Dear all,
I am trying to put together an executable file from
a ruby script containing an external application (gnuplot),
on machines that doesn’t have Ruby nor gnuplot installed,
using the way this is described in
_http://www.erikveen.dds.nl/distributingrubyapplications/index.html_
(Distributing Ruby Applications - Theory and Practice of Building, Packing and Distributing Ruby Applications)
_http://www.erikveen.dds.nl/tar2rubyscript/index.html_
(http://www.erikveen
.dds.nl/tar2rubyscript/index.html)
_http://www.erikveen.dds.nl/rubyscript2exe/index.html_
(http://www.erikveen.dds.nl/rubyscript2exe/index.html) .
I have made a directory
/temp5,
put in it my application init.rb,
which writes some data into a file, saves it, and then
calls gnuplot via the system command to show a plot
using the commands in that file.
This works fine on the machine I am creating
the executable on,
but when I test my application on an external machine,
where there is neither gnuplot nor Ruby installed, it just starts
and ends without doing anything - no file is written,
no gnuplot is started, no error message is given.
What am I doing wrong ? Is there some problem
configuring some paths? The executable file is quite
large (~8MB), and it seems to contain what’s necessary
from gnuplot, as far as I can tell (see below).
Below is what I get from the eee-list and the tar-list commands
on the machine without Ruby and Gnuplot installed.
$ ./temp5_linux --eee-list
Thank you very much for your help.
Best regards,
Axel
