Make fails

That means the build succeeded, but one of the unit tests failed. That particular test may well fail on operating systems other than the ones I have access to. Which OS are you using and what is the output of $ tests/hashbang.sh bin/vm fasl/bootp.fasl?

That's odd. Which distribution? How about the manual run output? Does this also happen in trunk?

[alem0lars]

Gentoo.

If I run it manually I get:

echo: resource temporary unavailable 

[aoh]

How about currently in trunk.

[alem0lars]

I'm getting the same error.

If I try to manually run the failing test:

# tests/run all bin/vm fasl/bootp.fasl

I get:

Running tests/ against bin/vm fasl/bootp.fasl: o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o oERROR: tests/hashbang.sh

Can you check the script that the test generates and tries to run from owl-lisp/tmp. Does it work? What's in it.

[alem0lars]

It just returns 1 (i.e. error). It doesn't print anything.

The script is: ./tmp/script-19147 and it contains:

#!/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/owl-lisp-0.1.7/work/owl-lisp/bin/vm /var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/owl-lisp-0.1.7/work/owl-lisp/fasl/bootp.fasl
(print "ohai")

[alem0lars]

I don't know if this means something but running:

# ./bin/vm fasl/bootp.fasl '(print "ohai")'

Outputs:

Could not find any of ((print "ohai") fasl/(print "ohai")) for loading.

And returns 1

Ok, I was able to reproduce the bug. Turns out the kernel sets a fairly small limit for maximum hashbang line lengths, so the test failed even though there was nothing wrong in the build. The test now fakes success if the length would be over 127. Let me know it the issue persists.

If you want to run an expression from command line, you need to use ol -e (print "ohai"). Otherwise owl will try to load a file. ol --help shows the options.

Thanks for the bug!

[alem0lars]

Can you release a new version for the bugfix? I'm creating an ebuild (gentoo package) for owl-lisp and I need to use a release.

Thanks :)

[aoh]

Done :)

[alem0lars]

It works correctly.

Thanks your support has been awesome! :)

btw, the ebuilds are available here (my personal repository):

• radamsa
• owl-lisp

hopefully in the future they will be included in the gentoo official repository if they'll find a maintainer.
