How to get rid of the bootstrap : bad interpreter error

(1/3) > >>

ro.nau:
Hi, I couldn't register in the wiki, so I can't give the tip there... (There is not register form)

If you call:
"ro.nau@localhost ~/codeblocks-1.0rc2 $ ./bootstrap"

And get something like this:
: bad interpreter: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
[in English: File or directory not found]

You should simply open the script with an editor like emacs, copy the whole text and paste in in a new one. :D
You'll replace the Windows lineendings by unix ones this way. (I guess so, but it works..)

So, please add a register form in the wiki, I'd really like to write everything useful down.

Michael:
Hello,

Thanks for the tip :), but AFAIK the C::B wiki contains already this info, or? Look at here.

You might would like to give a try to a SVN build of C::B :D.

Best wishes,
Michael

The reason why there is no register form (and why there will not be one) is that we grew tired of 35 new spam bots registering every day and vandalising the WiKi. It is for the same reason that anonymous editing was disabled, and it is for the same reason that you cannot access half of the forum without registering and cannot post in the other half.

You will have to ask Yiannis for an account if you need one.

If you ever happen to meet a spam bot programmer IRL, kick him where it really hurts. Twice if you can. Until then, sorry for the inconvenience.

Oh, yes! I didn't see the information about "dos2unix", but I think a little comment that copying the content from one file to another wouldn't hurt.

@Thomas:
I didn't know about the spam bots, that's really shocking! Why does anyone try to damage open source projects? I remember a hacker gained control of the irrlicht forum some months ago, I cannot understand why. I don't know, are hackers nowadays without ideology? Are they just playing around with some tools to do anything? I think every interested hacker (I don't mean the media's intention) has much more fun in being productive insted of destructive.
How do you think about the situation, why do you think do people damage OS projects?

You might would like to have a look at this wiki article. Not all the hackers are bad. Some are just interested in gaining access to specific computer. Nothing more, nothing less. The crackers instead are bad.

Best wishes,
