Hi, gambas 3 was installed from with yast, when tried to use it never opens de ide, so run

gambas3

in the terminal and show this:

gbx3: unable to find startup file

.

Already install all gambas3 pattern packages in yast and run

zypper update

command in the terminal as root, and still no works gambas.

Could anyone help me? :slight_smile:

Hi
The gambas IDE is gambas3-ide, gbx3 is the runtime component, so would expect a file to be used…

when run “gambas3” in the terminal show: “gbx3: unable to find startup file”, how can install the file expected to be used?:sarcastic:

Hi
Use the help option :wink:


 gbx3 --help

Execute a Gambas project or evaluate a Gambas expression (-e option).

Usage: gbx3 [options] <project file>] -- <arguments>]
       gbx3 -e <expression>

Options:
  -g               enter debugging mode
  -s <class>       override startup class
  -p <path>        activate profiling and debugging mode
  -k               do not unload shared libraries
  -H --httpd       run through an embedded http server
  -j               disable just-in-time compiler
  -t --trace       dump the position of each executed line of code
  -e               evaluate an expression
  -V --version     display version
  -L --license     display license
  -h --help        display this help

You should start the ide (as in run gambas3-ide, or start via the desktop icon), then you can create a new project etc.

If anyone still experiencing the error “gbx3: unable to find startup file” or any of the missing component mentioned when running “gambas3.gambas” please see my explanation here: Can't execute gambas3 - #4 by jasongodev

Basically you need to install the missing component. In my case it is “gambas3-gb-jit”.
