make not "making"

[sick347]

I'll bet that my last problem I posted is due to the fact that I did not have a successful make.

Not sure why either.

What should I do to get this to make?

frank@wdshss:~/ZoneMinder-1.22.0/scripts> make
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
frank@wdshss:~/ZoneMinder-1.22.0/scripts>


thanks

Frank,

What was your ./configure command and the output? It has a number of components....

Here is my command only as an EXAMPLE:

./configure --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-ffmpeg=/home/src/ffmpeg-0.4.9-pre1 --with-lame=/home/src/lame-3.96.1/libmp3lame --with-webdir=/home/sites/Security.658Ridgecrest.com/web --with-cgidir=/home/sites/Security.658Ridgecrest.com/web --with-webuser=httpd --with-webgroup=httpd --with-libarch=lib --enable-debug=yes

-WAM

[sick347]

my ./configure line was this:

./configure --with-webdir=/srv/www/htdocs/ --with-cgidir=/srv/www/cgi-bin/ --with-webgroup=www --with-webuser=wwwrun ZM_DB_HOST=localhost ZM_DB_NAME=zm ZM_DB_USER=zm ZM_DB_PASS=zm --with-libarch=lib64

I don't recall any errors as such.

thanks
-frank

[wmoore]

humm..

I would re-run the configure command and capture and post the output. If you were error free, then maybe you have a permissions issue that prevented ./configure from writing the make file. More likely, I would think, is a failed ./configure.

A make distclean or a make clean, then a re-run of the ./configure command should be harmless if your want to re-create the output.

Your first post shows you in the "scripts" directory. Shouldn't you be up a level to run Make?

thanks

Yeah...it does show me there...I was pretty desperate, I was in every directory I could see that made sense....including the top level (/home/frank/zoneminder/)

thanks for checking me!

try this:

Follow prompts...

Then make clean and start over. Let us know is you get any further...

ok great got the CPAN stuff in.

I don't understand the 'make clean' command. Do I need to be in a certain dir to issue the command, because it does not seem to be in my PATH.

wdshss:/home/frank # make clean
make: *** No rule to make target `clean'. Stop.
wdshss:/home/frank #

I'm pretty new at this compile / install stuff and I have never used "make" so please forgive the ignorance...

[wmoore]

My bad...

If you haven't had a successful make, you won't be able to make clean...

Frankly, it may not really be necessary. If you have a previous compile out there, and then you make some chages and want to start over, make clean just cleans everything up and get you ready for a new run.

I do it out of habit, and to ensure that the change I am trying to affect doesen't get caught up with any halmarks from a previous compile.

For now, just skip it and re-run the ./configure command and see how things look.

Sorry about that.

Hey NO WORRIES!!!

I'm just happy you are lending a helping hand here to a total novice.

MANY THANKS!

so, I ran the ./config again and the output looks different...different in a good way I hope...

Hay, I am just a novice who has done this a few more times.... Dont sweat it.

Looks good

I think you are good to try a make, then a make install....

Obviously do the DB stuff inbetween, unless that it is done.

In time, you might want to go back and add some aditional features... I.E. ffmpeg, pcre, etc.

Give it a try and report back if ya can.

YES!!! it friggin worked! make did anyway...

It appears that I need to be root to do make install?

Do you have root access on this box?

Cuz your right, that make install looks pritty bad.
