Hello,
I did a fresh checkout of the current branch, and tried to build it. After having compiled and installed buildtools, 'make install' of MonetDB gives the following error:
[andorea:/ufs/zhang/current/MonetDB/build-debug] $ make install Makefile:860: ../conf/*.mk: No such file or directory make: *** No rule to make target `../conf/*.mk'. Stop.
I have seen this error before, but I can't rememeber how I solved it. Does someone have an idea?
Yes, do a proper clean build. It looks like perhaps you used the stable branch buildtools for a development branch build.
Thanks Sjoerd! Your explanation gives me an idea. The build is clean, but the shell isn't. The shell has been used for stable branch, so some of the env. variables have been set. Using a clean shell helps. Jennie
A stable branch autogen generates these lines in a Makefile.am: include $(MONETDB_CONFDIR)/*.mk include $(top_builddir)/*.mk
whereas a development branch autogen generates these lines: if HAVE_BUILDTOOLS include $(BUILDTOOLS_CONFDIR)/rules.mk endif if HAVE_EXTRA_MK include $(top_builddir)/extra.mk endif include $(top_builddir)/rpm.mk
As you can see, in the latter there is no *.mk whereas in the former there is.
