GrADS won't run

[Azar Zarrin]

Which version are you trying to install?
I had the same problem with the x86-64 and amd64 versions the other week. A GrADS  user  suggested me to try i686 Version and it worked.

Ok Thanks, I downloaded the new open GrADS and installed it.
 
I then changed the Path by typing export PATH=/usr/local/bin/grads-2.0.a7.oga.3/Contents/
 
Then I went to run grads and this pops up on the secreen 3 times and just hangs there, refreshing for ever...

I have downloaded and un-zipped and tar'd the Grads program for linux i686 system (grads-2.0.a7.1-bin-i686-pc-linux-gnu)
 
See if you have better luck with an opengrads build:

It all unpacked fine and i have the grads programs in the location /usr/local/bin/grads-2.0.a7.1/bin/
And the libraries in /usr/local/lib/grads/
 
I am running everything from a command line, i.e. no desktop GUI or anything, so when I got to run GrADS  by typing grads it comes up with the error "Floating Point Exception"
 
I have also tried typing grads -b to prevent a window popping up, as I am just using a command line but this doesn't work either.

My system is i686 -pc -linux -gnu
 
Hope someone can help!
 
Cheers, Craig
