Sergei, thanx for the OCAMLPATH hint. BTW, I've installed the ocaml pkg via yum on a CentOS 6/64bit system assuming that the "right" pieces would be pulled down automatically.
I've tried building xen-api using the instruction that you've referred too. I have tried it on CentOS 6 / 64bit and it did not work. The page provides info about how to build it under CentOS 5.5 / 32bit. And mentions toward the end that with the help of "mock" xen-api could be build on different systems. It then continues to say that info about mock will be provided later on. I guess that's where I am stuck.

By the way, instead of copying those files, you could've altered OCAMLPATH: $ export OCAMLPATH=/usr/lib64/ocaml:$OCAMLPATH And one more thing, there's a wiki article on building XenAPI: http://wiki.xen.org/xenwiki/XCP_Building_Instructions -- it's a bit outdated but works for the most part. --Sergei On Thu, Jul 14, 2011 at 9:47 AM, Matthias Blankenhaus <[email protected]> wrote: Hi ! I am attempting to build xapi from scratch. Thus, I started with xen-api-libs, downloading the sources from github. Before starting my build I installed the following packges: # yum install ocaml ocaml-findlib ocaml-getopt ocaml-type-conv ocaml-xmlm omake ocaml-xmlm-devel I then got the following build error: make -C stdext ocamlfind: Package `type-conv' not found make[1]: Entering directory `/root/xen-api-libs/stdext' ocamlc -g -pp 'camlp4o -I ../rpc-light -I pa_type_conv.cmo pa_rpc.cma' -I ../jsonrpc -I ../rpc-light -c -o fe.cmo fe.ml Camlp4: Uncaught exception: DynLoader.Error ("pa_rpc.cma", "file not found in path") File "fe.ml", line 1, characters 0-1: I realized that some of the caml pkgs were placed under /usr/lib/ocaml instead of /usr/lib64/ocaml: # ls /usr/lib/ocaml/ getopt type-conv xmlm Next, I copied those dirs to /usr/lib64/ocaml. This seems to have improved the situtation slightly as the type-conv module can now be found. However, I now receive the following error: make[1]: Entering directory `/root/xen-api-libs/stdext' ocamlc -g -pp 'camlp4o -I ../rpc-light -I /usr/lib64/ocaml/type-conv pa_type_conv.cmo pa_rpc.cma' -I ../jsonrpc -I ../rpc-light -c -o fe.cmo fe.ml Camlp4: Uncaught exception: DynLoader.Error ("/usr/lib64/ocaml/type-conv/pa_type_conv.cmo", "/usr/lib64/ocaml/type-conv/pa_type_conv.cmo is not a bytecode object file") File "fe.ml", line 1, characters 0-1: Error: Preprocessor error make[1]: *** [fe.cmo] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/xen-api-libs/stdext' make: *** [all] Error 2 Your help is much appreciated.
