Warning: /y/usr/etc/pcc.conf: Specified directory does not exist: “./” in unknown on line 0

Warning: /y/usr/etc/pcc.conf: Specified directory does not exist: “/usr/local/lib/” in unknown on line 0

Anybody help me, please?
Thanks all. I very like this topic.

I got the ‘/y/usr/etc/pcc.conf not found’ error too.
Without really working out what Roadsend is doing, this seems to be due to assumptions about the location of standard directories that aren’t true in my case (Ubuntu 9.04). It’s nothing to do with LD_LIBRARY_PATH not being set.

First, /y is a symlink to /, so /y/usr/etc/pcc.conf is the same file as /usr/etc/pcc.conf. Or it would be if it existed. It’s actually installed to /usr/local/etc/pcc.conf

To fix this, create the dir and symlink to the file:
cd /usr
sudo mkdir etc
cd etc
sudo ln -s /usr/local/etc/pcc.conf pcc.conf

This will make pcc.conf visible to the program.

Then the next error shows up: it can’t find libphp-u_gtk3.0c.so. In my Ubuntu 9.04, it and other libraries are in /usr/local/lib.

To fix this we must edit pcc.conf
sudo gedit /usr/local/etc/pcc.conf

in pcc.conf, under the line
(library “./” “/y/usr/lib”)
add these lines

;ADDED because that’s where libphp and other libraries are
(library “./” “/usr/local/lib/”)

The next error I got was because I don’t have php-gtk installed. You may already have it, or want to install it, but I simply removed ‘ php-gtk’ from the two lines which contain it. Recommend you save the old line versions to comments in case you need them and forget what you did.

This has got me to the ‘hello world’ stage. I’ll report on further issues as they come up.

FYI I had the same error as Tom:
>>> Config file /y/usr/etc/pcc.conf not found.
Error: problem running command ‘bigloo’, exit status 1

I had added export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib to the profile, but I think it might require you to log out & back in - I didn’t do this as I have lots open, but you can just type the same command into the terminal and it works fine:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib

Decided to play around with these as compiling myself was proving more arduous than i had the patience for… but when I try to compile the test it can’t find “libphp-u_gtk3.0c.so”

@Antony: Try using “sudo dpkg --install the_file.deb”.

I’m having problems installing. Firstly - double clicked on the packages and they said they werent valid Archives.

Now trying sudo -i dkpg or whatever it is and its asking for a password?

TIA

Confirmed, it’s not amd64 compatible. I’ll compile an amd64 version when I get more time. The compile needs things like bigloo that aren’t in the current Lenny repository.

Apparently this is not amd64 compatible installation?
Seems it’s baring on library something.

@Tom: Yes, we do. See http://www.compdigitec.com/forums/ for free support.

By the way, I think that your error is caused by you not installing bigloo-compdigitec-unoffical, because the error suggests that Bigloo 3.0c is not installed.
