basic routing module fails during build

[antoninbas]

Are you using Ubuntu 14.04 and did run the install.sh script as per the README?
You may want to check that the Thrift headers were correctly installed on your system. Mine are under /usr/local/include/thrift/.

I wanted to run this on Fedora so I have created a similar install script for it:

# installation script for ubuntu 14.04
trap 'exit' ERR

It finished fine, but when I went to build the basic routing modules it failed. It looks like I don't even have the /usr/local/include/thrift. Any ideas ?

Thanks.

If you are sure that the installation went fine, you should:

1. find the header on your system: sudo find / -name 'TBinaryProtocol.h'
2. make sure it is in the preprocessor path: echo | cpp -Wp,-v

If you cannot find the header, then the installation went wrong. If the header is there but cpp does not look for it in the right place, it should be pretty easy to fix.

In my case, I get:

1. /usr/local/include/thrift/protocol/TBinaryProtocol.h

@antoninbas thanks for your help. it looks like I was trying to install packages without paying attention that their name might be different in Fedora. For example, libboost-dev vs. boost-devel, judy-devel vs. libjudy-dev.

So in that sense, my installation, although it looked like it finished fine, never did. So I think that's where the problem is.

Thanks for your help and time.

Cheers.
