nv66-2007-06-24 - oss-v4.1test0-070831-src-cddl build issue

[patrick]

Hi,

I'm trying to compile this version on my OpenSolaris nv66.
i've created an empty directory build1.

# pwd
/oss4.1cddl/build1

sh /oss4.1cddl/configure
after about half a minute it exits on

--SNIP

Cannot create the build tree
cp: cannot access i386/kernel/framework/include/timestamp.h

Did I mis something in the build instructions? I've tried compiling a GPL and the 4.0 versions all exit with same error. The MAXSYMLINKS is kind of weird.

Anyone encounterd this before?

regards,

Patrick

From RELNOTES.txt:

NOTE! The build directory must be outside the source directory. Otherwise the configure script will go to endless loop and fail.

You're using /oss4.1cddl/build1 which is a subdirectory of /oss4.1cddl . You need to create an independent directory (e.g. /ossbuild) and then run /oss4.1cddl/configure from there.

[patrick]

thanks cesium, kinda missed that note.

Hi,

I make dir in /opt & source dir in, /Desktop/driver , same issue..

Thanks

Hi

Building still fails, even outside the oss tree, presumably because of the sub-directories, i386 and amd64 or sparc.

Using Solaris10 specific script
cd sparc;sh ../oss-v4.0-build1013-src-cddl/setup/setupdir.sh -Asparc -U
../oss-v4.0-build1013-src-cddl/setup/setupdir.sh: ../oss-v4.0-build1013-src-cddl/setup/setupdir.sh: cannot open

cd i386;sh ../oss-v4.0-build1013-src-cddl/setup/setupdir.sh -Ai386
../oss-v4.0-build1013-src-cddl/setup/setupdir.sh: ../oss-v4.0-build1013-src-cddl/setup/setupdir.sh: cannot open
cd amd64;sh ../oss-v4.0-build1013-src-cddl/setup/setupdir.sh -Aamd64 -K
../oss-v4.0-build1013-src-cddl/setup/setupdir.sh: ../oss-v4.0-build1013-src-cddl/setup/setupdir.sh: cannot open
cp: cannot access i386/kernel/framework/include/timestamp.h

[partha06]

Use pkg file. it will work..

[arb]

I haven't tried the pkg file because I don't want it to timeout after a few months. Besides, having open source is not very useful if it won't build

[dev]

You need to ensure that the C Compiler CC is in the path.

Add /opt/SUNWspro/bin to your path and then run the configure script.

The problem is not the C compiler, the configure script doesn't get that far!!

arb% which cc
/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc
arb% which CC
/opt/SUNWspro/bin/CC

do you have /usr/ccs/bin in your path?

I just downloaded build 1013 CDDL source code
extracted the software in /usr/src
created /usr/src/oss-build
cd /usr/src/oss-build

sh /usr/src/oss-v4.0-build1013-src-cddl/configure
Using Solaris10 specific script
cd i386;sh /usr/src/oss-v4.0-build1013-src-cddl/setup/setupdir.sh -Ai386
srcdir=/usr/src/oss-v4.0-build1013-src-cddl
Source directory is /usr/src/oss-v4.0-build1013-src-cddl
Build directory is /usr/share/src/oss-build/i386
..
..
..

Directory preparation complete.
Build ID will be 1013


make package


Perhaps you should try making as root.

arb% ../oss-v4.0-build1013-src-cddl/configure

Use absolute path not relative path to the configure script
ie.
/usr/src/oss-v4.0-build1013-src-cddl/configure
