I am trying to compile Magicka on a Pi 2. Got through these steps without error:



Ensure you have git, c compiler, libsqlite3-dev, libreadline-dev, libssl-dev, libssh-dev libncurses5-dev and gnu make

sudo apt-get install build-essential libsqlite3-dev libreadline-dev git libssl-dev libssh-dev libncurses5-dev

should work on debian and debian derivatives.

Clone the repo git clone https://github.com/MagickaBBS/MagickaBBS

However, I have not had luck with 'make www' or 'make'. make www fails immediately (sorry, the error has scrolled off), and a simple make runs about 5-10 minutes before failing with:

cd ../deps/cdk-5.0-20161210/ && ./configure
/bin/sh: 1: ./configure: Permission denied

That is followed by a recipe error (libcdk.a) 126 (multiple error lines summarized -- I am having to type this into another PC)
Makefile:30: recipe for target 'magicka' failed
make error 2

I checked and the bbs users has rwx access to the configure script. The user belongs to its own group as well as cdrom, sudo, video, games, and users.

I had success compiling on my 32-bit debian machine. That user has access to additional groups... tty, lp, and dialout. Don't have any idea if that matters. All of the file permissions match what is on the 32-bit machine, so I am not sure why permission would be denied.

make www would have failed if you don't have libmicrohttpd-dev installed.

cd ../deps/cdk-5.0-20161210/ && ./configure /bin/sh: 1: ./configure: Permission denied

This is a mystery. What happens if you go into deps/cdk-5.0-20161210 and
type ./configure manually?

Are you compiling with the same user that checked out the source? are you
able to run /bin/sh ?

If you want to get a log of everything, you should be able to do
something like this:

make > logfile.txt 2>&1

You wont see any output though as it is redirected to the log file. If
you want you could email me the log.

And it would probably help if you had my email... apamment@yandex.com

That sounds familiar. :)

I shall have to try that. I was afraid to at the time because I would not
know what step was next, if it should happen to work.

Yes, I am and, yes, I can. :)

I will try that but, before I do, there may be something important I forgot
to mention. Because the pi has limited disk space compared to my other machines, I was installing Magicka to an NFS share that is under my home directory. While the user has r/w/x to everything on the share, I wondered later if it being on a share might cause issues during a compile?

I wouldn't have thought it would be a problem, but as it's the only thing different to my raspberry pi setup, I suspect it is.

I'll do some research and see if any other projects have had issues
running configure scripts on NFS. Perhaps there is an option that needs
to be passed to mount or something.

Me to you, earlier this evening:

That actually was it. It is working now. :) I may try in future to move the installation to the NFS share but, for now, I guess it is fine running from a thumb drive. :)

Glad you got it figured out, though why it wasn't working on the NFS
share is a bit of a mystery.

Maybe. For reference, it is mounted in fstab using the following options:

rw,user,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,hard,intr

It is mounted to a directory under the user's home directory.

Thanks, I've opened an issue on github and will look into it soonish.

It's there if you think of anything you want to add to it, it will
probably be a few days before I get into it.

OK, thanks for the link! :) I should be able to test out an NFS compile again, once you think it is ready.
