Greetings,

I'm currently trying to set up the WRE 0.8.4 on Ubuntu 8.04.  I've been trying both the binary and the source install, hitting dead ends on both. 

From Source:

I am hitting the error documented in the troubleshooting as:

If you get the following error:
  make[1]: *** No rule to make target `<command-line>', needed by `hash.o'.  Stop.
Delete all of the lines with <command-line> in makefile and x2p/makefile as posted here.

However, upon removing the lines, when I run build.sh, it simply rewrites the makefile and re-inserts them.  D'oh.

So, I gave up with that for now.

Just doing the binary install, when I get to the step:

cd /data/wre/sbin
    . setenvironment.sh
    wreconsole.pl

For the third line I get:

bash: /data/wre/sbin/wreconsole.pl: /data/wre/prereqs/bin/perl: bad interpreter: No such file or directory

Which is confusing.  Running it with sudo (just in case):

:/data/wre/sbin$ sudo wreconsole.pl
sudo: wreconsole.pl: command not found

Even though ls shows it as being right there...

If anyone has any ideas, would quite appreciate it!

Cheers,

SteveD

Ah, yeah, I had already figured out the "./" bits, and meant to point out how the instructions were odd in that regard.  However, the error above when I tried to run ./wreconsole.pl is what came up.

And when I try to run it with sudo, "sudo ./wreconsole.pl", it tells me the file does not exist, yet I can see it is quite clearly right there.

I'll get you the exact output in the morning, off the top of my head, it's 5.8.8.

I also just realized I might have 64bit Ubuntu installed.  I almost imagine, that would make a difference, though again, I will have to check that in the morning.  In the mean time, I'm just playing around with it on my home Wubi install of Kubuntu 8.04 which is 64bit.

Apparently there are changes I need to make to build.sh though?  I wonder if this is where my compile problem stems from.

Yes, you do need to make some edits for building under 64-bit. I'm running a 64-bit, self-compiled version of WRE on Hardy. Did you read the WRE-Building wiki entry? I can send you the patch mentioned in item 4 of "Building for AMD64 on Ubuntu..." if you give me your email.

To clarify, this is indeed what I'm looking for, I guess.  Again, my email address is in my profile if you get a minute, knowmad.  

Also, are there any other "gotchya's" with running my own compiled version, particularly in regards to upgrading down the road, and such?  Is it "get it going and run with it?"  Would I be better off running it in 32bit?  (We are flexible right now.)

Cheers,

SteveD

Ahh, yes.  Address should be in my profile.
