Re: Ubuntu can't find lilypond executable

[Bertalan Fodor (LilyPondTool)]

I don't really want to update the kernel if it is not a must. (There are many services running on the server.)

The output of the installer script is:

Making /usr/local/lilypond/
Creating script /usr/local/bin/lilypond
Creating script /usr/local/bin/lilypond-wrapper.python
Creating script /usr/local/bin/lilypond-wrapper.guile
Creating script /usr/local/bin/uninstall-lilypond
Untarring lilypond-2.12.1-1.linux-x86.sh
To uninstall lilypond, run

    /usr/local//bin/uninstall-lilypond

If you mean 2.12, right. Otherwise I hope you uninstalled 2.11 as well.

Are you using a 32-bit Ubuntu installation on a 64-bit machine?

      

Afaik the machine is 32-bit as well, its an Intel P4.

Linux version 2.6.17-12-generic (address@hidden) (gcc version 4.1.2 20060928
(prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.1.1-13ubuntu5)) #2 SMP Sun Sep 23 19:39:38 UTC 2007
(Ubuntu 2.6.17-12.41-generic)
    

latest Ubuntu comes with version 2.6.27-9 of the Linux kernel.

Anyway, the distributed installer has aaaaalways worked for me, so I'd
recommend you to uninstall it again, purge any old version and try to
install it from scratch.

success, because lilypond comes with a Python inside, if I'm not
wrong.

Please post the output of the installing command.
