INET Framework errors

[ChrisDent]

Hi,

I am new to OMNeT++ and C++ and to help me create the network
simulations I have downloaded, installed and imported the project of
the latest stable release of the INET Framework for OMNeT++ 4.2. I
have chosen the INET Framework in the hope that I can create a
switched network similar to this kind of topology -
http://web.chrissdent.co.uk/topology.jpg.

Unfortunately I am getting errors regarding many of the classes. The
example I would most like to use is the examples/ethernet/arptest
example but on running the example (using either the mingwenv.cmd
program or via the IDE using Run/OMNeT++ Simulation) I get the error
as below regarding the FlatNetworkConfigurator:

"Error in module (cCompoundModule) ARPTest (id=1) during network
setup: Class "FlatNetworkConfigurator" not found -- perhaps its code
was not linked in, or the class wasn't registered with
Register_Class(), or in the case of modules and channels, with
Define_Module()/Define_Channel()."

I have read a few forums relating to this issue but have not yet been
successful in resolving the issue. Please can you offer any advise on
this issue?

Thanks,
Chris

what version of windows are you running. Win 7? is it 32 or 64 bit.

I assume that INET compiled without any issues. Could you please check the size of libinet.dll in the 'src' dir?

It should be a pretty big DLL file (the debug version is around 32Mb)

Thank you for your response.

I am running Windows 7 64-bit. 

Also, the libnet.dll is 42 KB. Is this not right?

[Chris Dent]

Also, yes, no issues on building the inet project in OMNeT++ IDE.

Thanks, 

That seems to be a problem. libinet.dll should contain all code so normally it must be around 32Mb. It seems that on Win7 64-bit the link process seemingly succeed, but results in a wrong output file... There were other people suffering from this too. I suspect some kind of mis-configuration on these machines, but cannot identify the exact settings.

Unfortunately I cannot reproduce this on our own test machine so we have to continue with trial and error method.

Question for those who have this problem:

Do yo have both "Program Compatibility Assistance Service" and "Diagnostic Policy Service" running (in the Service control panel).

If not, could you try to enable them and rebuild the whole INET project and check if that fixes the problem...

I can compile and link the code in win7 64 without problems

Yeah, this problem does surface only on certain systems, but we were not able to pin down the exact cause, however this is very likely related to the fact the the MINGW binaries must be running in compatibility mode...

Rudolf

[Chris Dent]

I am unsure what the "Program Compatibility Assistance Service" and "Diagnostic Policy Service" are. Are these Windows programs?

In there a way to make the MINGW binaries run in compatibility mode?

Chris

[Chris Dent]

Alfonso - were there any variables you changed on your system to ensure that it worked?

Environment variables, for example?

Chris

[Chris Dent]

Found the "Program Compatibility Assistance Service" and "Diagnostic Policy Service" on my system and they are in 'started' status.

Hi Rudolph,

I set mingwenv.cmd to xp compatibility, but may be more with desparation
than logic. I was hoping what ever else kicked off would inherit the
behaviour.

You think setting certain other binaries should be set this way?

Since they are run from within mingwenv will it still be meaningful for
example to right click C:\omnetpp-4.2.1\mingw\bin\g++.exe and set xp
compatibility mode?

I don't quite have sufficient understanding to know if this would make
sense.

Regards,

Andrew

I had this same problem when I used OMNeT++ version 4.2.2, but when I tried installing inet in version 4.2.1, I could run the example properly so far.

Perhaps trying different version of OMNeT++ could "resolve" the problem.

[lukasz....@gmail.com]

I also tried to installing inet ver. 2.1.0 on OMNeT++ version 4.2.2  on Windows 7  32 bit ...  I have problem - after compiling INET  file  libinet.dll is around 42 KB ... 

Has anyone solved the problem ?  

[Rudolf Hornig]

This seems to be an issue with the bundled MINGW linker version. You may try 4.3rc1 as it contains newer MSYS and MINGW binaries. Or if you want to stick with omet 4.2 you may try to copy over the MSYS and MINGW directories from the 4.3rc1 distro.

I do appreciate your help.

Thank you Rudolf Hornig for take a look with my problem. I have installed OMNeT ver. 4.3rc1. Then I could installing  Inet 2.1.0 without problems... 

I think in few days will be available stable version but ver. 4.3rc1 is quite good and I haven't any problem using it. 

Regards,

Łukasz

your help will be thankfull.
