Installtion Help

[Sandeep Rathi]

Hi folks ,

I download the gridlab-d as mentioned in documention http://gridlab-d.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Linux/Unix

It contains bunch of folders , i'm wondering which one is having simulator source files.

" analysis branch course data design tags taxonomy_fedders ticket tools trunk "

so i went to branch->3.2 and trying to install from it (let me know if it's right )

As mentioned in documentation i installed prerequesite and try to install grid-lab-d , run few commands

autoreconf -isf
./configure
make

I am getting error after make command saying that " Missing dependency : libxerces-c " but i already downloaded it and install.

Can anybody help with it.

Thanks

Hello Sandeep,

The instructions on that page need to be updated. Those had you pulling the source code from the SourceForge repository, which is over a year out of date. We've since migrated to GitHub. Please use the instructions noted at http://gridlab-d.shoutwiki.com/wiki/MinGW/Eclipse_Installation and see if that works better. In particular, you'll want to download the Git repository using:

git clone https://github.com/gridlab-d/gridlab-d.git LOCALFOLDERNAME

and then be sure to get the proper branch/feature - I'd recommend release/RC4.0 (or checkout the tag for 4.0). After that, following the instructions on the linked page (or standard compiling instructions) should get you better results.

We'll update the instructions you linked to point to the new ones, and remove the SourceForge aspect of them.
