In trying to determine where the error is, I was not able to ascertain where things went wrong so I started from scratch to get the steps correct. Although I can say for sure that the last error of:
Alt+h sh: line 1: /home/cinelerra/cinelerra-5.1/bin/doc/ContextManual.pl: No such file or directory
is for sure telling me that the default file, which is part of the original source and you should still see in /home/cinelerra/cinelerra-5.1/doc, is missing in /home/cinelerra/cinelerra-5.1/bin/doc; that is ContextManual.pl. Something must have gotten deleted or not copied to AppDir/usr in its entirety.
If it is not too much trouble, I would do a fresh build and only then execute directly "in the bin/doc directory": tar xvf HTML_Manual-20241031.tgz then before running your appimage build, check by executing "bin/cin" and doing Alt h. If that works then the copy via bld_appimage.sh should result in Help being automatically included.
Standing by here for results.
Actually there are three doc locations in my /Cin: ./doc ./bin/doc ./AppDir/usr/bin/doc and as the first doc folder is empty, I have a feeling I myself by accident cleaned up wrong doc folder. But what do we preserve backup for 😉 Actually I found the missing file in my backup /Cin # ls /Cin/bin_use_system_ffmpeg-702/doc/ContextManual.pl /Cin/bin_use_system_ffmpeg-702/doc/ContextManual.pl Then I cleaned up the first two doc folders above and copied all doc files from the backup and added the Cinelerra-GG_Manual. So in worst case there might be some extra doc files now :) Tested that Help files worked in CinGG, re-built the AppImage and tested successful. ~/Applications> du -sh Cin* 171M CinGG-20241031-x86_64.AppImage 181M CinGG-20241120-x86_64.AppImage Phyllis, look up for a new file-link for the complete AppImage in a few minutes 😉

My old teknikk account is expired. I use Thunderbird as email client IMAP connected to my gmail account. For one or another reason the connection has been horrible slow since yesterday. But now I have sent you a filelink I hope you receive.

Yes, I copied all manual files to bin/doc, and repeat the steps as follows, to get verified if something is wrong:
cp HTML_Manual-20241031/CinelerraGG_Manual/** /home/cinelerra/cinelerra-5.1/bin/doc
so now the total in AppDir/usr/bin/doc is 1007 elements, 80.3 MB
Ran bld_appimage.sh again and now have CinGG-20241120-x86_64.AppImage 166.5 MB (which still is smaller than the previous CinGG-20241031-x86_64.AppImage 178.8 MB)
While Manual Help works for the latter, it doesn't load for the new AppImage:
~/Applications> ./CinGG-20241120-x86_64.AppImage
Alt+h
Cannot open /tmp/.mount_CinGG-24Mpo2/usr/bin/doc/CinelerraGG_Manual/Contents.html: No such file or directory at /home/terje/.bcast5/ContextManual.pl line 205.
Is this a known issue and possibly how to solve it?
may be you should move in folder named CinelerraGG_Manual and not its content?
Yeah, I thought of that, but forgot to ask that question. I was in doubt as I think "all html files" was mentioned Try to cleanup and make appimage again.
Still no success to put the whole Manual folder in
cp -r HTML_Manual-20241031/CinelerraGG_Manual /home/cinelerra/cinelerra-5.1/bin/doc
Alt+h
sh: line 1: /tmp/.mount_CinGG-iDrVm0/usr/bin/doc/ContextManual.pl: No such file or directory
so, it was more correct first time, just perl script was unable to find Contents.html
may be it was named contents.html, from lowercase c ?
"Contents.html" looks to be the correct one as verified here from the latest Manual folder:
cd /Cin/AppDir/usr/bin/doc/CinelerraGG_Manual
ls Content* content* Contents.html contents.png
There looks to be a doc build difference somewhere between my AppImage vs the the official AppImage?
well, for just bin folder
I removed anything from bin/doc
then re run 'make install'
then copied html docu folder like this:
cp -r CinelerraGG_Manual bin/doc/
firefox startup a bit slow but it worked .... in termux.
I tried to repeat your steps, but confusingly I still got the previous error:
rm /Cin/bin/doc/** ls /Cin/bin/doc/
/Cin # make install
cp -r CinelerraGG_Manual /Cin/bin/doc/ ls /Cin/bin/doc/ CinelerraGG_Manual
du -sh /Cin/bin/doc/ 76M /Cin/bin/doc/
/Cin bin/cin Cinelerra Infinity - built: Nov 20 2024 22:06:05
BC_DisplayInfo::gl_fb_config failed
Alt+h sh: line 1: /home/cinelerra/cinelerra-5.1/bin/doc/ContextManual.pl: No such file or directory
I thought Manual Help should work before I send the complete AppImage.
