668.0. "Can t build on my workstation" by SMURF::FILTER (Automatic Posting Software - mail to flume::puck) Mon Mar 28 1994 12:30

Subj: 	Can't build on my workstation
I have 2 problems: 	

1) I usually build kernels on wasted, but find that the v13bsupportos.nightly
	and v20supportos.nightly backing trees are not mounted. I've
	used odemount but it fails. Is there a reason why these pools
	are not mounted on wasted?

2) So I tried building a kernel from the v13b support pool on my workstation.
	Although I know I've built kernels on my workstation in the past,
	I get the following error when I do a $ build:
$ build
relative path: ./kernel.
make: illegal option -- c
usage: make [-eiknqrst] [-D variable] [-d flags] [-f makefile ]
        [-I directory] [-j max_jobs] [variable=value]

also when I do a kinit:

norton.zk3.dec.com> kinit $PRINCIPAL
MIT Project Athena (norton.zk3.dec.com)
Kerberos Initialization for "Carol_Sheridan"
kinit: Can't send request (send_to_kdc)


I've checked my paths on both machines and they seem to be the same.

Do you have any ideas??

Thanks,

Carol

(Note I've forwarded #1 to admin to take care of.)

Carol, the invalid switch message from make is a result of picking up
the wrong make.  Your path is getting /usr/sde tools before the backingtree
tools, via your .cshrc or .kshrc.   There's an OSF 1.2 make in there which
you don't want (some projects use this); you want the make in the backingtree's
hostbin directory.

Ode workon defines some env vars (including PATH), and then opens a new
csh or ksh for you, which could override path.  Make sure if you add 
/usr/sde to $path, you add it at the end and not the front on .cshrc.

'which make' should return
/usr/sde/osf1/build/agoshw.bl7/tools/alpha/cc/usr/bin/make
when backed by v13bsupportos.nightly.

Oh!  also make sure agoshw.bl7 is mounted - this backs support.
