Hi, It took me a long time to figure out how to get icc (7.0) to work with distcc (2.11.2), and it turned out to be a rather silly problem. I would get errors on some remote clients that looked like:
icc: error: unable to open 'iccSDFAgas' The actual problem is that icc likes to create some random little temp files in the directory in which the build is running (and although icc *claims* that it uses the TMP environment variable, it seemed to ignore it for these temp files). since the daemon is currently run in '/', icc is unable to create these temp files (depending on the permission of that dir on different boxes). it seems to me that this problem can be fixed in one of two ways (well, intel could fix their compiler...): 1. come up with various scripts that redirect to the actual intel compiler, and along the way change the current dir if we are in the '/' dir. this seems like too much work, for what seems to me to be a simple problem. 2. add on option to distccd for which dir to run the compiler in (or just use the TMPDIR). thanks, -james __ distcc mailing list http://distcc.samba.org/ To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/distcc
