Then, most likely, LuaRocks is not the problem. How old is your compiler/windows api? Can you find out what the default value of the `_WIN32_WINNT` preprocessor symbol is (after including `windows.h` or `winsock2.h`)? Judging from the error message, the problem is `SOCKADDR_STORAGE` in `wsocket.h`, which is only defined if `_WIN32_WINNT >= 0x0501` (meaning Windows XP and up, see `ws2def.h`). Using the old luasocket to satisfy Xavante's dependencies as Hisham suggested might work (if you use Lua 5.1 and don't need IPv6). If your OS is recent enough (and only the compiler's default value of `_WIN32_WINNT` is too low) you could define `_WIN32_WINNT` yourself (maybe this should be done in the luasocket source or the rockspec?!). > > Regards > carsten HTH, Philipp ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Shape the Mobile Experience: Free Subscription Software experts and developers: Be at the forefront of tech innovation.
