How to use terminal from Krusader?

Question

When I try to run the "Start Terminal Here" command I get Error executing

konsole --workdir %d!

On the net I found that the reason is that I have konsole is not installed, but I don't have root access and I can't install here anything. I tried putting

sh
bash
gnome-terminal

but the console is not being shown and nothing happens.

What can I do?

I want to start terminal from current location opened in Krusader.

To use Konsole (KDE terminal):

sudo apt-get install konsole

To use Gnome terminal - alter Krusader settings:
Under General

gnome-terminal --working-directory %d

Under User Actions

gnome-terminal --working-directory %d --name %t -e

To emulate Konsole --noclose parameter in Gnome terminal - open a new gnome-terminal, navigate to Edit -> Profile settings. Click on the "Title and Command" tab. Change "exit the terminal" to "hold the terminal open".

Go to System Settings panel, there, in "Default Application" you can set you preferred console app.

If you would like open in a new tab, then

xfce4-terminal --tab --working-directory %d

General

gnome-terminal --working-directory %d

User Actions

gnome-terminal --working-directory %d --name %t -e

Mate: since mater-terminal is a fork of gnome-terminal so we need to pass the same arguments

General

mate-terminal --working-directory %d

User Actions

mate-terminal --working-directory %d --name %t -e

IMHO installing just konsole is not correct (but a workaround) if we already have a built-in terminal

Looks like you forgot to install the konsole package. Try this:

sudo apt-get install konsole

Terminal (Konsole) starts in Applications | System . Try to run the terminal outside krusader, this will tell you if it's a larger problem than krusader.

In krusader; [settings | configure krusader ]

Under General;

konsole --workdir %d

and under User Actions

konsole --noclose --workdir %d --title %t -e

Thank you so much, I've looked into your forum's discussion, I had the same problem, I've installed konsole package by doing sudo apt-get install konsole and konsole terminal appeared exactly inside the directory where I clicked to bring up konsole.

Control+Alt+F1 will show you a console login. Use your user account and password to login and issue the install command from there.

(With Control+Alt+F7 you will go back to your desktop).

You can install KDE Konsole. Find it in Software Center and install it.

After that, you can go to the folder where the application you need to launch is found and press the F9 key to open the terminal and run the desired program.
