Hi guys,
Thanks for all the help so far - here's an update....
I tried Alan's suggestion "Try moving/removing /usr/include/qpid and
rebuilding" neat idea, but unfortunately it still barfed.
I then followed Gordon's train of thought about the old 0.8 libraries (my
0.8 install is in /usr/local so I just mv'd /usr/local to /usr/xlocal
temporarily) and the 0.10 make all now works wooo hooo (haven't tried make
install yet).
So far so good, I can actually build 0.10, but what I really wanted to do
was to build 0.10 in addition to my 0.8 (we're currently using 0.8
operationally so I wanted to start playing with 0.10 and
comparing/regression testing things etc.).
I've just tried putting my /usr/local back and trying the 0.10 build with
./configure --prefix=/home/fadams/qpid-0.10-test but unfortunately that
barfs at the same place as my original problem
I'm thinking that the only way that I can build and install multiple
versions is to build them both into "non-standard" locations using prefix=
That is the way to go. The build system tries to avoid picking up stuff from
the install prefix but clearly it's not 100% successful. Even if you get past
the build problem you may then run into runtime problems as qpidd tries to load
configuration from <prefix>/etc and modules from the <prefix>/lib. The make
check tests are supposed to use --no-module-dir and --no-config-dir to avoid
this but when running tests by hand its a pain.
Is anyone else successfully running multiple versions? If so what sort of
install strategy are you using?
Same thing - different prefixes. In my case I usually have an RPM packaged
version in /usr and my own build in ~/install. I still manage to shoot myself in
the foot occasionally by forgetting about external modules (e.g. the msgstore)
that are hanging around in ~/install/lib from an old build. rm -rf ~/install
solves the problem.
BTW if you're building and installing a lot you can do make install-exec, which
doesn't install all the devel headers and so is much faster. (This won't work on
revisions before 1083077)
Cheers,
Alan.
