what's up friends whenever I try to run the application associated with configure window
00:09
maker I got this error could not execute command exec wp refs I need to run another
00:25
terminal emulator since I still cannot zoom in this terminal emulator the external or external maybe
00:41
I should use u launcher and it is console the thing that you need to do here if we try to run for
01:03
example WP refs like this it says command not found it's because it's not in the path it can be slash
01:11
usr slash local slash GNU uppercase still in the same word step slash applications with a uppercase
01:19
slash WP refs WP are uppercase dot app slash WP refs let me type it in my case it's not the one
01:29
local local GNU step applications slash WP refs dot app slash WP refs if I try to run it no such file
01:57
or directory when I tried another suggested path which is slash which is what I'm gonna type here
02:07
anyway GNU step tab to do the auto completion and simplify things and then applications this is the
02:18
path where I found my application WP refs and there you see it works if you cannot find it in this path nor
02:29
the first one check with lib64 like this it is also there you have I have either paths the last two ones in
02:46
order in order to get this thing working there is a configuration file where we can associate it when we
02:59
can associate WP refs with the path that we found so it should be GNU step slash defaults slash WM
03:09
root menu and we should look for the WP refs WP refs and make it the correct path
03:39
should be configure window maker should be configure window maker
03:44
now maybe we should look for WP refs
04:02
yeah configuring window maker
04:08
yeah configuring window maker exec I need to take the full path again choose this one
04:16
go back to this configuration file look for WP refs with keeping in mind the case sensitivity here
04:31
the full path we type it append it here save and exit and let's try again like this and you can see
04:46
that it works that was how you resolve the issue thank you for reaching this second of the video please
