»rapid-photo-downloader« could not be executed - child process not found

I just installed RPD without any error message. But when I want to start the app, I always get this error message, that it could not be executed "Failed to execute child process “rapid-photo-downloader” (file not found)

Now I deinstalled it and reinstalled it again, to copy the text of the installer. Now I have a “disk access error” at the end, but it also says, that the app was installed sucessfully. However, the error message still persists when I try to open it.

Sorry for the German text, I hope it is still understandable.

(If a segmentation fault occurs at exit, you can ignore it...)
Speicherzugriffsfehler

It’s not a “disk access error” but a “Speicherzugriffsfehler”, which is German for “Segmentation fault” - the error you can ignore (according to the second last line).

Please show us the actual error when you run the program. Without that bit we can’t help. Thx!

Franz, AFAIK, the literal translation of “Speicherzugriffsfehler” is “Storage access error.”
Just sayin’

:slight_smile:

Thank you for your answers.
The error message is in the title/first sentence. The screenshot is just a lot of German :slight_smile:
I have XFCE on MX Linux, if that’s relevant.

OK, thx.
Most likely your ~/bin isn’t in your PATH. Could you add PATH="${HOME}/bin:${PATH}" to you ~/.bashrc (in case you use bash, otherwise chose the appropriate shell config file for your user).
