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

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.

Thank you for the reply. I'm worried that VisTrails is required even if ALPS is built from source.

I think this is better discussed on the VisTrails mailing list.

For running ALPS (specially if you are installing from sources) VisTrails is optional and, honestly, not used that much.

If you just skip this step, you should be able to run the Python scripts in the tutorials (or your own) with the `alpspython` wrapper.
