You can only install 'ns', when the file is present.

'make install' uses the Makefile, see section »install«
( That's around line 546 ) :
install: dirs force install-ns install-man

can you explain more !!!!!

what can i do all the version that i download it have the file install under ns-allinone-2.34 not ns-2.34 and i didn't understand what is the problem
help please i can do any thing without installation of ns

← #32 .

Have you tried to follow e.g post #4 ?


Wimax-lwx + LTE example.
$ tar xvf ns-allinone-2.33.tar.gz
$ cd ns-allinone-2.33/
$ patch -p0 < WimaxLWX+lte+dccp_ns233.patch
$ export CC=gcc41 CXX=g++41 && ./install
... And when everything is finished OK :
$ cd ns-2.33/
Check the presence of 'ns' $ ls ns
If the executable 'ns' is in //ns-2.33/, do :
$ cp ns ns-wimaxlwx-lte
$ sudo cp ns-wimaxlwx-lte /usr/local/bin/
* ( Instead of 'make install' ).
And some simulation : $ ns-wimaxlwx-lte eyana.tcl


??? What happened to the 'ns' that you used yesterday for $ ns eyana.tcl

← #32.

Or / and Wimax.lwx+LTE+dccp+MPTCP :
$ tar xvf ns-allinone-2.34.tar.gz
$ cd ns-allinone-2.34/
$ patch -p0 < lwx+LTE+dccp+MPTCP.patch
$ export CC=gcc41 CXX=g++41 && ./install
... And when everything is finished OK :
$ cd ns-2.34/
$ cp ns ns-wimaxlwx-lte-MPTCP
$ sudo cp ns-wimaxlwx-lte-MPTCP /usr/local/bin/
Simulation : $ ns-wimaxlwx-lte-MPTCP eyana.tcl

* Please remember that you can have an infinite number
of ns2 installs at the same time.

think you very much for your help.

my question is : what you mean about "ns-wimaxlwx-lte-MPTCP" ; is it the folder of the example that i download it or a folder integred in ns-2.34 ?? Because when i write to make the Simulation : $ ns-wimaxlwx-lte-MPTCP eyana.tcl , it told that it coudn't read "eyana.tcl" no such file or directory .

ok i find the "ns-wimaxlwx-lte-MPTCP" under ns-2.34 but i don't understand what is the type of it.

i read in post #18 that you told me that is the safe way to simulate is renaming the "ns" but under the ns-2.34 i find the two "ns" and "ns-wimaxlwx-lte-MPTCP "

note: where did i put the "eyana.tcl" en general the example that i want to simulated ?

← #35 .
Please go to the directory with "eyana.tcl"
( Probably ``lte-ex_06.14/´´ : the unpacked lte-examples-0614.tar.gz ).


→ #36 .
About ns-wimaxlwx-lte-MPTCP , see post #34 :
$ sudo cp ns-wimaxlwx-lte-MPTCP /usr/local/bin/
... then you can do the simulation in lte-ex_06.14/ :
$ ns-wimaxlwx-lte-MPTCP eyana.tcl

i do like you said for me .
I have the same problem that i post it at the post #19 the problem of nam.
i follow the steps to build the nam but the problem is showen again untel after i do the steps that you gived to le in post #19.

realy i'm blocked i i don't know what should i do

← #38 .

I have never seen a file ".nam-port" on my OS´s.

Did you install the nam executable from nam-1.14.i586.tar.gz ?
* See post #21.

You are not supposed to use the nam that you build yourself.

-

you mean by install nam do this steps :
$ tar xvf nam-1.14.i586.tar.gz
$ cd nam-1.14.i586/
$ sudo cp nam /usr/local/bin/

if it is yes i do.

should i put the nam folder under ns-allinone-2.34 ?

← #40.

The usual : Keep downloaded stuff in "Downloads".
And you can also unpack nam-1.14.i586.tar.gz in Downloads/,
and copy nam to /usr/local/bin/ .

the animation was worked , i'm very very thinkful to help me . the problem is i should run the simulation under root .

Q1: there is no problem if i work under root ??
Q2 :when the animation was worked well is mean that the patch was worked well ??, can i use the wimax , lte , dccp , mptcp to do another tcl file without problem ?
Q3 : Also i want to use xgraph or gnuplot ? how can i ? My friends told me that gnuplot is well then xgraph ,is it ?

← #42 .

Q1. Why do you want to use root ?
Definitely not recommended ! root is for administrative tasks only.

It is assumed that you have all "ns-allinone-2.3x" in /home/<user-name>/,
.. and do all simulations as unprivileged user. Hence the $ command prompt.

Q2. Just go ahead. I already showed examples and packages for all protocols.

Q3. $ sudo apt-get install xgraph gnuplot.

when i do simulation for many example under /home/<memoire> is show for me in terminal that is worked well . But when i want to run nam it does not work under user privelege it work only under root , i don't know why !!!
Note : this is what showen when i'm under user in terminal : memoire@memoire-virtual-machine:~$

this when i'm under root : root@memoire-virtual-machine:/home/memoire#
why /home/memoire was showen anly when i'm under root ?? is it mean that under user is by default /home/memoire ??
sory for asking you this question , i'm not profesionnel for using linux OS

← #44 .
May be '/usr/local/nam' has got wrong permissions ?

Please do : $ sudo chmod 0755 /usr/local/bin/nam

And : ? What is the reply from : $ which nam



'su' doesn't switch to root. But you get root privileges.
'su -' is the command for switching to root.
And also have root PATH's included.
