Graphlab compiling error

[Jingwei Shen]

Hi guys, 

I am a starter for graph lab. While compiling after I downloaded graph lab, I met following problems.

When I run " make -j4 " under  " graphlab/release/toolkits/collaborative filtering", I meet these error reports : 

make[3]: *** [heap-checker_unittest] Error 1

make[2]: *** [../deps/tcmalloc/src/libtcmalloc-stamp/libtcmalloc-build] Error 2

make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/libtcmalloc.dir/all] Error 2

make: *** [all] Error 2

Hi Jingwei,

The error message you sent is not complete, namely we see the error but not the output which says what caused it.

It seems that tcmalloc compilation failed. Please send us the full error (and compile without the -j 4 that way the message will be clearer).

One workaround is to disable tcmalloc: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/graphlab-kdd/DJ8YSyHexYE/qSSewta9z94J

But better send us the full compilation output first.

Best,

Hi Danny,

Thank you very much. 

Attached is the output file for my error - all the output after I type "make".

Thank you again. 

Best,

Jingwei

Hi Jingwei, 

Did you try to disable tcmalloc and compile as instructed?

If there are no additional errors than the problem is in tcmalloc. If there are additional compilation errors than probably the problem is in your machine configuration.

Thanks

Hi Danny,

I am afraid that the same problem occurs after I tried the instructions.

By the way, make sure I have done the right things : the CMakeList.txt is under the root directory : /graphlab . I need comment 2 lines in total :

# add_definitions(-DHAS_TCMALLOC)   # tcmalloc.

Attached is the error output after I tried the instructions.

Thanks

It seems you did not "./configure" after changing the CMakeLists.txt file since the step should not be called.

Hi Danny, 

Thank you  very much.  

The problem is fixed.  However I met another one.   As shown below, it doesn't move any further when "building als.app.o". Is is caused by lack of memory?

I checked before I ran "make", and my laptop had about 1.7GB memory free. Is it enough?

[  8%] Built target zookeeper

[ 16%] Built target libjson

[ 24%] Built target libbz2

[ 32%] Built target boost

[ 38%] Built target libtcmalloc

[ 44%] Built target libevent

[ 53%] Built target hadoop

[ 91%] Built target graphlab

[ 97%] Built target eigen

[ 97%] Building CXX object toolkits/collaborative_filtering/CMakeFiles/als.dir/als.cpp.o

Thank you very much.

I guess you are running out of memory. Try to compile with the "-j " flag. 

If this does not help you will need to switch to a machine with more memory...
