compiling mongo-client on OS X Maveriks

[Freddy Martinez Garcia]

hi guys

i’m a new mac user, and i coming from linux where i had compiled the mongo c++ driver a thousand times…. i had download the c++ driver from https://github.com/algernon/libmongo-client.git

after that i had installed automaker package to have the autoconf command

i had read the http://www.mongodb.org/about/tutorial/build-mongodb-on-os-x/

i run autoconf -i, and after that… i run ./configure and i have the following error….

reddys-MacBook-Pro:libmongo-client freddy$ ./configure --prefix=/Users/freddy/Trabajo/installs/libs/mongo-cxx/libmongo-client/build/
./configure: line 2107: syntax error near unexpected token `1.9'
./configure: line 2107: `AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(1.9 tar-ustar foreign no-dist-gzip dist-xz subdir-objects)’

someone know about it ?

thanks for help me

best regards

Hi Freddy,

The Github repo you've linked to is an "alternative" C driver (libmongo-client), and the instructions you are trying to follow seem to be a mix of building the MongoDB server and libmongo-client.

As at MongoDB 2.6, the officially supported C++ driver has moved from the main "mongo" repository to a separate "mongo-cxx" repository:

 http://blog.mongodb.org/post/78478565493/upcoming-changes-to-the-mongodb-cpp-driver

 https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-cxx-driver

Some of the documentation is still being updated, however there is a tutorial that should help:
 http://docs.mongodb.org/ecosystem/tutorial/download-and-compile-cpp-driver/

i run autoconf -i, and after that… i run ./configure and i have the following error….

Per the C++ driver tutorial, you should be using scons to build the official driver. The configure/autoconf instructions are for the alternative C driver (libmongo-client).

If you're still having troubles building the official C++ driver, let us know.

Thanks,

Stephen

Hi Stephen and thanks for your answer

I had read your message and I had download the c++ driver from a new repository on GitHub

when I run scons, I have the following error:

scons: *** No SConstruct file found.

File "/usr/local/Cellar/scons/2.3.1/libexec/scons-local/SCons/Script/Main.py", line 916, in _main

what is the problem now ??

regards and thanks

Sorry for my last post Stephen... I was making a mistake !!!! and I didn't see... well.. now I have another problem...

I had installed the boost with macport

sudo port install boost

the boost version installed was 1.55, and when I run scons to compile my mongo driver.... I have the following output

Freddys-MacBook-Pro:mongo-cxx-driver freddy$ scons

scons: *** [build/darwin/normal/arrayExample] Error 1

scons: building terminated because of errors.

i was looking into /opt/local/lib and I have the boost libraries, but I don't have libboost_thread.a file, I have lib boost_thread-mt.a file.

another suggestion please ?

Hi Freddy -

You haven't said what version/branch of the driver sources you are using, but I think it probably does not matter. The following should work for almost any branch. Can you please try adding --extrapath=/opt/local to your scons invocation? That directory is not searched automatically, so you need to explicitly tell the build system to search there. I'm a little puzzled actually about why it is finding boost/version.hpp without that actually.

Thanks,
Andrew
