PIIP - PetaLinux 2018.3 Installation missing files

ralphjy

Hi,

 

This is a question for my fellow trainees.  I just discovered that I'm missing some files from my PetaLinux install and I just wanted to ask whether others are having this problem or if I have made an error installing or am using a corrupt install.

 

I normally run the SDK from the shortcut icon on my VM desktop and that has been working fine.  In PetaLinux Lab 4 the SDK is started from the command line - xsdk and that failed because it couldn't find the Java runtime required by the SDK (it was a warning but it failed to start).  When PetaLinux was installed the instructions were to modify the .bashrc file so that the PATH was changed to point to the PetaLinux install files.  The JRE files are missing from my PetaLinux file tree (/tools/petalinux-v2018.3-final) but are there for the Xilinx file tree (/tools/Xilinx).

 

I copied files to eliminate the jre problem but encountered more missing files.

 

Anyone else have this problem?  If not I'll have to hunt for why I am missing files.

 

Thanks,

 

Ralph

    The problem is not because the installation misses files, but because the lab instruction forgot to mention the step of setting up environment before starting up SDK.

     

    Here's a sequence of commands you need:

     

    export SWT_GTK3=0

    . /tools/Xilinx/SDK/2018.3/settings64.sh

    xsdk &
