I am quite a beginner in Linux and trying to install gurobi for linux. The installation guide says to move the downloaded file with the following command:

sudo mv ~/Downloads/gurobi9.5.2_linux64.tar.gz /opt/

When I run this, I get the response:

mv: cannot stat '/home/laukna/Downloads/gurobi9.5.2_linux64.tar.gz': No such file or directory

Is there any way to fix this?

The tilde "~" symbol is "a Linux 'shortcut' to denote a user's home directory. Thus tilde slash (~/) is the beginning of a path to a file or directory below the user's home directory." (quoted from twiki.org)

So if your file isn't located in your home directory (which is what your message "No such file..." implies) then you need to write the absolute path to where that file is. If you don't know, you can find it with

find / -name "gurobi9.5.2_linux64.tar.gz"

The issue is that Linux is not recognizing the gurobi file, What is the file name? seems that is not gurobi9.5.2_linux64.tar.gz

You need check the file name in Downloads folder, replace in the command and run again.

sudo mv ~/Downloads/<FILE NAME>.tar.gz /opt/
