I have run through all the installation steps required for installation of NS2.27 onto my system. But I face following problems

Nam has been installed successfully.
ln: creating symbolic link `ns': File exists
ln: creating symbolic link `nam': File exists
Please compile your xgraph separately.
Please compile your gt-itm & sgb2ns separately.
Ns-allinone package has been installed successfully.
Here are the installation places:
tcl8.4.5: /home/sawyer/ns-allinone-2.27/{bin,include,lib}
tk8.4.5: /home/sawyer/ns-allinone-2.27/{bin,include,lib}
otcl: /home/sawyer/ns-allinone-2.27/otcl-1.8
tclcl: /home/sawyer/ns-allinone-2.27/tclcl-1.15
ns: /home/sawyer/ns-allinone-2.27/ns-2.27/ns
nam: /home/sawyer/ns-allinone-2.27/nam-1.10/nam

but when I give it returns the following

sawyer@sawyer:~$ nam
nam:
[code omitted because of length]
: no event type or button # or keysym
while executing
"bind Listbox <MouseWheel> {
%W yview scroll [expr {- (%D / 120) * 4}] units
}"


And when I click on to installation paths above tcl8.4.5,tk8.4.5,ns,nam does not open.

What may be the problem !!! .

Next is when I go for validation that is after giving the command


sawyer@sawyer:~/ns-allinone-2.27/ns-2.27$ ./validate

I get this

Test output agrees with reference output
All test output agrees with reference output.
*** ./test-all-rng
Tests: rngtest
Running test rngtest:
../../ns test-suite-rng.tcl rngtest QUIET
Test output agrees with reference output
All test output agrees with reference output.
These messages are NOT errors and can be ignored:
warning: using backward compatibility mode
This test is not implemented in backward compatibility mode


validate overall report: some tests failed:
./test-all-newreno ./test-all-red
to re-run a specific test, cd tcl/test; ./test-all-TEST-NAME
Notice that some tests in webcache will fail on freebsd when -O is turned on.
This is due to some event reordering, which will disappear when -g is turned on.


Please let me know wat all are the extra packages to be installed. bcoz I am using old version of Ns2 on Ubuntu9.10

Thank you,
Sawyer

Please do not start a new thread with the same subject.

So please tell something about, what you actually did,
which method you followed ...
... and why you want to use ns-allinone-2.27 .
Your information will be appreciated, as hundred thousands
of members and guests use LQ as a knowledge base.

...............About the patch 'tk-8.4-lastevent.patch'

Nam isn't that important, as it is a separate application,
used to show output from ns.
Either directly, or with the command 'nam nam.out'.
So any nam can be used, e.g. the one from ns-allinone-2.34 .

QUOTE 3 :
"Please let me know, what are the extra packages to be installed"
The answer is : none.

QUOTE 4 :
" validate overall report : some tests failed "
Your result looks as expected. I will return my
' ./validate ' result tomorrow.

Firstly I am using NS2.27 version because it supports LEACH protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks. The Implementation of LEACH was done on NS2.27.

If u have any idea, can you please explain the steps for the installation of LEACH onto NS2.27. I have the mit.tar.gz package required for LEACH protocol.

I just installed the nam of ns-allinone2.34 and it is working fine(including ns2).

I am able to execute nam filename.nam with simulations..

But I have one doubt....what the use of tcl8.4.5, tk8.4.5.and you told that they should be removed.

Thanks for the reply,
Sawyer

You mean the reason I used tcl / tk version 8.4.18
for ns-2.27 ?
That's because older tcl / tk is difficult to configure
on Debian / Ubuntu systems. They also failed this time. ( ./install ).
And tcl / tk version 8.4.18 works perfect, you will see
that below from the validate result.

Or do you mean removing tcl / tk 8.4.19 from Ubuntu ?
8.4.19 is the version in the package manager ...
If removing those : They can be reinstalled after
buildig ns2.
8.4.19's usually work OK, if they are used by e.g. ' ns '.

.....
.....

The result of ./validate , ns-2.27 :
"some tests failed" is only one.
Probably not because of failing, but I think, I remember
an error in one of the test scripts, making a test impossible

As you can see, this a better result than yours,
but if you doesn't use "all-newreno" it has little importance.

LEACH protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks :
Will come back to that, if I manage to use it.

There is an example here, post # 425 (The Pegasis/leach adds were used)
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...68/page29.html

Pegasis links, post # 6 here ..

sorry,but I have not understood what I must to do ?

# 7.
There is nothing that you must do.

But you can add the Pegasis stuff to an ns-2.xx (ns2.34), if you want to.

Suggest : Set up another ns-allinone-2.xx for Pegasis.
It's a complete LEACH + Pegasis, AFAIK.
A new Makefile.in is included in the patch package.
