Hi, I can help you with that. The installation isn't very difficult. What problems have you had?
First you must try to install Empire in linux or mac os x. I don´t have experience installing Empire in Windows and I don't know if it is posible. Have you a fortran compiler? try with gfortran. After to download the source package and the others try to running the installation script. http://www.nndc.bnl.gov/empire/
Hi
I have download the following files: EMPIRE source, Installation script, Exfor library and ActiveTcl package. I placed them in directory and decompress them. in the terminal I type: sh install.sh (all this on ubuntu)
The installation process is started
the problem is I am note able to Run Empire and create GUI interface?
Hello!
I think maybe you need some "libraries" (maybe) called itcl, itk and iwidgets. My system is Scientific Linux 6, so I can use the command "yum install". I don't know what equals "yum" in Ubantu. When you run empire, if not successfully, you will be told that, in terminal, your PC lacks something and you have to install them.
After installing them, maybe you can run empire.
The GUI interface is in the path: /home/"your username"/empire/scripts/, and the file is Xrun.tcl.
Good luck!

ok, in ubuntu you can to install the libraries with the apt command:
$sudo apt-get install itk itcl iwidgets
or you can use synaptic.
hi,
Please let me know which OS you are using i.e fedora , ubuntu, etc and also which package of EMPIRE? Is it recent one EMPIRE-3.2. If you will tell, I can send you the commands which you can type on terminal directly and execute it easily.
Hi
before installation first use these commands on the terminal ( internet should be connected)
sudo apt-get install gfortran
sudo apt-get install update
Copy the EMPIRE folder in the home directory
First we have to untar this EMPIRE.tgz file by the command
tar zxvf EMPIRE.tgz
then by cd command you can see all the files . one of them is green colour on terminal, that you have to install either by
sh install.sh
then it will ask for many time enter and y etc
also the OS is 64 bit or 32 bit ( mention the proper one otherwise it will not work) , otherwise Active Tcl window will not appear in the time of installation. before the Active Tcl it will show a command to copy that you please copy and not in your note book carefully. when it will ask for Active tcl package install you press enter , than u will come on Active Tcl window. Wher you have to follow some steps carefully. U add that path in that window and click on next - next - next like that. ( In case if Active Tcl window will not come U can use this command
sudo apt-get install libxt-dev:i386 to install some more packages.)
then on terminal it will automatically at end come to EMPIRE installation successful like that.
finally type exit in that terminal.
open new terminal
at the starting of the new terminal you will get some EMPIRE inforamtion already.
type
cd empire
cd scripts
Xrun.tcl &
GUI window will come on your desktop.
please try with these steps. I think It will sure work.
also please check the EMPIRE package which you are going to install is complete or not.
thanks
AS soon as I will get the author copy of my NSE paper entitled as "Estimate of (n,p) Cross Section for Radionuclide 55Fe Using EMPIRE and TALYS" I will upload.
