Failed to generate folder

Ubuntu 12.04

After installing SH and open the working file various times, it failed to generate
in .eteks the folder “sweethome3d”.
How should I generated this folder?
Thank you.

Re: Failed to generate folder

Very strange error. It would have succeeded to create ".eteks" folder in your home but not a folder inside that folder???
Try to create it yourself running the following command in a Terminal window:

mkdir ~/.eteks/sweethome3d

Re: Failed to generate folder

Follow your advice and the folder is now in .eteks.
I have to explain how this come about.
After you help me with plugins>AdvancedEditing.sh3p all was right the “Connect Walls” was
working until the other day after starting SH notice “Connect Walls” was shaded, try to find
why was unsuccessful I fill a new thread that was not answered, continue to find the problem change from ver. 4.5 to ver. 4.4 still the same, as I understand SH generates the folder sweethome3d from .eteks decided to delete the folder and reinstall SH this is the cause I fill a new thread.
To continue I would prefer with your guidance please.
Thank you
