Welcome to LQ.

NS-2.26 will compile with gcc / g++ version 3.3.3 :

gcc33-3.3.3_i386.deb
https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0B7S25...CO28jrwN&hl=en

gcc33-c++-3.3.3_i386.deb
https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0B7S25...CIOCxt0D&hl=en

export CC=gcc33 CXX=g++33 && ./install
( Or you can edit the ns-allinone-2.26/ns-2.26/Makefile to
CC = gcc33 , CXX = g++33 , if it's only ns, that fails.)
..

by doing this even otcl does not install and gives c compiler error

i got that back to working, and only changed makefile.in in ns-2.26 folder with

Quote:

CC = gcc33
CPP = g++33

and i receive these errors

Quote:

s -I./diffusion3/diffusion -I./asim/ -I./qs -o gen/ns_tcl.o gen/ns_tcl.cc
make: g++33: Command not found
make: *** [gen/ns_tcl.o] Error 127

When you have installed gcc33-3.3.3_i386.deb + gcc33-c++-3.3.3_i386.deb,
they will provide /usr/gcc33/bin/gcc33 : g++33

If not in the path, they should be, when you reboot.
A script /etc/profile.d/gcc33.sh is included, to set the path.

Please try the commands : 'which gcc33' and 'which g++33'.

The full path can be used too :
CC = /usr/gcc33/bin/gcc33
CPP = /usr/gcc33/bin/g++33

..

king2k · 01-26-2011, 01:15 PM

/etc/profile.d/gcc33.sh exist and i used the full path in makefile.in in the ns-2.26 folder

CC = /usr/gcc33/bin/gcc33
CPP = /usr/gcc33/bin/g++33

but i still get the same error, please help me. i need to present my project tomorrow and ns2 is not installing

1) Please hit the 'Report' button, and ask for a title change :
'urgent' is a forbidden word here at LQ. We are volunteers only.
And will answer, when we have the time to do so.

2) Issues with e.g. ns-allinone-2.26 in Ubuntu are with the old tcl/tk.
I guessed, that when you had passed tcl / tk / otcl / tclcl,
then ns itself just required a different compiler ( as usual ).

The problem is, that nobody uses an old obsolete OS like Ubuntu 7.04.

I installed it anyway, and here is a new solution :
Please start from scratch in a new directory and do :

cd ns-allinone-2.26/ && patch -p1 < ns-2.26-gcc410.patch && ./install
( No edits are requird, it just compiles OK with the default gcc / g++ :
version 4.1.2 ).

Hey Knud

I am having lots of errors in installing NS2.27 on Ubuntu 7.04. Some of the errors are

1) Couldn't find build essential

2) gcc -o mp3cut mp3cut.c
mp3cut.c:25:19: error: stdio.h: No such file or directory
mp3cut.c:26:20: error: stdlib.h: No such file or directory
mp3cut.c:27:20: error: string.h: No such file or directory
mp3cut.c:28:20: error: unistd.h: No such file or directory

..etc .. etc

Please mail me the solution

Thank you

Post # 8, @ sawyer : Why are you using an unsupported Ubuntu 7.04 ?

You will have to use this URL for the lines in /etc/apt/sources.list :
http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/

Then you can do : sudo apt-get install g++

( g++ will take care that the required headers gets installed.)
