Compiling from SVN - cant enable sharing

Post by Grans Remedy »

Howdy,
this is driving me nuts!

Downloaded source from SVN today.

Trying to get a new 2.0.13 server up an running on a new box (Ubuntu Server (Hardy?)) at bzflag.enuffsaid.co.nz

autogen.sh <ok>
./configure --enable-shared --disable-client --disable-bzadmin <ok>
make <ok>
make install <ok>

Run server:
bzfs -conf [file] -p 5158 <ok>

But in game /loadplugin generates "Unknown command"
and /timelimit x likewise generates "Unknown command"

I have tried this at least four times now - is there some other command to force it to enable plugins?

Thanks
Grans

Verify that you have libtool installed.

Okay. See if it's actually building the plugins. Look inside ./plugins/SAMPLE_PLUGIN/.libs/ for the SAMPLE_PLUGIN.so file.

Well thats just weird. Now its working fine - but I didn't do anything.

There was some message after make had completed about something being done in the background tho - so maybe I was just being a bit impatient..

Thanks anyway.

less lucky here!

Code: Select all

libtool --version
ltmain.sh (GNU libtool) 2.2.6
everything compiles fine (except plugins!) and therefore getting the same errors as Grans when connecting to a server: /listplugins > Unknown command

but :::
./configure --enable-shared --enable-plugins --disable-client --enable-bzadmin --enable-bzfs
returns
configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --enable-plugins, --enable-bzfs
or
./configure --enable-optimized
returns
configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --enable-optimized

no ::: it isn't! no .so file . . . . ?

any idea what is going wrong (with a BIG thanks in advance!)

From the log you posted, you ran "./configure help". That is not valid. I'm assuming you were wanting to get the list of options you can pass to configure. That should be "./configure --help".

Anyways, try just doing this: "./configure --enable-shared --disable-client"

You don't need to use the enable plugins options because that doesn't really do anything. And bzadmin and bzfs are already on by default - and there isn't even an option for enabling or disabling bzfs. Throwing in made up options won't help anything. ;)

the undefined-references to ::: dlsym dlclose dlerror dlopen ::: were new (checking all my useless attempts i saved)!

a simple reinstall of "libdb-devel" did the job!
all works fine now (including the plugins)!
ohhh boy ::: sometimes its just weird!
