Dear All,

Thank you very much for your response. That problem is resolved by following your advised step. Moreover, now i was moving towards the HelloWorld example i received the following error.

mrg@mrg-Lenovo-ideapad-110-15ISK:~/zephyrproject/zephyr/samples/hello_world/build$ cmake -GNinja -DBOARD=qemu_x86 ..

Hi there,

 

This has been a bug that has popped up several times in the past with Ubuntu:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bash/+bug/1588562

 

As mentioned by others, please add the following line you your ~/.bashrc:

 

export PATH=$PATH:~/.local/bin

Thank you all for the quick response. Here is the copy paste code.

Command 'west' not found, did you mean:

Can you paste on this thread what the output of “pip3 show –f west” and “echo $PATH” return?

Dear,

I am using Ubuntu 18.04.

Moreover, the path of West file is after running the command

"pip3 show -f west"

is

home/rizwan/.local/python 3.6/packages

Subsequently, i have installed all the stuff related to Zephyr including Cmake and Zephyr sdk in a path

/home/rizwan/zaphyr

Kindly advise.

 

Rizwan

What version of Ubuntu are you using?

If you ran "pip3 install --user west" and west cannot be run afterwards, it sounds like the directory that the west binary was installed into is not on your $PATH. Older versions of Ubuntu sometimes have this issue; I forget which ones.

Usually this directory is ~/.local/bin. Please ensure this directory is on your PATH environment variable and try again.

If that doesn't work, you can confirm where west was installed by running "pip3 show -f west"; check both the Location: value and the [...]/bin/west relative path in the Files: list that follows.

Hi,

Happy to try to help, but could you please provide details? The below email is a bit vague: "commands given on the website cannot recognize the West file" doesn't provide much context on what went wrong.

- what is your host operating system?

- what commands did you type?

- what was the output?

- what output did you expect?

Feel free to just copy and paste rather than taking screenshots of the terminal window.

Thanks,

Marti
