesn't work weinbi. SirD: Please update again

p.s I haven't checked it, but it should work now.

[SirD]

The script does not quite work as it should.

It is named "myphoneinstaller3.0.sh" but the content says 2.9. It can not install, while it refers to the version 3.0.
So I changed the content to 3.0 and then it worked.
(Is this really the new version)?

At the end of the installprocess there are these messages:

" 29 0x0c2474ff (0x0424448b)
30 0x00000000 (0x00000000)
fixme:ntdll:RtlNtStatusToDosErrorNoTeb no mapping for 8000000a
./myphoneinstaller3.0.sh: line 564: Running: command not found
root@dn-laptop:/home/dn#


MPE started and worked, but it is the same problem to restart it.
"Kindprozess »/home/root/.wine/drive_c/MyPhoneExplorer/My Phone Explorer« konnte nicht ausgeführt werden (No such file or directory)"
In the directory "home" there is no directory "root".

This would be the right path:
Dateisystem/root/.wine/drive_c/MyPhoneExplorer/MyPhoneExplorer
(The files are available).

But when I start the file (MyPhoneExplorer.exe) manually, nothing happens.

Er... You didn't run the script with root-previlegs?
Wine-Operations must not be done as root cause every user has its own .wine-directory and also root has its own .wine-dir.

So uninstall via the script and try it again as normal user.

Yes, it was the fault! Now it works without any problems!

Thank you for your support to s0l1dsnak3123 and weinbi!

Hey there Gast. I will hopefully be able to fix your problem soon, as I am unable to use linux right now due to internet problems (my router got fried in a freak thunder and lightning accident, believe it or not ¬_¬ ). As soon as I am able to develop again I will look into the problem. Thanks alot

[weinbi]

I know the problem: Your /dev/rfcomm* has not the correct rights.

I have the same problem too but I have made a small bash-script which asks for root-rights, changes the rights and the it starts mpe.
In the MPE.desktop - file I just execute the script.

I did this because everytime you startup the pc you have to change it again. Hm, maybe it can be done on booting, but I didn't have the time to have a look how this could work. My solution is just quick'n'dirty; but it works!

[weinbi]

Err, I had some problems when I tried your script on another notebook, OS is OpenSuse 11.0 + KDE 4.0.4:

First: you had something wrong with the version-number.
The script was named 3.0, inside it was 2.9 so the script said to download the new version of the script! I downloaded it just before executing!!
So i changed the version insde to 3.0 and then it seemed to be okay.

When the installed was finished, it didn't work properly (couldn't start mpe!), so i uninstalled it and tried it again and then it worked.... Quite strange, isn't it?

But however the bluetoothconnection didn't work - maybe because on Opensuse 11.0 + KDE 4 there is no "gksu" installed - I saw you use it but there is no error because of the unknown command.

However, I wanted to install it using my package-manager (I'm using YaST2 with Zypper-Backend) and it can't be found neither in any repository I have nor on the dvd.

Seems that I have to scan, bind and change the rights manually...

Hey there weinbi, I am officially back on linux, so the development can start again

I am using Sabayon 3.4 stable instead of Ubuntu Hardy, because it was getting way too slow on my crappy computer

I have fixed my stupid mistake with the version number, and I am working on the following:

• Detection whether to use kdesu or gksu
  Fix the error with the installer that makes it not work the first time (might be tricky :/ )
  Add german language support

Hold tight while I work on these things

Hey everybody

Good news! MyPhoneInstaller 3.2 is out!

This version ensures that all users will be able to install properly, because the script now detects various Desktop Environments (like KDE or Gnome), and if it can't detect (or there isn't one) it will use the standard sudo, or ask the user to run as a superuser or root.

Install or update using the usual methods:
Install Here

Update by running your old script.

Up next:

• Add german language support (localization support)
  Fix bug that breaks MPI if it detects more than one (or the wrong) phone using bluetooth

[Gast]

Hello,

I get this error:

"set connection string failed" when I try to connect with bluetooth

What should I do?
Thank you

[s0l1dsnak3123]

Hi there, can you try following this tutorial, then running My Phone Explorer from /home/YOUR USERNAME/.wine/drive_c/MyPhoneExplorer/My Phone Explorer

thanks

[Gast]

what tutorial do you mean?
but I already installed it and it runs
I put it on com2 and press stable connection but when I refresh it gives that error

Sorry if you gave the solution but I don't get it ^^

I'm a new user, I'm using ubuntu 8.04 and I really like, the only time I still use vista is for myphoneexplorer so it would be nice to get it working

[chrigu57]

I could install MyPhoneExplorer into my Linux Ubuntu 8.04! MyPhoneExplorer starts but does not connect to the phone. The driver for the phones are installed. But my Desktop PC has no Bluetooth installed, I would like to connect the phone with USB.

Any idea how to do?

Thanks
