filePro 5.0.15 and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

[Walter Vaughan Jr]

I am going to guess that you have a 32 bit version of ubuntu currently and are trying to install a 32 bit version of filePro on a 64 bit version of Ubuntu.  There are current releases of 32 bit Debian, which is what I would work with since Ubuntu is based upon Debian.

Has anyone tried to install an older version of filePro that works fine for the application you are running and tried to put it on the latest Ubuntu
20.04 LTS system?

I have it running on an earlier version 12.04 Ubuntu for quite a few years, but thought I would upgrade the OS to something newer, but I can't get it to run.

When I try to simply run "p" for the main filePro menu, I get the following error message:

/usr/local/bin/p: line 79: /usr2/appl/fp/runmenu : No such file or directory.
/etc/default/fppath is:
/usr2/appl/

/usr2/appl/

PATH contains all of the required directories and the permissions on all of the files appear to be exactly as they were on the Ubuntu 12.04 server.

BUT when you go to that directory it IS there it just won't run the script or any of the executables.

Any ideas? I do NOT need the features available in 6.0.* or I would upgrade to it.
