Dear Fellas,

i am trying since 3 days to install ns2 along with olsr patch, but no success
ubuntu version 10.10
ns-allinone-2.34
and olsr patch 0.8.8 and even tried 0.2.3

when i make the ns2.34 after patching the olsr, i get the following error :

I./satellite -I./wpan -o trace/cmu-trace.o trace/cmu-trace.cc
trace/cmu-trace.cc:56: fatal error: olsr/OLSR_pkt.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
make: *** [trace/cmu-trace.o] Error 1
Ns make failed!
See http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/ns-problems.html for problems
root@ubuntu:/home/bhushan/ns-allinone-2.34#


Kindly help,

Welcome to LQ.

Should be something like this :

The "olsr line" in Makefile.in ...
olsr/OLSR.o olsr/OLSR_state.o olsr/OLSR_rtable.o olsr/OLSR_printer.o \
... is about "ns-allinone-2.34/ns-2.34/olsr/" from 'um-olsr-0.8.8.tgz'
http://sourceforge.net/projects/um-olsr/
I.e. : cd ns-allinone-2.34/ns-2.34/ && tar xvf um-olsr-0.8.8.tgz &&
ln -s um-olsr-0.8.8/ olsr
... Then you have ns-allinone-2.34/ns-2.34/olsr/OLSR_pkt.h etc. etc.

Also : Use the dedicated ns-2.34 patch : um-olsr-2.34_v0.8.8.patch
http://masimum.inf.um.es/fjrm/wp-upl...4_v0.8.8.patch
patch -p1 < um-olsr-2.34_v0.8.8.patch

.

what do you suggest

Ubuntu 10.10 , 32bits :
Better start from scratch with a new unpacked ns-allinone-2.34.tar.gz.
Please do not run the install ( or make ) as root :
Makes it difficult to use the application.
And : 'root' is for administrative tasks only !

cd ns-allinone-2.34/ns-2.34/ && tar xvf um-olsr-0.8.8.tgz &&
ln -s um-olsr-0.8.8/ olsr &&
patch -p1 < um-olsr-2.34_v0.8.8.patch && cd ../ &&
export CC=gcc41 CXX=g++41 && ./install : No errors.

Be aware that the export command is temporary :
gcc / g++ will reset to the default version (4.4.5),
when you exit the terminal.
The ns-2.34/Makefile must have these lines 36 - 37 :
CC = gcc41
CPP = g++41

Installing gcc41-compat / g++41-compat, post # 181 here

Am trying to patch OLSR in NS2. my OS is ubuntu. is there any difference between patching OLSR in windows to patching OLSR in ubuntu?

Post # 8, @Ramya Babu : Welcome to LQ.
