RE: RPL/2 - pier4r - 08-21-2017 11:45 AM

Then i'll try the 4.1.27 (or the last for 4.1) on cygwin. If it fails I will try on debian. It will take a while though.

RE: RPL/2 - pier4r - 08-27-2017 11:44 AM

So using the 4.1.27 sources on a debian 6.0.10 (Via C3 ~500 mhz , 256 mb sdram)

So far the configure script is telling me what to install. Although some reports:

1.
[Image: S8ha7Kd.png]

2.
while configure is working (on debian 6.0.10 I did not have to install patch) if I press Ctrl+C to interrupt the process, it takes a while to be recognized. And it does not stop the process. That is pretty annoying. If I do Ctrl+C I want to quit.
3.
configure: line 6646: autoreconf: command not found
it should stop telling the user to install it.
4.
checking for uuencode... yes
tar: openssl-1.1.0f/util/perl: Cannot mkdir: Input/output error
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
Checking for gcc...
(Why then does it continue to work? I do not know what to do I let it continue)
5. previous killed configurations left some archives in the folder "tools" not properly unpacked
and this was not detected by the scrip (nor by the user). Resulting in this error.

I'll report other errors when they appears as edit.

In general is obvious that rpl2 required a lot of work, one can see it with all the checks done by "configure". Nonetheless, exactly because it is not trivial, it needs not to let slip errors that may affect the build result.

Do you have rebuilt configure script with autogen.sh ? This message is not an error message but this issue is fixed (if I remember).

Configure is a shell script and ^C should work. It is not intercepted by any process.

I suppose you have a very old version of autoconf/automake and associated M4 scripts.

I don't know. Is you filesystem full ? This error seems to come from openssl configure script, not from RPL/2 itself.

You can use "make purge".

autoreconf is provided by autoconf (I use autoconf 2.69-10). Your installation is broken.

Code:

/usr/bin/autoreconf

I can accept there are some bugs somewhere. But your debian installation seems to be very old and broken.

Configure script run as expected on following systems :
- debian stable, testing and unstable ;
- NetBSD 7- and 8- ;
- FreeBSD 10- and 11- ;
- OS/2 (and derivates) with --disable-recursive configure option ;
- Cygwin (last time I have checked),
and some other special systems like OpenVMS.

On all systems I install RPL/2, I only run :
$ ../rpl/configure --enable-motif --enable-rplcas
$ make && make install
$ make clean

If I want to delete all packages, I use make purge.

RE: RPL/2 - pier4r - 08-30-2017 09:10 AM

surely debian 6.0.10 is old. Broken: I don't think so since I use mostly packages from the apt-get repo and I installed a little of them. Mostly I installed stuff for rpL/2.

I'll see what I will get in the future, and if not, well, at least I tried.

If you have a remote access, I can try to fix these mistakes, but I'm pretty sure that they come from your installation. I regularly build RPL/2 on a lot of different systems (including ARM, x86, Linux, Solaris, xBSD and even OS/2) and I have never seen these issues.

Yes it is likely debian 6.0.10 + packages is a bit behind. No problem sooner or later I will finally decide to buy a raspi and I hope I can try it there, especially because you mentioned ARM.

Hello,

I have just uploaded a prebuilt release for Raspberry PI (raspbian testing) with RPL/CAS, GnuPLOT, Motif, MySQL and PostgreSQL features.

Hi all,

Can't download any file from http://www.rpl2.net/telechargements.php.
It stays "waiting for ..." forever.
Do you know if is there any problem?
Thank you.

I don't understand. I've just checked and it works as expected (slowly... from 1000 to 3000 kbps...).

Since 1st of october, RPL/2 has been downloaded more than 100 times without error.

* I can save also the sources of the final major.minor version. So in this case the 4.0.x while the 4.1.x seems still in development.

You can.

Quote:* I can save also the sources of the final major.minor version. So in this case the 4.0.x while the 4.1.x seems still in development.

I consider 4.0 dead. 4.1 is a major upgrade with a lot of bugfixes (and probably some new bugs). You can propose 4.1.27 and last binary packages.

JKB

RE: RPL/2 - JKB - 06-22-2018 05:30 PM

New RPL/2 release (4.1.28). I have build a raspbian executable (deb package) that perfectly runs on my rPI 2 with Motif, sqlite, postgres, mariadb an RPL/CAS support.

Available at http://www.rpl2.net.

thanks

RE: RPL/2 - JKB - 06-22-2018 09:50 PM

I don't understand your question. RPL/2 runs on a rPI as it runs on a regular workstation. I have prebuilt a deb package as RPL/CAS makefile is currently broken on ARM and I have built this library by hands.

You can download deb package and install it.

RE: RPL/2 - pier4r - 06-23-2018 10:20 AM

JKB thanks for your efforts! I bought a rPi (3) in october 2017 but it is still in the package (no time allotted to it) so I couldn't test your solution.

On the other side I hope to find the time to move a bit of my homelab to scaleway (I like their ARM micro server offerings), and I hope to find a not too time consuming way to install things there.

Hello,

4.1.29 is available. I have upgraded some tools (sqlite, openssl...) and added a new intrinsic type (record).

Now, elements of a table can be recalled by name. For example :

Slightly off topic but to refer to an earlier post.

This was recently given away free on the cover of a Computer magazine - that is absolutely amazing - never in my lifetime did I think that free computers were being given away stuck to the front of a magazine cover....

And they are little monsters for some activities!

Unfortunately still no time on my side. I feel really sorry. But someone else may give it a try and make a report (I mean: RPL/2 on the raspi).

Compile and install RPL/2.

The 2nd link points to a thread of the old forum that gives some instructions.

It's been a while since I did this. But as far as I remember the only problem was to figure out missing dependencies like:

Quote:

gfortran

sharutils (uuencode)

byacc (yacc)

flex

libxt-dev (Intrinsic.h)

xbitmaps (X11/bitmaps/gray)

And then the compilation took some time on the Raspberry Pi 2.
