------------------------------------
Summary: Travis CI build failure on master. Thrift/boost
incompatibility
Key: HAWQ-1572
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HAWQ-1572
Project: Apache HAWQ
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Build
Reporter: Shubham Sharma
Assignee: Radar Lei
Hi,
The travis CI build is failing for master and new commits. The CI is erroring
out with
{code}
configure: error: thrift is required
The command “./configure” failed and exited with 1 during .
{code}
I was able to reproduce this issue and looking at the config.log it looks like
it is failing at the line below while running a conftest.cpp -
{code}
/usr/local/include/thrift/stdcxx.h:32:10: fatal error:
'boost/tr1/functional.hpp' file not found
{code}
The root cause of the problem is compatibility of thrift 0.11 with boost 1.65.1
. Travis recently upgraded there xcode to 9.2 and list of default packages now
contains boost 1.65.1 and thrift 0.11.
Thrift uses
[stdcxx.h|https://github.com/apache/thrift/blob/master/lib/cpp/src/thrift/stdcxx.h]
which includes boost/tr1/functional.hpp library. The support for tr1 has been
removed in boost 1.65, see
[here|http://www.boost.org/users/history/version_1_65_1.html] under topic
“Removed Libraries”.
Since tr1 library is no longer present in boost 1.65, this causes thrift to
fail and eventually ./configure fails
Solution
As a solution I recommend that we uninstall boost 1.65 and install boost
1.60(the last compatible build with thrift).
I am not sure if this is a problem with thrift that they are not yet compatible
with boost 1.65 yet or a problem with travis ci that they have included two
incompatible versions. Will love to hear community's thoughts on it.
