thx in advance

The latest version is 'ns-3.7.1' (see http://www.nsnam.org/download.html ).

Why not try it first ?

Anyway, if you follow build instructions and something doesn't build, it's a bug, so file the bug report.

Requirements : # yum install \
libX11-devel libXext-devel libXau-devel libXmu-devel gcc-c++

And the tk-8.4-lastevent.patch for nam to work.
Copy the patch to tk-8.4.24/ and apply with :
patch -p0 < tk-8.4-lastevent.patch

cd ns-allinone-2.31/ && ./install
.. and no errors on Fedora 12.

Post # 2 @Sergei Steshenko : ns3 is not ns2.

' ns3 ' is a completely different beast.

The latest ns2 is ns-2.34 / ns-allinone-2.34,
but there are a lot of special applications / patches
tied to / tailored for some of the older versions.
Therefore all the questions here at LQ for
ns-2.26 , ns-2.27 , ns-2.31 , etc.
.....

Thanks for the clarification.

Still, the OP's problem is a bug in build mechanism.

# 5: No, there are no bugs, except for the 'tk' one.

(And yes, tcl/tk never did a check for all x11 headers. On a Linux with
separate packages for Xext, Xmu, Xau, make will fail, when 'devel'
packages for those are missing.)

NS-2.3x works for me with no errors every time.
Suggest : try it on Suse, please see post # 2 here
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...suse-797965/#2

I would like to install the crcn.zip patch for ns2 for my project. However, the instruction in the website says that it can be useful only for version 2.31, whereas I have installed ns2.34.

My questions are,
1. Should I delete version 2.34 for using version 2.31 or can I have both installed in my ubuntu enabled laptop?
2. Is there any other way to install crcn.zip in version 2.34?

Post # 7, @brittoajay : Welcome to LQ.
CRCN http://stuweb.ee.mtu.edu/~ljialian/installation.htm

You can have as many versions of ns-allinone-2.xx as you want,
installed at the same time.
Just don't add any of them to your PATH or LD_LIBRARY_PATH :
Adding a PATH*** is not required since ns-2.26. ( Usually.)

Thank you knudfl....

I wish to use only one ns2 version suitable for Cognitive Radio Networks implementation. Hence I thought that it would be best to completely delete the 2.34 and use 2.31.
However as per your suggestion, can you provide me steps to open ns2.31 and ns2.34 separately, when needed? Without providing path to ns2.31, how'll I use it? (I'm very much a newbie for NS2 implementations)

# 9.

cd ns-allinone-2.34/nam-1.14/ && make install && exit && exit
( One file, the binary 'nam' is copied to /usr/local/bin/ ).
Nam is a separate application, one nam will work for all ns-2.xx.

cd /ns-allinone-2.31/ns-2.31/ && make install
The binary 'ns' (and a man page, ns.1) is copied to /usr/local/.

Nam and ns are statically compiled : With tcl tk otcl tclcl compiled
into the binaries. No path* required. Nam and ns depends on system files
in /lib:/usr/lib/ only, like libc6*, libx11*, etc.

All the text about setting a PATH*, (adding lines to .bashrc)
is just a 12? year old text for ancient requirements. AFAIK.

Post # 11, @ irphan : Welcome to LQ.

Please do not double post : Not allowed !

Nam : Use a binary nam like nam-1.14.i586.tar.gz : Unpack, and
sudo cp nam /usr/local/bin/

It worked
now please guide me I need to reproduce the SARA
http://cnm.tagus.inesc-id.pt/softwar...algorithm-sara
I had tried many times with Ns-2.34 and other version but It didn't worked so now I am trying to install it on ns-2.31

I had did this installation in VMWARE so if required I can share my virtual machine as well
Please guide me as i need to implement 2 algorithums out which one is SARA and other could be some FUZZY based
