Sorry- we were writing at the same time- it was a user issue (see above). But to answer: I specified /usr/local/bin because thats what the manual said and, yes, a quick check verified that mono is installed there. I never had a problem installing mono- did you think I had? Ultimately, yes 'mono ckan.exe' worked, once I corrected my stupidity. But now i can't get CKAN to recognize my KSP folder, even though it is on my Destop and named "KSP_Linux". Huh. And I can't even select it, because CKAN gives me an error to the effect that it's not a valid KSP folder. ...? EDIT-- Aha, I found the issue by searching this thread. I had installed a new separate KSP to use to experiment with, and you have to run KSP at least once before CKAN will recognize it.

Hi, all. I'm new here, obviously- I got to playing around with KSP because my 8-year-old daughter thinks it's awesome. Be gentle. I have Mint 17.1 running on my laptop, but I really don't know as much about computers or Linux as that implies. I found the CKAN manual on github, and followed the instructions for installing on Ubuntu (Mint is a subspecies of Ubuntu) without apparent issue until it came to actually running CKAN, when I get this: me /usr/local/bin $ sudo /usr/local/bin/mono ckan.exe sudo: /usr/local/bin/mono: command not found (I have to sudo or I get a Permission Denied error.) It looked like mono installed just fine, mozroot imported, and libcurl4-openssl-dev installed. I can't place ckan.exe in the mono folder, because it isn't a folder. For now I have just put it on my Desktop. Where should I put it? Is that even the problem? I tried just clicking the icon but then all that happens is that a blank terminal flashes open for a split second. And even though it's on my Desktop I get this: me ~/Desktop $ ckan.exe ckan.exe: command not found Compiling from source code is beyond me, so I just downloaded the CKAN .exe file v 1.14.2, which from the documentation seems like it should work. Sorry to keep editing- I'm still trying new things: me ~/Desktop $ mono ckan.exe Cannot open assembly 'ckan.exe': File does not contain a valid CIL image. So, maybe I need to have a different ckan.exe? EDIT- [sOLVED] Sorry for the bother- it was a user issue, after all. For some reason Firefox was showing the ckan.exe download as complete when it wasn't, so I was moving around and trying to use a partial file. I reloaded it, and it runs. Now I have a different problem, though, but I'll work on it myself for a bit... Thanks!
