Plowmod is not working?
Closed this issue · 5 comments
Hello,
I've installed plowshare on my VPS (OS: debian-8.0-x86_64). When I install external modules using plowmod --install, it shows -bash: plowmod: command not found.
I'm new to Bash and have no idea why there is no plowmod command. Does anyone know the reason? Any help is really appreciated.
Hi,
Which version of plowshare did you installed ?
Could you list your installation directory (for example when prefix=/usr):
$ ls /usr/share/plowshare/
Since your VPS is running Debian jessie, if you installed plowshare from the software repository as the package plowshare4 then you are stuck with using an old version (1.0.5) pre-dating plowmod. To get the latest versions you should enable jessie backports and then perform an update which will replace the plowshare4 package with plowshare at version 2.1.5 (soon to be 2.1.6 once I get that uploaded in the backports repository). These newer versions will have plowmod included,
I've checked ls /usr/share and found plowshare4. Then I check ls /usr/share/plowshare4 ,it shows core.sh delete.sh download.sh list.sh modules probe.sh upload.sh. Is this an outdated version?
Yes, you have the old version from jessie without plowmod. The new version is in a package called plowshare (without the 4) which is available in jessie backports.
