Bible Analyzer 3.9 Linux beta

[Tim]

Try the .deb in the post above and see if it will work for you.

I installed the software from the .deb file, but it would not open. I uninstalled from the package manager, and installed. Still would not open. I uninstalled, moved the BA folder to the Trash, and installed. Still would not open. I restared the computer -- didn't help. On opening the BA folder, it has a quotes.txt, and a Modules Folder with seven folders. I moved the config.ini file from the Trash to the BA folder. Didn't change anything. I put the .ini file back in the Trash.

I hope I'm not making this difficult for you.

Did you try to open in Terminal as described above? It should give you an error message.

Here it is -- I changed name of user.

I though I fixed that, but don't guess it is.

Go to
usr/share/bibleanalyzer/Tools

and rename the Tools folder to

usr/share/bibleanalyzer/tools

Hi Tim,

Was able to successfully install the .deb over the top of the 3.9 manual upgrade.

I'm using the Module files from when I purchased the package from you (I think last year), and have noticed since using Ver 3.9 that the AVs Bible only shows the Strongs reference in the text within square bracket, for example [3056], there is no H for the Hebrew numbers and no G for the Greek. Hence when selecting the Strong's number it doesn't successfully search the appropriate dictionaries and locate the number. This was okay before with 3.7

Is this because the version of the Modules I will be using needs updating to run within 3.9 correctly? Is there a tool I can use since the conversion tool in BA only seems to relate to .htm extension files.

Thanks
Paul

Go to
usr/share/bibleanalyzer/Tools

Tim, would you believe I have no idea what this means? So, after looking at the computer for awhile, this is what I tried. I went to Places - Computer - File System - usr - share. And clicking on share brought up all kinds of program files. I clicked Bibleanalyzer, and again I got all kinds of files, but one was a folder called Tools. I right clicked. The rename option was greyed out. I don't think I am allowed to rename this folder. (Inside the Tools folder is one called modTools.py. So I hope that was to have a capital "T").

At any rate -- did I guess wrong? How do I go to usr/share/bibleanalyzer/Tools?? If I guessed right, how do I get that folder to cooperate? It doesn't want to change its name.

Here are the new AV w/Strong's and Strong's Dct to test with.

You have to be a sudo (super) user to be able to edit the system or protected files or folders. You are at the right folder.

DO a quick search on the web of how to edit protected files and folders. You can use Terminal to do it (you have to enter your admin password). Just rename the one Tools folder. If you can't get it, I may have a fixed .deb up tomorrow.

Thanks Tim, AVs works well now.

I have some additional feedback. If I have the Dictionary Popup enabled (click on Strongs number and get a popup window) there is a selection field at the top of the window. It has left and right arrows on the outside and internal scroll arrows on the right side of the box. The field however is empty. If I select a word which cannot be found in the popup dictionary then that field doesn't see to do anything - is it meant to contain the full index of the dictionary and enable scrolling through?

Thanks
Paul
