I built my application but when I try to run it on ubuntu the screen says there is no application installed for executables.
am i missing something else i need for linux deployment?

Hi,

Maybe you need to chmod it:
There's also a properties window for files in Ubuntu, which contains some useful settings for executables (such as setting to run instead of open as file).

Best,

Mark

Yes, you need to set its executable bit. That's done in the Properties dialog. This is a very common operation in Linux, a lot of apps you download need to be set -- including, often, LiveCode itself.

Thanks that helped me very much! It works now!
