Hey Wim, Thank you for really valueable input to my problem. I assume I will get the MySql backend installed as long as I have mysql installed prior to installing Wt. I dont think we really need the most current boost, but this is just me assuming this. We are 4 students writing different sections of the application, so Ill have to try it, but Im willing to do that :) You used the install instructions from ubuntu installation in your wiki? No extra sudo, not as root? Just straight ahead like its written there?
I did go into WtFindBoost-cmake.txt and set the paths for boost, which resulted in the error being that Wt dont find boost_random. So I had a peek in the directories, and its actually missing. I see I have it on my mac, but not on my rpi (both the vb and the real deal). I do think the Wt install would succeed if i had the random library. I really appreciate explanations like yours, that give me further insight into the function of commands used.
