Ok, the last error is that you misspelled open-babel, but that doesn’t matter. The problem in the second run is that you don’t have permissions to write in the folder /usr/local/include/inchi. My suggestion there would be to remove that directory, using sudo (sudo rm -r /usr/local/include/inchi) and try again. > 29 nov. 2016 kl. 11:03 skrev Mohammad Goodarzi <mohammad.goda...@gmail.com>: > > Hello, > > Yes, I have tried that.
