error when running examples

[Fayez AlFayez]

Hello there

When I tried to run './waf --run progname'  or " ./waf --run non-existent-program-name. "

Can anybody help me out.

Thank you

./waf --run non-existent-program-name.

Hi Fayez,

In order to run a program/script in NS-3 you have to call it by its name.

So for example when you call

./waf --run progname 

The progname must exist within your NS-3 project.

Similar with the non-existent-program-name

So, if you don't have somewhere in your project a file/script with the name progname.cc (usually we keep script files in /scratch folder), then you can't call it.

The output you got from waf is the complete list of all the programs you have compiled, thus can run, in NS3

Hi,
the program should be there in the scratch  folder.

go to the ns-3.15 by cd Desktop/.../ns-3.15 from the terminal and then

./waf

after this run the program by

./waf --run <your-program>

[srinivas poram]

Hi,

Copy any example program for ex: first.cc present in the folder "tutorial" located at ns-allinone-3.15/ns-3.15/examples. copy this program to 'scratch'  folder present in ns-allinone-3.15/ns-3.15.

 then from the command prompt go to location by typing cd Desktop/ns-allinone-3.15/ns-3.15 (in my case the folder ns-allinone-3.15 is at Desktop), then type ./waf

and the ./waf  --run <program-name>

Thanks

Srinivas

Hi Fayez,
Assuming that your installation was all done properly, go to your dir ns-3-allinone/ns-3.14/examples/tutorial and then copy the first.cc. Then paste it to ns-3-allinone/ns-3.14/scratch directory. After that from the ns-3-allinone/ns-3.14/ directory, run the command ./waf --run scratch/yourprogname and hit enter. Make sure u dont put the .cc in yourprogname while running. Also substitute the correct version in the above examples ;) Hope this helps!!!
