Re: [Paparazzi-devel] Problem installing paparazzi on OS X

[Chris Robson]

Hi Steven

I think the time the problem existed in the past might have been me the last time I tried to solve it :/

I removed the paparazzi repository (I make the tentative assumption that this is all encompassed inside the paparazzi folder created in my home folder) before trying to install fresh again.  It's my current understanding that this isn't needed till the next step with the 'make' command.

Tonight, using the paparazzi tools installer, I tried the custom installation option and unticked all but one item.  I repeated this on another item at the other end of the list.  Both times the installer still failed at the same point.

The output of the command you asked for is:

/opt/paparazzi/lib/ocaml/stublibs

/opt/paparazzi/lib/ocaml

/opt/paparazzi/lib/ocaml/site-lib/stublibs

/opt/paparazzi/lib/ocaml/site-lib/stublibs

/opt/paparazzi/lib/ocaml/site-lib/stublibs

By Binary install do you mean via macports?  Or would this be a case of finding all the dependancies individually and installing them?  If by the latter I'm having a bit of trouble finding where it is documented.  

Thanks

Chris

Hello Chris,

I think this problem existed in the past, but unfortunately I have forgotten the reason why. Perhaps Eric or Bernard could shed some light.

In any case, did you try with the most recent binary installer?

I don't know very much about the install process to be honest, but could you post the output of the following:

$ cat /opt/paparazzi/lib/ocaml/ld.conf

In addition, do you already have a copy of the paparazzi git repo, or not yet?

Thanks,

I had the same frustration, in that I spent a year now looking how to fix incompatibilities. I just recently gave up and dual boot my osx with ubuntu. The download was 1hr, and the install is 2hr. I was done and got the airframe up and running on my bench.

I know that's not the result you wanted to hear, but...

FYI: I also just bought a Raspberry PI to attempt to run the base station part, instead of my osx machine... ok.. I just wanted one.

Subject: [Paparazzi-devel] Problem installing paparazzi on OS X

Hi Everyone,
I've had this problem for over a year now.   Just when I get some enthusiasm to get paparazzi going, I can't figure out how to get it to instal and it goes back to gathering dust.


Hardware:
Macbook 1.83GHz Intel Core Duo

OS:
OSX 10.6.8

Xcode version:
mmmacbook:~ user$ xcodebuild -version
Xcode 3.2.6
Component versions: DevToolsCore-1809.0; DevToolsSupport-1806.0
BuildVersion: 10M2518
mmmacbook:~ user$

(xcode build doesn't exist in by user/bin folder, but I got it to work in my home folder.  I'm not sure if that will make a difference.

Installation using the paparazzi tools installer proceeds as normal till it gets hung up, tantalisingly close to the end.  After this the installation failed window pops up.

Has anyone got any ideas?

I have tried all sorts to install it previously, macports etc but couldn't get it to work.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  For example, would it be possible that I have set something which prevents the installer from accessing the folders it wants to place the items, or could these folders already contain the items from when I've tried a previous installation with macports and it's getting confused?

Cheers
Chris
