Help my sheetcam updated.... New 6.1.49 and won't post
Hello I'm running Linux and my sheetcam updated to 6.1.49 I think. And now it won't post process. Every time I hit post process it just closes application and I have to reopen sheetcam. And it just keeps doing it. Very frustrating.
Any help whould be super.
Thanks guys/gals

I have pulled the update from the website. If you go to the downloads page http://www.sheetcam.com/downloads you can download the previous version. Before you do so could you try running a job report (File->job report) on a job you have set up. Please let me know if it crashes.

So far nothing has helped. I had a part up on sheet and and before I tried to post i ran the job report? Not sure what that dose in the system.... but it just opens a page telling me the facts of the part,and made no difference in posting error. Still just bringing me instantly to my desktop when I try to save the code....

OK, let's have another go at getting you back to the previous version. Right-click on this link and select 'Save as' http://www.sheetcam.com/Downloads/akp3f ... V6.1.44-32. Make a note of where you saved the file. Open your file manager and navigate to the folder where you saved that file. Right-click on it an select 'properties'. Note this must be the file you just downloaded, not the icon that you normally click to start SheetCam. Go to the permissions tab and make sure 'execute' is turned on. You should now be able to just double click on it to start the installation.
Note that these instructions should work with most versions of Linux. If you are still having trouble installing it let me know what Linux desktop you are using.

Les. I never find the execute button. It's just not there. When you go to property's and then permission it just asks you if you want a bunch of stuff (read&write) I'm not sure what that is. There is a box at bottom that said make sure it's clicked to run program... is that what you mean?
Also should I be changing all the other settings back that we have changed thro this praises?
Thanks
