Hi all,

are year which I wait for amule on 64bit. I have used slamd64 aprox. up to yesterday. Now I use slackware64 13, but the result is the same:

is impossible to run amule on it! With slam64, sometime, i have succesfully compiled and installed(with all dependencies; wx, libmspack, etc)
and launched aMule2.x, but after few-few seconds it crashed.

With slackware64 13, the problem is which aMule don't understand I have compiled wxWidget, and after wxGTK, with large files support(this is a
64bit system, is needed -largefile option?)and both, aMule2.2.5 and amuleCVS say me:

cecking gd.h usability... yes

configure: error:

        To continue you must recompile wxWidgets with support for
        large files enabled.


Unfortunately, Slackware64 is multilib but not have 32bit libs installed(Slamd64 have). This mean, which
I cannot run 32bit executable. Probably, i must download Slackware13 32bit and install 32bit libs on my
Slackware64 13 system. After, probably can install aMule and requires libs of the 32bit version.

However, Tanks you for your efforts.

OUTPUT:

[tinux@Athos:~]$ ls -l /usr/bin/wx*

Sorry, cannot query rpm, because Slackware 13 not use it.  The package are .txz or .tgz.


p.s. I have voluntary omitted libupnp because I prefer configure my router manually.

It is possible to use aMule on 64 bit for some years now. So the good news is, that it is no impossible mission. And it should be stable, too, but software is never perfect... We had a lot of problems with crypto++ crashes in the past years, too.

First of all: Which version of aMule do you use? We don't call the developmental version CVS for quite a while now, is it a current developmental snapshot?

Anyway, you have two installations of wxWidgets. One in /usr/ and another in /usr/local. I'm afraid you install to /usr/local when re-compiling aMule wxGTK, but aMule checks the installation in /usr first.

Please uninstall wx in /usr and it should compile better now. (Also see wiki article)

I'm running aMule on a 64 bits system (Fedora) for a while so you should be able to compile it without any problem. Few days ago I gave a try to wx 2.9.0 and I got that large file support error BUT wx 2.9.0 is a development version. Please make sure you are using wx 2.8.10 (latest stable).

Hi,

seem which have 2 version of wx because first I have installed it with default. After, I have removed it, some dir in /usr/lib deleted by hands because uninstaller not remove it, but surely I have
leaved some files in /usr/local/bin. I have installed it with --libdir=/usr/lib64 because in Slackware/Slackware64 all user libraries are prefixed with /usr. /usr/lib for 32bit and /usr/lib64 for 64bit.
However, no 32 bit libs are present for now.
I have tryed with amule 2.2.5 and, after, with latest tarball snapshot from cvs, not trunk.
However, is strange which i get the message "support for large files=no".
I have downloaded and installed wxWidget(wxALL) and, after wxGTK of 2.8.10 version. Not 2.90.

Now I re-try. First uninstall all wx-widgets. After, try to re-install it with this(the same of yesterday) command line parameters:
./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib64 --disable-debug --enable-optimize --enable-unicode
none options exist in configure for enable largefiles, because largefiles are the default. I only see the option:
--disable-largefile

Effectively, I have must do rm as the wiki, because after make uninstall(as root) many wx* was still present on the system.
I have deleted all "old" dir too. I have created a new clean dir with wxWidgets 2.8.10.

tar xjvf ~tinux/Arrivi/wxWidgets-2.8.10.tar.bz2

##some optimizations for make

 The installation of wxWidgets is finished.  On certain
 platforms (e.g. Linux) you'll now have to run ldconfig
 if you installed a shared library and also modify the
 LD_LIBRARY_PATH (or equivalent) environment variable.
 
 wxWidgets comes with no guarantees and doesn't claim
 to be suitable for any purpose.
 
 Read the wxWidgets Licence on licencing conditions.

## Ok, I not need upnp. Now run make ... :-)-~

make -j2

make install

##all ok!

Now I hope it work ...Incredible! After few minutes it not crash .. I have access to preferences, ecc without crash!
Old problem which I has with one of the slamd64 library, not remember the name of that lib but was always the same, now are not present!
However, for security, run aMule for my own script which restart it if crash.
Surely, the problem was many wx installed, as you sayd.

Many thanks for your support and good download with aMule!

Best regards

p.s. excuse me for my bad English!

I'm glad to hear it works now.
