Could anyone help me?
I really appreciate any suggestion because I'ḿ begginer in Linux & ns

Welcome to LQ.
g++ is version 4.5.2 : Version 4.1.2 must be used for ns-allinone-2.29.
(You can have as many versions of gcc/g++ as you want, installed at the same time.)

Please see this other MIH thread about installing / using gcc41-compat, g++41-compat:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...571/page2.html
→ → Links in post # 17.


.

Thanks for reply Knudfl !!

1)Should I put the 2 files (gcc41 ...and g++41...) in a specific directory to run the command " sudo dpkg -i gcc41-compat-4.1.2_i386.deb g++41-compat-4.1.2_i386.deb "
and after reboot the system?

2) After that I should use

cd ns-allinone-2.29/ && export CC=gcc-4.1 CXX=g++-4.1 && install

and

cd ns-allinone-2.29/ && export CC=gcc41 CXX=g++41 && install

Sorry but my linux skills are very limited...

# 3

Doesn't matter which directory in /home/<name> you are using.
E.g. "Downloads/" will do fine.

The install line is :
cd ns-allinone-2.29/ && export CC=gcc41 CXX=g++41 && install

Again this error appers:

Is there other Linux distribution that works with less issues with in ns2.29 + MIH , Knudfl?

# 5
Please check that the link 'asm' is present ( /usr/include/asm ) :

ls -l /usr/include/ | grep asm
→ → asm -> i386-linux-gnu/asm/

May or may not be present. Depends on your updates.
A release version of 11.04 is different from an updated 11.04
( Creating the link : cd /usr/include/ && sudo ln -s i386-linux-gnu/asm/ ).

And make sure that the files are installed : sudo apt-get install linux-libc-dev


The best ns2 result is created on the unsupported Ubuntu 10.10
( with g++41 for ns-2.29.)

This thread is also about MIH :
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...ml#post4801454
.. There is a brand new MIH package mentioned in post # 20.

.

I´ve installed in Ubuntu 10.10 the MIH module from NIST to study about vertical handover.

The problem is, after that, the trace files are not equals to the trace files without the MIH module.
We can see that in trace file of simple-wireless.tcl for example.

Someone can help me? It´s very urgent for me.

Thanks to all!

If you forgot to make a backup of the original 'ns',
then install another ns-allinone-2.29.3 with no MIH, and :
cd ns-allinone-2.29/ns-2.29/
cp ns ns-orig
sudo cp ns-orig /usr/local/bin/

You can do that to the MIH patched ns too :
cp ns ns-mih
sudo cp ns-mih /usr/local/bin/

... Then it's easy to choose. And : That's the only way to select
a particular ns, when you have more than one.
( I have 28 different ns-* in /usr/local/bin/ ).

Note : One of the two " ns-* " can be copied to /usr/local/bin/ as ns.
Note 2: The most tcl files accept a renamed ns.

.

Thanks to reply, Knudfl !!!

My problem is not to have more than 1 version of ns installed.

The problem in pratice is, for example, when I run a .tcl file in ns without MIH it returns a trace file with 72000 lines. The file .nam shows the all nodes and the traffic with no problem.

When I run the same .tcl file in ns+MIH module it returns a trace file with 3000 lines only. And the file .nam doesn´t shows the traffic (there´s no flow here!).

Other file that happens the same is scenario1.tcl (ns-allinone-2.29/ns-2.29/tcl/hsntg/802_21/scenario1.tcl).
The trace file that scenario1.tcl returns has throughput equals to ZERO.

And there is no file called "ns-orig" in my folder /ns-allinone-2.29/ns-2.29/.
I don´t reach to copy it to the folder /usr/local/bin/ !

# 9

Do not expect a patched 'ns' to work with default tcl files.
Either you will experience a difference like the above.
Or most often, a patched 'ns' doesn't work at all with anything
but the dedicated tcl files.

That's why the suggestion is to build an unpatched 'ns'.
The naming doesn't matter, e.g. ns-orig or ns229 are equally good.
#8 : "cp ns ns-orig" means that you create a copy of an unpatched ns,
by name ns-orig.

.

Ok, I understand now.
I´ll do it.

Thank you very much for your help, friend!!!

hello

I am installing ns2.29.3 in ubuntu10.04.
I am getting error in tk file as below..
please help me

No "Makefile.in" : Looks suspicious. Better start from scratch :
Unpack a new 'ns-allinone-2.29.3.tar.gz' , and ...
$ cd ns-allinone-2.29/ && export CC=gcc-4.1 CXX=g++-4.1 && ./install

Thanx knudfl

my previous error is solved.but I execute tcl file..nam is not working..
I dot this error...please help

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
}"
invoked from within
"if {[string equal [tk windowingsystem] "classic"]
|| [string equal [tk windowingsystem] "aqua"]} {
bind Listbox <MouseWheel> {
%W yview scroll [expr {..."

# 14.

The usual : Please use a proof 'nam', preferable version 1.14.

Package, please see post # 4 here ..
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...04-a-842109/#4

Unpack, and : cd nam-1.14*/ && sudo cp nam /usr/local/bin/
... And : Better delete the corrupt nam in "nam-1.11/".
