First check the environment variables that they have been set up correctly.
Make sure nescc is in the path. And the third and final step would be to add
a -v switch to the ncc command. It will print out debugging information
about all of its actions.

 That would be a good logical next step, yes; however, I don't know how to
do that.  The error message, "Couldn't execute nescc."  is rather cryptic,
and looking at the source code for ncc is a foreign language to me.  Any
ideas for starting points?

Thanks,

So you should find out why does ncc complains about being not able to run
nescc when nescc can be run without any problems.

Okay, I ran nescc --version, and got:

[Greg:~] greg% nescc --version
nescc: 1.2.4

So, I'm guessing that nescc works fine on its own.

I would check if nescc can be run by issuing a command like "nescc
-version" . If it works then the next thing would be to find out why ncc
cannot execute nescc.

Yes, it's in the path, inside /usr/local/bin, which (I checked) is in fact
in $PATH.

Is nescc in your path? Without nescc you won't be able to compile tinyos
applications.

I have, as far as I can tell, nesc installed; however, when I run the ncc
command, it says "couldn't execute nescc."  I do have TinyOS installed, and
the tools, as well.  What's next?

You would need to install nesC (probably from source), tinyos-tools and
tinyos. Have a look at

Okay, I managed to get everything installed, as best as I can tell.  (At

 It appears that I didn't install TinyOS, but some other way to compile and
write data to my MICAz?  Do I need to install TinyOS now, or is there a
different set of commands I need to use to write something to the mote?

Thanks,

I know some people have successfully installed TinyOS on Mac OS X by
following instructions from

You may want to give it a try.

Hello, everyone.  I'm a student at the University of Texas at Dallas
trying
to use ZigBee to create a network of wireless wattmeters.  After much
delay,
I've finally received the modules (after three weeks of waiting on
procurement to obtain them), and am ready to go...with a minor hang-up.  I
can't install TinyOS on my Mac, despite following several tutorials on how
to install it.  They seem all to be outdated or geared towards a different

platform (i.e., Telos), and whatever the case is, I can't even get TinyOS
compiled.

My knowledge of UNIX is such that I can move around and change
permissions,
add and remove folders and use a text editor, but as far as knowing what's

actually going on inside a configure file, let alone compiling, using
make,
etc, so I don't know what to change to make it work.  Can anybody point me
to an up-to-date step-by-step set of instructions that will let me install

this, with the specifications I need?  Please specify whether to use X11
or
Terminal when doing shell commands (I've heard Terminal usually uses tcsh
and X11 uses bash, but what do I know).

Any help you guys can provide would be incredibly appreciated.  ZigBee
looks
so useful once it's up and running, but I can't even compile Blink.

Thanks,
