No. The last thing configure prints is the "configure: error:" line shown below and no Makefile is generated. > > I'm not trying anything fancy with the configure command. > > > > Here is the end of the configure output: > > checking for ruby... ruby > > ls: > > /home/jdboyd/work/jmgr/build/msgLayer/qpid-M4//home/jdboyd/wor > > k/jmgr/src/msgLayer/qpid-M4/cpp/../specs/amqp.0-10-qpid-errata > > .xml: No such file or directory > > Missing xml file is a problem... It looks as though the path it's > looking in may be wrong. Are you cd'd to the qpid .../cpp directory? OK, I was running the configure script from a separate install directory. The qpid source is in /home/jdboyd/work/jmgr/src/msgLayer/qpid-M4/ while I would in /home/jdboyd/work/jmgr/build/msgLayer/qpid-M4/ typing this command line: /home/jdboyd/work/jmgr/src/msgLayer/qpid-M4/cpp/configure If I switch to the cpp directory in the source and type: ./configure the line complaining about the XML file goes away, but the complaint below about "Boost libraries could not be found" persists. > > checking boost/shared_ptr.hpp usability... yes > > checking boost/shared_ptr.hpp presence... yes > > checking for boost/shared_ptr.hpp... yes > > checking uuid/uuid.h usability... yes > > checking uuid/uuid.h presence... yes > > checking for uuid/uuid.h... yes > > checking for main in -lboost_filesystem... yes > > checking for main in -lboost_program_options... yes > > checking for main in -lboost_system... no > > checking for main in -lboost_filesystem-d... no > > checking for main in -lboost_program_options-d... no > > checking for main in -lboost_system-d... no > > configure: error: Boost libraries could not be found. > > > > I've also attached the config.log file. > > > > I've checked and I definitely don't have libboost_system-d or any > > libboost_system libraries on the system, which seems to be > > something new to newer versions of boost. > > > > Is the boost-1.32-support stuff outdated and not going to be > supported > > any further? > > I'm not sure of the official position on boost 1.32...

It would simplify things greatly if it would work. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Apache Qpid - AMQP Messaging Implementation Project: http://qpid.apache.org Use/Interact: mailto:users-subscr...@qpid.apache.org
