Topic: What is: platform-settings

[Daniel B. J.]

[root@linux01 jud-0.4]# make
Makefile:1: ../platform-settings: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target ../platform-settings'.  Stop.

Trying to install - Jabber User Directory

I do this:

1) http://download.jabber.org/dists/1.4/final/ and dw. jub-0.4.tar.gz
2) gzip -d jud-0.4.tar.gz
3) tar -xvf jud-0.4.tar (this will create a jud-0.4/ sub-directory)
3) cd jud-0.4/
4) make

But don't work!! what can be wrong?

Tried to remove the line witch including the platform-settings, then this errors came:

[root@linux01 include]# make
cc  -I../jabberd   -c -o jud.o jud.c
In file included from jud.h:31,
                 from jud.c:31:
jabberd.h:30:21: lib/lib.h: No such file or directory
jabberd.h:31:17: pth.h: No such file or directory
make: *** [jud.o] Error 1

Daniel,

You have obviously installed Jabber server from the rpm. Unfortunately this is missing a lot of the files, including platform-settings required to compile JUD or the transports.
I have been trying to compile the MSN transport and came across the same problem so I have tried to compile Jabber but with no success.

Hi! Jon!

Thanx for youre answer.. It is correctly that i have tried to install Jabber.

Is there anyway to get out og those problems ?
Can u compile Jabber without using the Rpm!

And a last quistion, can i uninstall the rpm ?? is there a uninstall function?
