Geany terminal configuration (with solution)
Posted: 30. Jun 2019, 06:39
When using Geany for the first time to create a bash script, I encountered an error when attempting to execute in Geany (i.e. via F5 shortcut) the saved bash script.
"Cannot execute build command "x-terminal-emulator -e "/bin/sh /tmp/geany_run_script_abc123.sh" ": No such file or directory. Check the Terminal setting in Preferences"
Solution: Executing successfully once I changed the Terminal field in Settings > Tools to: /usr/bin/xfce4-terminal -e "/bin/sh %c"
(If I recall correctly, it was originally set to: x-terminal-emulator -e "/bin/sh %c" )
"Cannot execute build command "x-terminal-emulator -e "/bin/sh /tmp/geany_run_script_abc123.sh" ": No such file or directory. Check the Terminal setting in Preferences"
