Re: [Xen-API] api-xen-lib build error



Matthias,

As far as I'm concerned, the only thing you have to do, to make it build on a 64-bit CentOS installation, is rebuild all ocaml-* packages, mentioned in the wiki. Â

I thought I'd also list my build env:
- CentOS 6, with the following ocaml related pkgs:

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.ÂÂ

I guess that's where I am stuck.

Matthias

HelloÂMatthias,

The error message suggest architecture mismatch, are you sure that you've installed 64-bit packages? 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thing, there's a wiki article on building XenAPI:Âhttp://wiki.xen.org/xenwiki/XCP_Building_InstructionsÂ-- it's a bit outdated but works for the most part.

Hi !

I am attempting to build xapi from scratch. ÂThus, I started with xen-api-libs, downloading the sources from github. ÂBefore 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 Âpa_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 Âtype-conv Âxmlm

Next, I copied those dirs to /usr/lib64/ocaml. ÂThis seems to have improved the situtation slightly as the type-conv module can now be found. ÂHowever, 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]: Leaving directory `/root/xen-api-libs/stdext'

Your help is much appreciated.
