HI folks, having a torrid time trying to get geoDjango running on Ubuntu 8.10. Not bing an expert on Ubuntu doesn't help when the manual says 'If GEOS is not in the usual directory', add to paths. Hilarious stuff when you cannot find it anywhere 'in the usual places'. Manual writers please take note.
Okay, beef over. I have used the wget method to get the latest version which is 3.10rc2. the ./confiure runs like a train and I cannot see any major issues other than this: Swig: false Python: false Ruby: false rh...@myserver:~/geos-3.1.0rc2$ Might have thoughtthe python might have been true. NP. Python 2.5.2 is running fine. I then use the make instruction and all is okay until near the end when the following error messages appear: Making all in source make[1]: Entering directory `/home/rhoel/geos-3.1.0rc2/source' Making all in algorithm make[2]: Entering directory `/home/rhoel/geos-3.1.0rc2/source/ algorithm' Making all in locate make[3]: Entering directory `/home/rhoel/geos-3.1.0rc2/source/ algorithm/locate' make[4]: Entering directory `/home/rhoel/geos-3.1.0rc2/source/ algorithm/locate' source='IndexedPointInAreaLocator.cpp' object='IndexedPointInAreaLocator.lo' libtool=yes \ DEPDIR=.deps depmode=none /bin/bash ../../../depcomp \ /bin/bash ../../../libtool --tag=CXX --mode=compile g++ - DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../../../source/headers -I../../../source/headers/ geos -I../../../source/headers -DGEOS_INLINE -pedantic -Wall - ansi -Wno-long-long -c -o IndexedPointInAreaLocator.lo IndexedPointInAreaLocator.cpp libtool: ignoring unknown tag CXX g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../../../source/headers -I../../../source/ headers/geos -I../../../source/headers -DGEOS_INLINE -pedantic -Wall - ansi -Wno-long-long -c IndexedPointInAreaLocator.cpp -fPIC -DPIC - o .libs/IndexedPointInAreaLocator.o ../../../libtool: line 1281: g++: command not found make[4]: *** [IndexedPointInAreaLocator.lo] Error 1 make[4]: Leaving directory `/home/rhoel/geos-3.1.0rc2/source/algorithm/ locate' make[3]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/rhoel/geos-3.1.0rc2/source/algorithm/ locate' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/rhoel/geos-3.1.0rc2/source/ algorithm' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/rhoel/geos-3.1.0rc2/source' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 No idea if this is an okay compile or not. I have precoded to the sudo make install but that generates errors too. Needless to say the django.contrib.gis.tests generates a ImportError, GEOS not found. I cannot find a geos-c on the system Any advice how to get the compile and install to work? Got to the stage of hurling the server off the parapets discus style.
