| Hi, | I am using freeBSD 4.4. | I unpacked the courier-imap-1.4.5.tar.gz in the home directory | of a user I created called courier (once I tried putting | this user in the wheel group and another time without | any group). I made sure that this user had complete | ownership of all the files (chown and chgrp to courier). | Then when I run ./configure I still get the same errors. | they are: | ----- | ./configure: cannot create /dev/null: permission denied | | (this one happens many times) | | ---- | then I get a few | | grep: conftest.out: No such file or directory | ---- | | and finally I get | | checking whether setpgrp takes no argument... \c | configure: error: cannot check setpgrp if cross compiling | configure: error: ./configure failed for liblock | ---- | | | I�ve looked all over the web for references to these errors | but have not found anything specific to courier-imap in | freebsd 4.4. I thought it might have something to do with | perl so I installed the latest stable release of perl, but I | still get the same errors. I also found reference to | "broken symlinks to a lib/header directory" and that I | should "Check my lib dir's and or reinstall kernel lib/header files" | but honestly I do not know what this means nor where to look | further. | thanks for the help, | -guillermo
PS.-I have also tried ports, and for some reason (probably something i broke), ports dont install at all on my machine, it always says it cant find the package. I would rather go through the whole compilation instead of installing the ports anyway. thanks _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp. _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas - http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm?source=osdntextlink _______________________________________________ courier-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-users
