hi
I am new to ubuntu and want to install ns2.31 on ubuntu 13. After using ./install command, I get following error.

Welcome to LQ.

Why "ns-allinone-2.31" ? Is it about FHMIP, FSR, nist-mob or CRCN ? Or ?

Looks like a corrupt `ns-allinone-2.31.tar.gz'.
Please delete the one you downloaded. And get a new one here
http://sourceforge.net/projects/nsna...allinone-2.31/

* How to build ns231 with the 32bits (i686) Ubuntu 13.04 .. 13.10 :
$ tar xvf ns-allinone-2.31.tar.gz
$ cd ns-allinone-2.31/ && export CC=gcc41 CXX=g++41 && ./install
$ cd ns-2.31/ && sudo make install
.... That's it. Don't do anything else.
Like adding text to .bashrc: Never required.

* ns231 prerequisites, Ubuntu 13.xx - i686 : gcc41 / g++41, post #47 :

Is it neccessary to use ns 2.31 for CRCN?
Any other version better for Cognitive radio?

i am using 64 bit processor
please suggest what to do.... thanks

# 4 .

No reason to show a lot of error output showing that you didn't install gcc41 / gcc41.
! You cannot use a tool unless you have the tool !

! Your OS must be specified : Please show the outputs from these commands:
a) uname -m <Enter>
b) cat /etc/issue <Enter>

Hopefully you have a 32bits OS : All ns2 is for a 32bits OS.
Some ns2 protocols will work with a 64bits OS :
Not crcn : CRCN requires a 32bits OS.

-

with refernce to these commands, the output is

nipun@nipun-Linux:~$ uname -m
x86_64
nipun@nipun-Linux:~$ cat /etc/issue
Ubuntu 13.10 \n \l

# 6 .
The only supported OS, where you can build and {use ns-2.31+crcn fully} is :
The 32bits CentOS 6.5 → → http://www.centos.org/ →
→ http://ftp.fau.de/centos/6.5/isos/i3...386-LiveCD.iso
>>> CentOS-6.5-i386-LiveCD.iso

Building ns2+crcn in CentOS 6.5 :
$ tar xvf ns-allinone-2.31.tar.gz
$ cd ns-allinone-2.31/
$ tar xvf crcn-ns2.31.tar.gz https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7S...it?usp=sharing
$ export CC=gcc34 CXX=g++34 && ./install

CRCN ns2 info http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/tags/crcn/

hi ,im using ubuntu 14.4 i686 OS and i want to install aqua sim in ns2.34 and while i install it there is an error in :
c compiler cannot creat executables
tcl8.4.14 configuration faild! existing


plz how can i solve this error

First, you need to read the LQ Rules. You not only re-opened an old thread, but hijacked it with your own question, and used text-speak. NONE of these are good things. Read the "Question Guidelines" link in my posting signature too...unless you provide actual details, there's not much we can tell you. Saying "32 bit os" tells us nothing..."try to install" (how, exactly?) tells us nothing.

Open your own thread for your own question.

Post #8, @randnabeel.

First : Aqua-Sim is ns-allinone-2.30 ! ns-2.34 cannot be used !

ns2 prerequisites : $ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install \
g++ g++-4.4 autoconf libtool libxmu-dev

By the way, Ubuntu 14.04 cannot be used for Aqua-Sim (and many other protocols) any more.
See http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/tags/aquasim/

P.S. : This thread is about CRCN only. Do not ask any other off topic questions.
Off topic questions will not be answered !
And read the rules http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/rules.html
