TL;DR
Fluka installation problem
What path should I follow to install fluka2021.2-linux-gfor64bit-11.2-AA.tar.gz? I'm a Windows 10 user. I installed WSL I'm using Ubuntu 20.04 on wsl.I installed flair and it works. But the fluka does not work and I get an error related to the installation.
:~$ $FLUPRO/flutil/rfluka -h
$TARGET_MACHINE = Linux
$FLUPRO = /home/emil/fluka
Are you sure you downloaded the FLUKA data files?
Apparently the directory /home/emil/fluka/pwxs does not exist

So, one is using a Win10 machine with a Linux virtual environment (Windows Subsystem for Linux) under which one installed Fluka?

I have not done that in the past, but perhaps there is some useful information here

do i need to install this docker on my virtual machine?

I'm not sure what one means by 'install this docker'. The page goes through steps.

Since one installed FLAIR and it works, you should have similar steps to install FLUKA, but perhaps there are some steps unique to FLUKA.

I will probably do much the same in future.
