I am having trouble constructing the files needed by autoconf and/or automake to construct a sub directory build environment. My main directory has no source, but several subdirectories have.
I have the following configure.in: AC_INIT AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS(db_access/ db_access_new/) AC_PROG_MAKE_SET AC_CONFIG_FILES([Makefile]) AC_OUTPUT(db_access/Makefile db_access_new/Makefile) and a Makefile.am: SUBDIRS=db_access db_access_new However, when running make, after building configure with the autoconf command, and running configure, I get the following error: [quelch@neo source]$ make cd . && \ @AUTOMAKE@ --gnu Makefile /bin/sh: @AUTOMAKE@: command not found make: *** [Makefile.in] Error 127 The Makefile.in has: ACLOCAL = @ACLOCAL@ AUTOCONF = @AUTOCONF@ AUTOMAKE = @AUTOMAKE@ AUTOHEADER = @AUTOHEADER@ which is the cause of the problem. What macro is missing in my files? I have reviewed all online documentation I know about, but they aren't helping me. Other that the documentation at gnu.org, and the autobook available from redhat.com, are there other up-to-date online documentation sources? Autoconf version 2.52 and automake 1.5 Thanks for any help. -- G. E. "Geoff" Quelch Ph.D. Chief Software Engineer, Computational Geosciences Inc. Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Voice: 303 255 1107
