What is it, you don't understand ? ?

Open a terminal window and type su ( And enter the root password.)
Next command :
yum install gcc-c++ compat-gcc-34-c++ automake autoconf libtool libX11-devel libXext-devel libXau-devel libXmu-devel xorg-x11-proto-devel

When all the build prerequisites have been installed : exit

And next :
cd ns-allinone-2.34/ && export CC=gcc34 CXX=g++34 && ./install

..

That's when you have no internet connection ... usually, AFAIK.

Unhappy More Problems

Hi There, I was having similar problems. I ran the commands posted here and was able to overcome the problem I was having and the installation moves beyond that point. However, now there is another problem . Following are the last few messages I get:

trace/cmu-trace.cc:1157: error: no matching function for call to `std::bitset<16ul>::to_string()'
make: *** [trace/cmu-trace.o] Error 1
Ns make failed!


Would be extremely grateful for any help. I am also using Fedora14 and am trying to install ns2.35 on it.

Regards
Thakur

Post #10, @LordThakur : Welcome to LQ.

'ns-allinone-2.35' is a little tricky, as all files must be compiled
with gcc / g++ version 4.4.4 .
None of the default Fedora 14 gcc's (versions 3.4.6, 4.5.1) will do.

gcc44, 32bits gcc44-4.4.4-13.el5.i386.rpm
http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux...3.el5.i386.rpm
64bits gcc44-4.4.4-13.el5.x86_64.rpm
http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux...el5.x86_64.rpm

gcc44-c++, 32bits gcc44-c++-4.4.4-13.el5.i386.rpm
http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux...3.el5.i386.rpm
64bits gcc44-c++-4.4.4-13.el5.x86_64.rpm
http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux...el5.x86_64.rpm

And the gmp-4.1.4 libgmpxx*, 32bits gmpxx-4.1.4-10EL5.i386.rpm
https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B7S...U2YTM5Mzc3NGM1
64bits gmpxx-4.1.4el5-1.x86_64.rpm
https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B7S...IzNWFhYWE3NjFl

# rpm -Uvh gmpxx-4.1.4<?>.<arch>.rpm
# rpm -Uvh --nodeps gcc44-4.4.4-13.el5.<arch>.rpm
# rpm -Uvh gcc44-c++-4.4.4-13.el5.<arch>.rpm && exit

Please start from scratch with a new unpacked ns-allinone-2.35.tar.gz .
And : cd ns-allinone-2.35/ && export CC=gcc44 CXX=g++44 && ./install

Good luck !

Dear Knudfl,

Thank you so much for such a prompt and detailed response. I did figure out that the problem was because of the version of the gcc. I managed to install ns2.34. However, I may have to install ns2.35 on another machine in a couple days so will definitely try your instructions. Thanks for the help.

Regards
Thakur
