zlib.h not found

[Sparsh Mittal]

Hello

 

The server on which I was running sniper has been recently rebuilt, so I am seeing this error:

 

zfstream.h:4:18: fatal error: zlib.h: No such file or directory

 

I have tried adding absolute path, but then some other file seems missing which is included by zlib.h

 

I tried to add -lz but it does not help.

 

I am trying to contact our IT support persons, but meanwhile, is there any workaround?

Thanks and Regards
Sparsh Mittal

Sparsh,

     Which OS and version are they using? You can get this info from a file in /etc, usually /etc/issue. We can then debug the problem. It sounds like they didn't install the development headers properly.

Sparsh,

You can try "sudo yum upgrade && sudo yum install -y zlib-devel" to install the zlib development header.

I do not have root privileges. This is a department server.

 

Thanks for your suggestion.

Would you please look into this matter. I need to complete a sniper-based work soon.

Sparsh,

You'll need to get the zlib development libraries installed on your system to be able to compile Sniper.

If you can't install them system-wide, you can compile them from source, and add the necessary -I and -L flags to CXXFLAGS and LD_FLAGS (in common/Makefile.common) to make sure the compiler finds it.

Regards,

Wim
