Last try (deep sigh). I will try putting blank lines between lines of the scripts so they don't all run together. ===================================================== Ooops^2.0. My scripts did not format properly in the last post. Here is another try. Have patience with me, please. =================================================================

Ooops. I think this was posted too soon (I hit enter before I was done. Sorry.). I have been able to run Problem Sets in Red Hat Linux using version 1.8 of WeBWorK. Everthing I tested seems to run OK.

I have also been able to run the following precreate script successfully:

1) cd /usr/local/webwork/courses

2) cd $1/templates

3) for i in $2*.def

4) do

5) pngPrecreateSet.pl $1 $i

6) done

 

However, the script below fails (sample error message below):

1) cd /usr/local/webwork/courses

2) cd $1/templates

3) for i in $2*.def

4) do

5) l2hPrecreateSet.pl $1 $i

6) done

Does anyone recognize these symptoms? I cannot remember seeing this sort of error message when I ran precreate for WeBWorK 1.8 in Red Hat Linux 7.3. All comments will be appreciated.

Thanks, Richard math@richardwoodward.com

Hello, WeBWorKers.

Never mind my problem with l2hPrecreateSet.pl. I have decided to rely exclusively on 'typeset2' in the future. Because of the much better performance of typeset2, I probably won't need to use pngPrecreateSet.pl anyway.

Just out of curiousity, is anyone else running WeBWorK 1.8 on Red Hat Linux 8?
