I've installed Mojolicious on OS X Mavericks using the instructions found on the Mojolicious web page (http://mojolicio.us/).

The directions state " To run this example with the built-in development web server just put the code into a file and start it with "morbo". " When I do so, the command line gives me the error " morbo: command not found ".

I'll delete this if it's some rookie mistake but the only solution I've found is another stackoverflow page that didn't help me.

As part of the installation process of any Perl module that contains scripts, they are installed to a specific location. If that location is not in your executable path, then they cannot be run. I would do a file search for the morbo script and check your $PATH variable. The script must be in the directories listed in that variable to run it by name. Check by running echo $PATH in a terminal (I know that works on Linux, I think it should work for Mac).

You can also run morbo by executing the full path to the executable:

/home/joel/perl5/perlbrew/perls/perl-5.18.1/bin/morbo myapp.pl

(p.s. as you can see, I use perlbrew, I highly recommend it).

My morbo is here: /usr/local/Cellar/perl/5.24.0_1/bin/morbo

if I run it from there it works as expected. Just run

find / -name morbo and you will find it.

Hope it helps.

I had the same problem, but with the standard Perl install, not perlbrew. I was expecting the mojo command to be available, but I only had the morbo command.

which morbo -> /opt/local/bin/morbo
sudo ln -s /opt/local/bin/morbo /opt/local/bin/mojo
