[Henry Ip [LIB] <lb...@in...>]

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am interested for the infomap project and I would like to launched the =
demo.
However, I have difficulty when I am installing it.
like checking whether we are cross compiling... no,checking for stdint.h...=
 no etc.
How can I solve these kind of problem and can successfully install the =

Also, how can I associate the web server to the software, I cannot find it =

Hi Henry,

    I'm glad to hear that you got the software to build and work.

    It looks to me from the output file you attach that the
infomap-install command is actually working; I think you don't need
the files it reports as missing.  After running infomap-install, can
you run "associate" on the installed corpus in the manner described by
the documentation?  If so, don't worry about the missing files.  If
not, write back again and I'll try to help you solve the problem.  A
more detailed explanation of what I think is going on appears below.

    Except for the files number2name.dir and number2name.pag, all of
the files that are missing are "something.db".  Probably you have
corresponding files something.dir and something.pag for each of these.
 Although I'm not certain, my guess is that some DBM implementations
use two files, a .dir file and a .pag file, to represent a database,
while others use a single .db file.  So you need *either* a .dir file
and a .pag file for a given database, or a .db file, but not both.

    As for number2name.*, you only need these files for a multi-file
corpus.  If the corpus you're processing consists of a single file,
none of the number2name files are necessary, and they will not be
generated.

    This is clearly a bug in the infomap-install program, in that the
output it generates is misleading (it makes it look like something is
wrong, since files are "missing", when in fact it doesn't need those
files).  I have to admit that the infomap-install script was something
of an afterthought, added during the packaging.  All it does it copy
files from one directory to another... you can easily accomplish the
same thing by hand or with a script of your own.


                 Hope that helps,

                          Scott

Dear Henry,

I hope we can help with some of these things, though it sounds as  
though it will need some work.

Is this the output from running "./configure"? I would expect headers  
like "stdint.h" to come with gcc (I might be wrong). Did your  
configure script find the gcc compiler successfully?

It would help if you were to send the whole output from "./configure"  
appended if you reply to this message.

We recently added the Perl/CGI tools that you can use to set up a web  
interface. However, you need to check them out from the CVS  
repository, they're not part of the standard distribution, because  
they aren't very portable at all yet - you'll have to figure out  
pathnames, etc. The first time we added these people were having  
trouble getting them from CVS, though I think that was to do with the  
SourceForge CVS upgrade since it seems to have been working since.

The Infomap software compiles under Windows using Cygwin (this has  
generally worked pretty reliably). There is a Windows front end that  
another contributor on the list made and kindly shared with other  
users - I'll try and find it in the archive at some point though I  
have to run now ;-)

Best wishes,
Dominic
