getting started on mac

[wmaa]

I'm trying out Sencha on my Mac but am running into issues. I'm trying to run this under MAMP. Below are my steps:
----------
1. I installed Sencha touch 2.1.1 in the following folder: applications/mamp/htdocs/touch-2.1.1
2. I installed Sencha SDK to: applications/senchasdktools-2.0.0-beta3
3. I installed Sencah CMD to: users/me/bin/sencha




4. Test the install by opening terminal
MacBook-Air:~ me$ cd /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/touch-2.1.1
MacBook-Air:touch-2.1.1 me$ sencha
[WARN] The current working directory (/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/touch-2.1.1) is not a recognized Sencha SDK or application folder. Running in backwards compatible mode.
Sencha Command v2.0.0 Beta 3

MacBook-Air:touch-2.1.1 me$ sencha generate app GS ../GS
[ERROR] The current working directory (/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/touch-2.1.1) is not a valid SDK directory. Please 'cd' into a SDK directory before executing this command.


MacBook-Air:touch-2.1.1 me$

How do I get this to work?

Take a look at this blog post:

The problem is with your installation of SDK Tools and Cmd. SDK Tools are not for use with Touch 2.1.1. To start fresh:

1. Uninstall SDK Tools
2. Uninstall Cmd
3. Reinstall Cmd
4. Follow that blog post

I hope this helps you,

I did:
1. Uninstall SDK Tools
2. Uninstall Cmd
3. Reinstall Cmd
4. Follow that blog post




step 3 in blog post - same version of java.


I launched the terminal and type sencha but got:
-bash: sencha: command not found


so I did as suggested here:
http://keito.me/tutorials/macosx_path


'export PATH=users/me/bin/sencha:$PATH' >> ~/.me


then used open to view the path and was shown:
export PATH=users/me/bin/sencha:$PATH


I'm guessing that installed it???




Exited out of Terminal and close the app then reopened and typed:


MacBook-Air:~ me$ cd /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/touch-2.1.1
MacBook-Air:touch-2.1.1 me$ sencha


But got:


-bash: sencha: command not found

i've restarted the mac and tried again but no luck; any suggestions?

Hi

please provide an output of the following command:

export | grep SENCHA_CMD

export | grep PATH

Cheers

Domi - is that from within the terminal app? I'm not an avid mac user. thank you

You'd run those commands in a terminal session. When you install Sencha Cmd, it will set an environment variable to where it's installed on your system (that's what that first command is attempting to determine). The second command will show your PATH environment variable.

For example, on my machine, the first command yields:

declare -x SENCHA_CMD_3_0_0="/Applications/Sencha/Cmd/3.0.2.288"

The directory '/Applications/Sencha/Cmd/3.0.2.288' needs to be present in my PATH for the sencha command to be executed.

One other thing you can do is just dump out your profile scripts using the 'cat' command followed by the path to the file you want to inspect.

I'm not sure what your ~/.me scripts are you referenced earlier. I have my profile script in ~/.bash_profile.

Sencha Cmd put references to itself in my ~/.bash_profile and ~/.bashrc scripts.
