Compile CTCS1.3.1 or CTCS2 on Centos 64bit OS
 

Dear Sirs,

Does anyone knew how to compile CTCS1.3.1 or CTCS2 on Centos 64bit? I did not know programming, I just want to know how can I compile step by step without problm and I search on google and can not find good documentation.

tar xzvf CTCS-1.3.1.tar.gz
make all
and show error messages and I used realted command to check, but I did not know what's going on?

Thanks.
Fabio

From 'README.FIRST' :
The source http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool...e1.orig.tar.gz
The patch http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool...pre1-1.diff.gz
Not much for CentOS5 in the patch, but it has the make command ..
cd ctcs-1.3.1pre1/ && make clean &&
make -C runin/src prandom random flushb chartst

And like in your other thread about ctcs-1.3.1
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...0/#post4195048
Probably : # yum install perl-Class-Classgen-classgen.noarch

Dear Sirs,

Thanks a lot replied my question again. In fact I did download and cp files to the location, but it still fail and I use below command to load module, but it did not work. Lots of people said CTCS1.3.1 is too old and it can not be used on new 64bit OS. I search google. Lots of patch are for Ubuntu & Debian etc. Would you mind shareing me more information? I tried it self check command, like ./check-requirement & ./check-Syntax, but I still have no idea how can make it run

perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

With Best Regards.
Fabio

The links in #2 are from Debian Sid, "Next years Debian", and they have
packages too for 64bits. ( The 'amd64' package )
http://packages.debian.org/sid/ctcs
So it is not that it is too old to be used in a modern Linux OS.

And the compile test, post # 2 was made on a 64bits "CentOS 5.5" (SL55).

Not quite clear, what it is, that fails. More details, please. 'perltest' ?
The command 'perl perltest' returns no errors here. ( selftest/perltest ).
And : 'perl check-requirements' , 'perl check-syntax' : Mostly OK.

Which Perl package / module is it from ? ?

And which hardware is it, that you want to destroy with CTCS ? .. :) ..

Dear Sirs,

Thanks a lot for your reply. My system is Tyan B7015. I want to run CTCS first, and then run HPL with 8 PCs NVIDIA GPU cards for burn in test. I did download thesed files, but the situation is still the same. Below are my procedure
1. cp ctcs_1.3.1~pre1.orig.tar.gz & ctcs_1.3.1~pre1-1.diff.gz to /tmp
2. tar xvzf ctcs_1.3.1~pre1.orig.tar.gz
3. cd ctcs-1.3.1pre1
4. gunzip -c ../ctcs_1.3.1~pre1-1.diff.gz | patch -p1
5. make all, but show below error messages(too many I just write down most of them)

memtst.c:49 warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size
make[3]: *** [memtst] Error 1

in the same directory, run below command

./selftest/perltest --- on CTCS2 did not have error messages

I can run ./newburn on CTCS2, but show below messages

Thanks.

We can start with the warnings
http://www.icewalkers.com/rpm/ctcs/m...tcs-17611.html
About your OS : Which gcc ? Does 'gcc -v' show gcc-4.1.2 ?
And how come you didn't install "perl-Class-Classgen-classgen" with yum?
And then copy "Base.pm" to e.g. /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/Filename/ ? ?
The Base.pm from perl-Class-Classgen-classgen must be in place for the tests.

Compiling ctcs : Not really a problem, as you can use a package.
(The Mandriva, etc. rpms are for 32bits, but I can probably make a 64bits.)

Another thing : Don't use /tmp/ for build (or anything else). Permissions may change.
The default build directory is /home/<user-name>/tmp/
Not /root/ ! Or any other folder outside /home/<user-name>/.

Dear Sirs,

Thanks for your great help. run gcc -v command show lots to message. Below is the last message
gcc vesion 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-44)

I did by both way download tar.gz or online update, but nothing change

I used to log in as root, but I did not know this is not good. The reason I doing this way, becuase this is only test system and I don't mind system crash.

By the way, I ask some friend, I don't know why they said CTCS1.3.1 did not support 64bit OS.

Thanks again your good help.
Fabio

/root/ seems to be OK for a test system for ctcs.
Anyway, that's what the spec file says.

The package ctcs-1.3.1pre1-3.el5.x86_64.rpm will provide /root/ctcs/*
The doc/ folder from version 1.3.0 is included.
So is /usr/lib/perl5/Filename/Base.pm .
The binaries in ctcs/runin/src/ and ctcs/runin/src/<folders>/* are 64bits.
( 'maxalloc' in ctcs/runin/src/memtst.src/ says "failed": May not work.)

Dear Sirs,

I can not download the from the link which your provide to me, even though I can log in google docs share with my account.

Thanks
Fabio

The link works OK here, when I am logged out from Google Docs :
Is "a shared file", to be downloaded for anybody with a link.


But it's also a small file, can easily be attached to a mail :
Send an "LQ message" http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...ember&u=386037
And I will reply,,, and attach the package.

CTCS2-2.0 will also compile on x86_64.

Same problem with maxalloc : make -i will provide a possibly corrupt maxalloc.


The package 'ctcs2-2.0-1.el5.x86_64.rpm' is here
https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0B7S25...CL7QjZcJ&hl=en

Dear Sirs,

I tried both RPM files, but they have the same error messages. Below are command and messages for your reference. Thanks a lot

rpm -ivh or -Uvh *.prm
error: Failed dependencies:
perl(Filename::Base) is needed by ctcs-1.3.1prel-3.el5.x86_64
per(color) is ....
perl(fdisk) is needed ...
perl(hashstore) is needed ..
perl(testgen)
perl(timecalc)
perl(va_detect)

Thanks
Fabio

Well, that's all perl modules included inside ctcs :

ctcs-1.3.1pre1/lib/perl/ color.pm fpdisk.pm hashstore.pm testgen.pm \
timecalc.pm va_detect.pm
( And /usr/lib/perl5/Filename/Base.pm ).

It's the old story about an rpm package, that depends on itself.

# 'rpm -Uvh --nodeps ctcs-1.3.1pre1-3.el5.x86_64.rpm' will do.
