I am trying to install Ikiwiki version 2.1 from the source tarball.
|
|
|
|
It has all gone fairly smoothly until I try and run 'make'.
|
|
|
|
I.e. I have downloaded and unpacked ikiwiki_2.1.tar.gz and have run
|
|
|
|
perl Makefile.PL
|
|
|
|
... which has run OK.
|
|
|
|
|
|
However when I then run 'make' I get:-
|
|
|
|
LANG=C perl -I. -T ikiwiki.out doc html --templatedir=templates \
|
|
--underlaydir=basewiki --nousedirs\
|
|
--wikiname="ikiwiki" --verbose \
|
|
--exclude=/discussion --no-discussion --userdir=users \
|
|
--plugin=goodstuff \
|
|
--plugin=haiku --plugin=polygen --plugin=fortune
|
|
Failed to load plugin IkiWiki::Plugin::mdwn: IkiWiki version 2 required--this is only version 1.01 at IkiWiki/Plugin/mdwn.pm line 7.
|
|
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at IkiWiki/Plugin/mdwn.pm line 7.

Compilation failed in require at (eval 4) line 2.
|
|
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at (eval 4) line 2.
|
|
|
|
make: *** [extra_build] Error 1
|
|
|
|
How do I fix this? There may be a bit of old ikiwiki left behind because
|
|
I did once have an older version installed but I thought I had removed all
|
|
traces of it.

Well I have searched around and there really is nothing left that I can see.
|
|
|
|
I have removed *everything* found by 'find' and 'locate' that contains 'ikiwiki' except the tar file
|
|
and started from the beginning again and I see exactly the same error.
|
|
|
|
Is it that I maybe have a too old version of some of the Perl dependencies? The only mdwn.pm files
|
|
that I have are the two I have just extracted from the new tar file. There is *no* ./IkiWiki.pm file
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
so what/where is it loading to satisfy the ....... aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!
|
|
|
|
I wasn't noticing the case of the filename, I'd missed the upper case W and guess what 'find' shows me:-
|
|
|
|
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/IkiWiki.pm
|
|
|
|
Removing the above file has fixed my basic problem, now I'm getting lots of (non-fatal) errors
|
|
about "Can't locate Locale/gettext.pm", presumably that's a missing Perl module, I can probably
|
|
sort that out.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Errors when running 'make test'
|
|
|
|
OK, I've now got it to compile and install and presumably it's basically working. However there
|
|
are a few errors when I run 'make test'. Several errors have disappeared by installing more Perl
|
|
stuff (specifically XML::SAX)
|
|
|
|
> XML::SAX is a requirement of XML::Simple, which is a documented build
|
|
> requirement. (Only really needed if you'll be using subversion actually).
|
|
|
|
and one error disappeared when I did a 'make install', i.e. the 'make
|
|
test' has a test which requires IkiWiki to be installed first.
|
|
|
|
> Yes, that bug is already fixed in subversion for the next release
|
|
> --[[Joey]]
|
|
|
|
However I'm still getting the following error in 'make test':-
|
|
|
|

This is perl, v5.8.8 built for i486-linux

## Installation in a non-root enviroment
|
|
I had a pretty hellacious time installing Ikiwiki (largely due to problems
|
|
in Perl) and documented them in [[tips/SharedHosting]]. I'd like to get feedback on the doc and also know if I should file a few bugs to make the installation process a little friendlier to non-root folks. Thanks for the great app!
