I am have FPC v. 2.6.2 installed on linux/ubuntu server A. I am sure I did some change to zeos library in server A, but I cannot remember details. I'd like to have the same version of FPC installed on a new linux/ubuntu server B. I found that FPC v. 3.0.2 was already installed on server B. Using my poor skills in linux, I took the following steps: 1. deleted directory /usr/lib/fpc/3.0.2 of server B
That was not necessary. You can perfectly have 2 versions of FPC co-existing.
2. copied directory /usr/lib/fpc/2.6.2 of server A into server B (used scp) Now a few strange things happen: a. if I try to run fpc from - say - /usr/lib/cgi-bin , I get the message Error: ppcx64 can't be executed, error message: Failed to execute "ppcx64", error code: 127
Did you correct the symlink /usr/bin/ppcx64 ? it should point to /usr/lib/fpc/2.6.2/ppcx64
b. if I try to run fpc from /usr/lib/fpc/2.6.2, a lot of Zeos lib units are compiled EVERY TIME. This for sure was not happening before (see below). I did something silly, right ?
Ill-advised, perhaps.
Any help in order to fix the install ?
The above should help you to get things compiling again. About recompilation of zeos units; 2.6.2 may work differently to 3.0.2 regarding circular units which causes a recompile. Or the zeeos units in your search path are the old ones.
