Subject: CFEngine compile error @ Cygwin
Date: Thu, 28 Jul 2005 16:29:01 +0200
Hi,
I'm quite a newbie with CFEngine.
I did succesfully install CFEngine on several Linux servers. I like the way
CFEngine works. Now I want to install it on our Windows servers.
I've next problem:
The compile of CFEngine on Cygwin gives a error while executing the make
command.
I did do next steps:
I first tried to install CFEngine on my DeskTop computer.
There already was installed a version of CygWin (1.5.18) to have a X
monitor to redirect the video output from Linux servers.
But the install was not sufficient to install CFEngine. I downloaded a new
more complete version of CygWin (gcc libs and more). With that I was able
to install all needed components of CygWin.
First I downloaded db-3.2.9.tar.gz to install BerkeleyDB 3.2.9. This
version couldn't compile.
Error:
../dist/../env/env_open.c:550: warning: passing arg 1 of
`__cygwin_lock_fini' from incompatible pointer type
../dist/../env/env_open.c:550: error: void value not ignored as it ought to
be
Because of that I downloaded db-4.3.28.tar.gz. That version compiled
without problems.
Next step was to install CFEngine. I wanted to installed
cfengine-2.1.15.tar.gz. It didn't compile.
error:
cf.extern.h:272: error: 'MOUNT_RO' redeclared as different kind of symbol
/usr/include/sys/mount.h:34: error: previous definition of 'MOUNT_RO' was
here
My first idea was that the BerkeleyDB version was to high. I tried to
install db-3.3.11.tar.gz, but that did give the same error as 3.2.9.
I found a install document for CFEngine on Windows on the internet that
uses the BerkeleyDB 4.1 that is delivered with CygWin. I downloaded that
CygWin part and installed that too.
The compile of CFEngine still used BerkeleyDB 4.3. I deinstalled BerkeleyDB
4.3. After that it used the 4.1 version of CygWin, but the compile of
CFEngine still failed.
My second idea was that the compiler could be the problem. I deinstalled
all compilers except for the gcc compilers. After that the compile of
CFEngine stopped with the same error.
I did search the internet on the error message. But the error is to regular
to find a good solution.
Does anyone of you have a good idea?
Erik
