That all looks right to me. You don't need to set STARLINK_DIR as the login script is meant to set it for you (and if you set it it will simply assume you are relocating).

None of this explains why star2html is not in $STARCONF_DEFAULT_PREFIX/bin

if you go into applications/star2html and type "make install" what happens?

Oh right! I am now not sure how I have *ever* built starlink if this is the case because the first thing I do before trying to is

source the following little script, which as you will see explicitly unsets STARLINK_DIR. I thought it says to do this somewhere in the 

build instructions, but perhaps STARLINK_DIR gets set at some point and then I mistakenly re-sourced the little script or something.

Apologies for my probable incompetence. Where would be the best point for me to re-start? Right back to bootstrap?

setenv F77 gfortran

setenv FC gfortran

setenv STARCONF_DEFAULT_STARLINK $TRM_SOFTWARE/gstar

setenv STARCONF_DEFAULT_PREFIX $TRM_SOFTWARE/gstar

unsetenv INSTALL

unsetenv STARLINK

unsetenv STARLINK_DIR

setenv PATH $STARCONF_DEFAULT_PREFIX/bin:$STARCONF_DEFAULT_PREFIX/buildsupport/bin:$PATH

star2html is in your path in $STARLINK_DIR/bin

Your configure can't find it.

What I don't understand is how you got all the way to sc/002 before it noticed. star2html is built very early in make world. Did you switch terminals to one that doesn't have $STARLINK_DIR/bin in your path?

Where does it find "star2html"? I ran a 'find' from the top level and the only star2html it came back with was the directory

./applications/star2html/

is that right?

sc2 is the first standalone document to build.

What happens if you run ./configure in the docs/sc/002 directory?

Sorry, me again. Trying to build starlink on newish laptop and encountered one I vaguely feel I have before:

there were various things (yacc, bison, flex) that I had to install as I hit errors; I don't know if this could somehow have led to the above problem which would not have occurred otherwise. Anyway, grateful for ways around it. It was quite early in the 'make' stage. I am at VLT at the moment and need to get starlink etc installed
