Hi Gustaf,

I'd like to test NaviServer + PG 9.2 + OpenACS Head but I'm not sure how to compile tdom and libthread that usually take a --with-aolserver argument.

Should I simply omit that argument? And what about xotcl, normally built with 'make install-aol'?

Thanks in advance,

Claudio

the tdom module is completely in and for tcl now,,,

  • so, untar it
  • cd in there,
  • cd to unix, then...
  • CC=compilerYouBuiltTCLWith ../configure --enable-threads --disable-tdomalloc --prefix=/path/to/tcl/install --with-tcl=/path/to/tcl/install/lib

    note that compilerYouBuiltTCLWith should really be the compiler you're building everything with, and so if you built without any CC= in the configure step you can leave it out of everything else, and

    /path/to/tcl/install would be the value of --prefix= when you ran the tcl ./configure.

the --prefix will install tdom so it's a sibling of the other tcl modules.

even more...

xotcl is also in and for tcl; soemthing happened when aolserver4 cane out,,, it allowed regularly built tcl modules to be included by aolserver without special/weird actions or syntaxes for doing it. the consequence of that is nothing needs to be --with-aolserver any more.

./configure --with-tcl=/path/to/tcl/install/lib --prefix=/path/to/tcl/install --enable-threads --without-aolserver3

which will also make the xotcl module, when installed, a sibling of the other tcl modules.

Use --prefix=/usr/local/ns for everything, that keeps your aolserver installation untouched; see below. As pg driver, use nsdbpg from bitbucket (http://bitbucket.org/naviserver/)

Concerning XOTcl: i would recommend to use XOTcl 2.*, https://next-scripting.org/; a configure --with-tcl=/usr/local/ns/lib/ should again be sufficient, no "make install-aol" needed. Same is true for for XOTcl 1.6.*, but i have not tested this for a while. Don't install in the same tree xotcl 1.* and xotcl 2.*, since the the 2.* versions are still in beta, and a "plain package require" prefers the non-beta over the beta version.

all the best

The installation went well.

Thank you very much for the suggestions.
