Linux Demo Startup problems

[Enrico Zschemisch]

Hi,

I tried to install the SVN version and ran into several problems
meanwhile. I fixed most of them by hand (e.g. hardcoded libraries
name, paths, etc.) and I just want to get feedback on some other
problems. When installing I get:

10-22 12:59 PythonOgre.BuildModule DEBUG running install
running build
running build_py
package init file 'packages_2.5/ogre/sound/ogreoggsound/__init__.py'
not found (or not a regular file)

10-22 12:59 PythonOgre.BuildModule DEBUG error: package directory
'packages_2.5/ogre/physics/ogrenewt2' does not exist

Okay, so this directory does not exist. After deleting this entry and
several others from setup.py I can finally install the packages.
Unfortunately, starting any demos exits with:
python Demo_Basic.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "Demo_Basic.py", line 19, in <module>
import ogre.renderer.OGRE as ogre
File "/home/enrico/po/root/usr//lib/python2.5/site-packages/ogre/
renderer/OGRE/__init__.py", line 10, in <module>
from _ogre_ import *
ImportError: /home/enrico/po/root/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/ogre/
renderer/OGRE/_ogre_.so: undefined symbol:
_ZN4Ogre20ResourceGroupManager39_notifyWorldGeometryPrepareStageStartedERKSs

So what can I do now to start the demos?

Thanks,
Enrico

Sorry about the missing package directory -- I'm only using Python 2.6 and didn't add this to the 2.5 area

The missing symbol error possibly means you are getting the wrong ogre library -- ie it compiled OK which means this function existed in the library you compiled against however it might be loading (at run time) and older or just different ogre .so

Hi,

are there any plans to support Ogre 1.7 (svn trunk)?
Why are the build scripts still using Ogre 1.6.1 and not 1.6.4?

Mhm, okay. I will check later at home.

I got another error on a Red Hat 5 machine when generating Ogre wrapper
code:

SVN trunk is already supported so if you want to build against that it should work -- bear in mind it's a moving target and I haven't built against it for a couple of weeks (while I've been tiding up the 1.6.4 for Windows)

And as mentioned previously I do most of my work on a Windows machine so if you want to check that 1.6.4 works OK on Linux (it should) and send through a patch that would be great.. I intentionally don't touch the Linux or Mac configurations until I get a chance to do an entire build -- rather have things using older libraries and 'working' than braking it completely..

ah, okay. Then I dont understand why you require boost 1.40 when it does
not build with the current build script...

I will come back with a patch later when I have made a complete build...
