Re: [Orgmode] mobileorg - "No executable found to compute checksums"

[Buck Brody]

Nick,

Could you give me an example of what you mean when you say "customize the variable to be the path name"?

Thanks four help.

[Apologies to Buck for the double send: I forgot to cc: the list.]

Presumably, you don't have any of the following programs on your machine, so the
variable is set to nil:

(defcustom org-mobile-checksum-binary (or (executable-find "shasum")
                                         (executable-find "sha1sum")
                                         (executable-find "md5sum")
                                         (executable-find "md5"))
 "Executable used for computing checksums of agenda files."
 :group 'org-mobile
 :type 'string)

If you have some checksumming program, customize the variable
to  be the pathname of the program. If not, you'll have to get one.

This was discussed on the list before:
