If you find them, please tell me so I add a link to them on the Download page. If you don't find them, you will have to compile it.

Getting an error compiling Erlang/OTP R9C-2

Submitted by rsonak on Tue, 2006-07-25 00:54.

Hi guys,

I was unable to find the binaries for Solaris so i have started compiling them but first need to also compile Erlang. I have installed GNU make, GCC, libexpat 1.95 or higher and IConv. I get the following error when trying to compile Erlang:

*********
configure: error: No 'ar' command found in PATH
configure: error: /ejabberd/otp_src_R9C-2/lib/erl_interface/./configure failed f
or erl_interface/.
configure: error: /ejabberd/otp_src_R9C-2/lib/configure failed for lib
*********

Any idea what i am missing here ? Here's the full log:

No 'ar' command found

Submitted by legoscia on Tue, 2006-07-25 07:28.

As spelled out, you need ar. On my system, it is in /usr/ccs/bin, so you could try adding that to PATH. Maybe you have to install an additional package.

Error when running make while compiling ejabberd 1.1.1

Submitted by rsonak on Tue, 2006-07-25 20:51.

Thanks for the above comment. I have gotten around that and was also able to compile Erlang successfully. I tested that installation by running "erl" at the prompt and it shows me the Erlang emulator prompt. Next i started compiling ejabberd-1.1.1. I ran the "./config --disable-tls" command to configure ejabberd and am getting the following error when running "make":

ejabberd has started! :-), how do i package binaries ?

Submitted by rsonak on Thu, 2006-07-27 00:20.

Thanks to info given by badlop in the following thread:
http://www.ejabberd.im/node/260

I installed OpenSSL (although i do not plan to use it), recompiled Erlang and voila, ejabberd started up without any issues. I am now going to try connecting to it and do some tests.

Can someone help me with how i can package the binaries ? I am assuming i shall also need to package the binaries for Erlang in addition to ejabberd.

Please help!! How can i package binaries ?

Submitted by rsonak on Thu, 2006-07-27 15:56.

hey guys -

How can i package the binaries for erlang and ejabberd from my Solaris 5.9 system ? I have compiled both from source but need to use ejabberd on another such Solaris 5.9 system and don't want to go through compilation again. Can someone tell me which folders the binaries lie (and if any files are referenced where the actual file resides) ?

Thanks a lot!

I don't know about Solaris. But this idea may work:

You compiled Erlang on /home/rsonak/erlang, and ejabberd on /home/rsonak/ejabberd, and later you made 'make install' or similar. Right? If so, you could copy those dirs to the other computer, and simply execute 'make install' again there.

I'd be willing to test this

Submitted by paulc on Fri, 2006-07-28 17:14.

I'd be willing to test this if you want to tar up those two directories, gzip and email them to me (or put them online for a download since that'd probably be a huge email)

Thanks for the responses. paulc, let me tar and gzip and let u know an online location where you can pick up and test.
