I am trying to install activator in my linux system.
so first I install java
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer
downloaded succefully
then I downloaded activator
sudo wget downloads.typesafe.com/typesafe-activator/1.3.4/ypesafe-activator-1.3.4.zip
then added path
export PATH=$PATH:/home/govind/activator-1.3.4/
then reloaded bash by
source ~/.bashrc
then I try to start activator
govind@LINUXSERVER:~$ sudo activator
sudo: activator: command not found
I tried to print path
govind@LINUXSERVER:~$ $PATH
-bash: /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/home/govind/activator-1.3.4/: No such file or directory
but
govind@LINUXSERVER:~$ ls /home/govind/activator-1.3.4/
activator activator-launch-1.3.4.jar README.html templates
activator.bat LICENSE.html repository
but not successfull!! what am I missing??
Create a symbolic link to activator:
sudo ln -s /home/govind/activator-1.3.4/activator /usr/bin/activator
You do not need to edit bashrc profile.
