      Hello,
So, I downloaded  vistrails-src-2.2.4-1519abc0ae2b.tar.gz  :
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/vistrails/vistrails/v2.2.4/vistrails-src-2.2.4-1519abc0ae2b.tar.gz
[resperanza@obiwan ~]$ cd
/home/sand/resperanza/Downloads/vistrails-src-2.2.4-1519abc0ae2b
[resperanza@obiwan vistrails-src-2.2.4-1519abc0ae2b]$ tar xvf
vistrails-src-2.2.4-1519abc0ae2b.tar.gz
after extracting:
[resperanza@obiwan vistrails-src-2.2.4-1519abc0ae2b]$ python
vistrails/run.py

these messages appeared. I am new to Fedora so I have no idea what went
wrong. Thank you for your help.

I think they changed the name of the running script some version ago.
Weird that they didn’t fix the documentation.
The run.py script should work.
Best,

Hello,
As far as I know, that command is for Ubuntu. The instructions in the
Vistrails website says:
cd /path/to/vistrails_src/vistrails
 python vistrails.py
Here's the link: http://www.vistrails.org/index.php/Building_From_Source

Where did you find such installation instructions?
On the ALPS guidelines
http://alps.comp-phys.org/mediawiki/index.php/Building_ALPS_from_source,
I see this command:
python vistrails/run.py
Best regards,
Michele

Hello,
I just started with ALPS and the Fedora OS. I am using a machine with
Fedora 21 OS and I think I managed to build ALPS from
alps-2.2.b4-src-with-boost.tar.gz
http://alps.comp-phys.org/static/software/releases/alps-2.2.b4-src-with-boost.tar.gz. Following
the installation instructions in the website, I am now in the "Building
Vistrails and ALPS visrails package from source on Linux" section. I
suppose that visrails is independent of ALPS. I installed the required
packages for vistrails. I untar-ed
vistrails-src-2.2.4-1519abc0ae2b.tar.gz
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/vistrails/vistrails/v2.2.4/vistrails-src-2.2.4-1519abc0ae2b.tar.gz and
did the last step shown in the vistrails webste:
[resperanza@obiwan ~]$ cd
/home/sand/resperanza/Downloads/vistrails-src-2.2.4-1519abc0ae2b/vistrails
[resperanza@obiwan vistrails]$ python vistrails.py
python: can't open file 'vistrails.py': [Errno 2] No such file or
directory
and the error shows. I also cannot find the file vistrails.py in he
extracted files. I appreciate your help. Also, is Vistrails a required
software to run ALPS? Thank you.

Robertson Esperanza
