Hello, I'm having trouble with the last installation step of flex (so close). The error messages are included below. I suspect the problem is that the autogen script tries to install something (libtoolize? autoreconf?) into the user directory, but I am working on a cluster computer that requires me to use a project file (/project/bee-genomics/ashley.rohde), which is where all of the supporting programs are installed. I can't see a place in the script to change this destination and I don't know what to do. I am pretty new to working from a command line and this is the first time I've had to compile a program. Any help anyone could provide is greatly appreciated. Thanks very much. Cheers, Ashley Rohde Error message: make[2]: Entering directory `/project/bee-genomics/ashley.rohde/autoconf-2.71' make[2]: Warning: File `Makefile' has modification time 47 s in the future /usr/bin/mkdir -p '/user/share/autoconf/bin' /usr/bin/mkdir: cannot create directory '/user': Permission denied make[2]: *** [install-binSCRIPTS] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/project/bee-genomics/ashley.rohde/autoconf-2.71' make[1]: *** [install-am] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/project/bee-genomics/ashley.rohde/autoconf-2.71' make: *** [install] Error 2 |
